E. Coli is a world wide contaminant and exists everywhere (not just in the dog's poo -- the dog got it from your environment somewhere). So, the answer is "yes" you can contract it, but whether or not it will affect you, and how greatly it will affect you will be based on the level of contamination and how much natural immunity you have to the bacteria.

everyone has e-coli within their gut including dogs. It is only harmul when it gets to a place where it is not supposed to be ie. outside the gut.
Make sure when handling feaces that you always wash your hands very well. You will become unwell if the e-coli is transfered from feaces to the mouth.
Just be extra vigilant at the moment with cleaning up after your dog and every time you touch him

Sorry on your toddler's problems! specific, your canines might desire to technically bypass e coli on your toddler, yet so might desire to strangers, nutrition, toys, youngsters, you, or perhaps herself (if she's been digging around)... the record is going on. you could purely do a lot to maintain toddler's area germ-unfastened, so i does not hardship too a lot approximately eventualities. that's the two in all probability that a grimy-exceeded stranger surpassed the trojan horse. i might shop fido even with the shown fact that. some super reward of a young person having a canines, or perhaps some messiness, outweighs the alternative. do purely your superb to maintain your toddler's diaper section and palms sparkling and you will possibly desire to do ok interior the destiny.

e-coli is a bacteria.
It is capable of being transferred.
Until he gets better I wouldn't let him lick me (he licks himself in some nasty places ayway...).
After touching the dog, wash your hands before touching yourself. Don't wipe your eyes, eat, smoke, chew your nails, etc. until you've disenfected your hands.

yes but with a bit of care, you won't.
mainly, wash your hands before you handle or eat food or drink. you contract it via the faecal-oral route, which is a posh way of saying eating sh1t.
also, clean your kitchen with an antibacterial cleaner before making any food.

It is a bacteria in his feces. If you do not wash your hands after touching him (remember he licks his butt and then his fur to clean himself) you can get the bacteria.
