THE PET dog of a coronavirus patient has tested positive for the deadly disease.
The owner of the dog, Yvonne Chow Hau Yee, who lives in Hong Kong with her beloved Pomeranian, tested her pet pooch after being diagnosed with COVID-19.

Not funny at all.
Barking Ping!
Now we are off to pet quarantine in California?
The COVID19 virus is now revealing its true danger.
I wonder whichi animals can be carriers? All of them?
That means the food supply may be somewhat threatened.
Take your steak always well done!
And the 1st sensational headline o the day!
Dogs carry lots of sicknesses. Hopefully you wont find rabies or lyme disease too.
Perhaps this will put an end to the “emotional support” animal fiasco on planes.
The horror... The horror... Dogs and cats getting sick from humans. PETA will be mad about this.
Dogs already have their own coronavirus vaccine. I’ll bet immunized dogs would test positive for other coronaviruses.
Not good news for dogs worldwide. They are already slaughtering them in China by the tens of thousands. This may well set off a panic of mass murder of millions of dogs.
Indeed. I just had to turn off Fox News - their unrestrained glee at the stock market falling and their freedom to pump fear into people and hopefully damage Trump is beyond sickening.
Yup. This is a scenario right out of Stephen King’s “Pet Cemetary.”
On days when the stock market is down, Fox should just show the American Flag and play patriotic music. That would calm everyone down.
Cats are vaccinated for feline coronavirus.
There is no evidence that the dog is infected with the virus.
The “germs” were found in the dog’s mouth and nostrils - just like any other germs dogs get from sticking their faces into things.
I think we should be vigilant, but the hype is starting to get a bit out of hand.
“Take your steak always well done”
Surely you jest.
1) Isn’t the Sun a British tabloid?
2) If true, what does ‘testing positive’ mean? We don’t know antibodies yet, I thought ... I thought we directly test for the virus using a PCR chain reaction.
3) Again, if true, WHY IS A PRECIOUS TEST BEING WASTED ON A DOG???!?
The dog lied. His motives should be obvious. (”Yvonne Chow Hau Yee”)
From a few weeks ago....
China orders citizens to get rid of their pets - or risk having them CULLED - amid fears that animals could catch coronavirus
That it is.
But Not in
“12 Monkeys.”
That.....and people seriously need to stop kissing their dogs.
