The first reported case of a human-to-pet monkeypox transmission was found in France in July. This case has established that the pets are at risk of catching the disease from their owners. Now it has become all the more important to safeguard our pets against the same. The research is still going on as to which different animal species are at risk of getting this disease from humans, but dogs are able to get it,
The symptoms to look out for are fever, lethargy, joint pains, and skin lesions. If you or any family member has been diagnosed with monkeypox or experiencing the above symptoms it is absolutely necessary to keep your distance from your pet dog.
Dr Vinod Sharma, Head of Veterinary Services at DCC Animal Hospital, shares some light on current status of research on the matter and ways to keep our pets safe.
