typically it's species specific. years ago i was a veterinary technician. corona is a virus frequently found in certain breeds, especially pugs. there has been a vaccine for dog corona as long as i can remember, & those with certain pet breeds will have their vet recommend it. our pug gets it every year along with distemper.
