I have a pretty strong cold for a few days now. My dog went spilled over my garbage trying to get a piece of sandwich I threw in there. I came into the room and he had already spilled all of the used tissues! He got my germs! How can I protect him so he won't get sick? Can I give him airborne or anything like that? I don't want my dog to go through what I'm going through right now!
Thanks!

Human viruses can not be passed on to a dog. He will be fine. My jr puppy just spent xmas weekend licking snotty kid noses and he is fine... Don't worry about it!- dd

It relies upon on the placement. If the canine is whelping a muddle of puppies or a cat has slightly diarhhea then the 1st option could be to shield it at homestead to work out if the placement gets extra useful. And whilst waiting human beings can ask different puppy proprietors in the event that they have any ideas on a thank you to handle the undertaking and ask for general advice. If it would not get extra useful then the subsequent option is the vet. some human beings do have some hum dingers on right here, yet for the main section the questions are stable, valid ones.

From what I have heard humans cannot pass a cold to their dogs.

A dog can't share your cold, but if you sneeze all over him, he might be able to carry it to another human in the household.

No. Dogs cannot catch colds or flu bugs from humans.
But, you can catch certain diseases from your dog. Mostly bacterial infections, especially ones that can attack your stomach.
Wash your hands after playing with your pets, or handling their dog-poo when you are picking it up to dispose of it.

Practically nothing can be transmitted from humans to dogs - tho it doesn't work the other way around, unfortunately.
Just remember, next time you're pregnant (joke!) to be sure any dog around is healthy.

Unless the cold mutated for dogs to get it, i really don't think it could happen.

I really don't think dogs are susceptible to human colds, but if you're worried, call your vet.
