Pet animals especially birds can be adversely affected by living in a smoky atmosphere. This is usually seen as exacerbation of chronic bronchitis in dogs and cats or the creation of potentially life-threatening respiratory infections in birds. With regards to cancer, the US National Library of Medicine Medline database yields 805 'hits' when queried about passive smoking and cancer, but only one discussion article if the query further specifies dogs or cats. Common sense would suggest that the risk factors may be comparable with man but there is unlikely to be any hard data out there.

Hardly at all. there are many other things that they suffer from far more.
The paranoia about passive smoking has been created by the medical industry to hide the real truth about cancer, which is mainly caused by vaccinations. I'll bet you get your pets vaccinated, and that is thousands of times more dangerous than a bit of passive smoke.

Yep. i think there are acually distinctive medical learn accessible linking 2d hand smoke to issues in domesticated housepets. and that i'm an employer believer in this. I as quickly as had an older foster canines that got here from a house with a heavy heavy smoker. The canines replaced right into a domestic dog mill canines, so he replaced into predisposed to epilepsy besides, yet he had the worst seizures that any one had ever seen. I honestly believe that the undesirable genetics mixed with the heavy smoking brought about the severity of this canines's seizures.

Yes pets do suffer from smoke. I know that in chihuahuas specifically, if they are around too much smoke it can cause respiratory problems. I know dogs don't like smoke.

Any animal (humans included) subjected to second hand smoke will suffer from passive smoking. Non-human animals can't complain about it however.

Yes! And of course, their lungs are much much smaller. I smoke but in another room, OUT the window with a fan blowing the smoke OUTSIDE. If you know anyone that smokes, and I know it's bad enough, please tell them to at least stop smoking around their pets.
