Thursday. "Are they acting listless, or lethargic, or not wanting to eat? In addition, keeping a close eye on their respiratory rate: Are they breathing faster? And their respiratory effort: Are they needing to take deeper breaths to catch their breaths?" Cole said that while dogs can contract other illnesses like COVID-19 from their owners, it is unlikely they can pass dog flu on to humans."There's never been a report of canine influenza moving into people, but the risk isn't absolutely zero, so it's important to be prudent," he added.
In addition, Cole said that pet owners in regions with larger outbreaks of dog flu should keep dogs away from congregate settings, and seek to get them vaccinated, if possible. "With canine influenza there are flu vaccines available," Cole told CBS News. "Those flu vaccines have been on short supply recently, so it's really important that you reach out to your veterinarian to see if it's available to them in the first place."'What's most important is keeping a close eye on our pets to make sure they're doing okay and seeking out veterinarian care whenever they need it," Cole added.
