Answer #2

Nope, she won’t get it. The flu is not Zoonotic, which means passing from animal to human or vice versa.

You can catch and transmit parasites like worms and also certain types of manges from dog to human or human to dog, but not the flu.

Answer #3

I doubt your dog will actually get flu. I mean, it’s not very easy to catch. Anyway, dogs are used to eating weird stuff like that…

Answer #4

It’s highly unlikely that your dog will get sick from it. It’s not completely impossible, but I think your little doggy will be alright.

Answer #5

no theres a dif betwen animal flu and people flu
