Going back to doggie daycare?
​Q: Can animals carry the virus that causes COVID-19 on their skin or fur and give it to me? 

A: According to the CDC, although we know certain bacteria and fungi can be carried on fur and hair, there is no evidence that viruses, including the virus that causes COVID-19, can spread to people from the skin, fur, or hair of pets. However, because animals can sometimes carry other germs that can make people sick, it’s always a good idea to practice healthy habits around pets and other animals, including washing hands before and after interacting with them.

Do NOT use disinfectant on your pet! 
​A regular soap and water bath is sufficient to remove coronavirus.

​Disinfectants for coronavirus

  • There are increasing numbers of reports of pets becoming sick due to surface disinfectants in the house. 
  • Some disinfectants are toxic to pets. Fortunately, there are a number of safe ways to clean and kill coronavirus without risking harm to your pets. Remember, good old soap and water for 20 seconds works well for hands!  Read on for more details (click here if the pdf below does not display on your mobile device).
