While dogs can be infected, it is mainly a human-to-human transmitted disease.
A small number of pets worldwide, including cats and dogs, have reportedly been infected with the virus, mostly after close contact with people with COVID-19.
Based on the limited information available to date, the risk of animals spreading COVID-19 to people is considered to be low.
If you become infected
To help prevent the spread of COVID-19, the CDC recommends limited interactions for pets with people outside the household.
If you become sick with COVID-19, you should ideally delegate your pet’s care to a family member or friend and isolate from them as much as possible.
If you live by yourself and are unable to find someone to care for your pet, wear a mask when dealing with them.
Refrain from hugging, petting, kissing or sharing food items with them, and wash your hands thoroughly after dealing with them.
Because there is a risk that people with COVID-19 could spread the virus to animals, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that pet owners limit their pet’s interaction with people outside the household. To do that, you can:
Do not wipe or bathe your pet with chemical disinfectants, alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, hand sanitizer, counter-cleaning wipes or other industrial or surface cleaners.
