See below: According to the CDC- a small number of dogs and cats have tested positive for the virus - after being in close contacts with infected humans- the risk of getting the virus from a pet a very. low - So if someone in your family is positive for the virus, you and your pets should be isolated from the infected individual -also don't let your pets interact with people outside the household

COVID 19: At least one dog has tested positive for COVID 19 as well as number of cats from WuHan. At this point, there are no documented cases of pets transmitting COVID 19 to humans. (It is the other way around).
