Can Dogs Get Coronavirus? – American Kennel Club

Dogs get a different strain of the virus and they are routinely vaccinated for it. Nothing new.

funny, I drove past the dog park on Moyer Loop yesterday, saw the folks walking their dogs in and those inside with their dogs and my only thought was:

'well they must be happy that things are opening up a bit'

guess I'm not cut out to be an enforcer...but then again, we don't have a dog, so I wouldn't be going there anyway

On the other hand, not one dog owner was wearing a mask and several where all gathered together talking. This is the same reason they closed the pools, because some entitled Villagers don't think any rules that have been put in place should apply to them.

Things are being done slowly and carefully to return to some sense on normalcy around here and now a few will screw that up. And when the parks are closed again because the rules are being ignored, they'll be the first to complain.

It's a Dog Park, not a human park. I made my dog wear a mask and had her practice social distancing.

Why would you have to wear a mask in the open air? The numbers show that most of the bad news is coming from nursing homes and enclosed spaces.

Why wouldn't you wear a mask in a dog park? Have you smelled one recently? Oh you mean for the virus, yeah I wouldn't wear one either.

No where does it say you have to wear a mask.
Only to follow the 6’ social distancing guidelines, bring your own dog water dish and dog toy. Follow all county ordinance regarding pets, dog owners are responsible for any injuries caused by their dog (s), Dogs must wear current licensing tags, waste must be picked up and taken home for disposal.
Always “carry” water, disinfecting wipes, hand sanitizer, face mask, photo & village ID.
Limit visit to 60 minutes.

Masks are suggested but no requirement. Read the signs.
