I wonder what the effects of covid-19 would be on a dog especially a pug!
Post info- A pug living in a North Carolina home with three people who have tested positive for coronavirus became the first U.S. dog diagnosed with the COVID-19 respiratory illness, the American Humane Society said on Tuesday.
The pooch apparently contracted the virus from the mother, father or son in the household who all have confirmed cases, a Humane Society spokeswoman said in a written statement.
Another daughter has tested negative for coronavirus, along with a second dog and a cat, the spokeswoman said.
This year is definitely going to be crazy to look back on!
