Dogs and cats in very, very small numbers have been tested to have CV. It is believed that they can NOT spread it to humans. But, it is also known that CV is new and, therefore, not there is not enough research to know all the facts. Also, there is some evidence that CV can mutate and has mutated. So, the dog park managers may(?) be acting out of concerned caution?
