Reports from Switzerland even suggested a case of transmission to a pet \u2014 and while researchers noted it was an isolated incident, it&#8217;s understandable that pet owners are feeling anxious. One of the biggest daily dilemmas for pet owners during this outbreak is whether to take their pets outside for a walk. Going out carries risks, but pets still need regular exercise and a chance to burn off energy. As long as you take the right precautions before and after, you can significantly reduce the risk!<\/p>\n<p>1. Be mindful of your surroundings<\/p>\n<p>When taking your pet out for a walk, avoid crowded areas. Make sure your pet doesn&#8217;t eat anything off the ground, and try to limit contact between your pet and other animals or people!<\/p>\n<p>2. Disinfect properly<\/p>\n<p>Before heading out, bring along clean towels, disinfectant, and saline solution so you can clean up right away if your pet touches something dirty. When you get home, use a towel or wet wipes to clean the mouth, nose, lower belly, genitals, and paws \u2014 the areas most likely to pick up germs \u2014 then follow up with disinfectant for a more thorough clean.<\/p>\n<p>3. Keep up with vaccinations<\/p>\n<p>The best way to guard against COVID-19 is to maintain a strong immune system. A healthy immune system can fend off most viruses and chronic illnesses. Make sure to take your pet in for their core vaccines on schedule \u2014 it&#8217;s one of the best things you can do for their long-term health!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Want to know how to effectively get rid of fleas?
