Can I pass my cold to my Babies?

[Vikinggirl]

I was wondering if a cold can be passed to your dog. I caught my Grandsons' cold, nose is a faucet, scratchy throat, coughing up a lung, no fever. A it possible to give my cold to Dozer and Blossom? I don't want them getting sick.

As you can see from the other post you can not pass it on the them. But I just wanted to say hope you feel better soon. Bully kisses do help you feel better though.

Oh good , I wasn't sure, I thought I had read on here that some dogs had gotten the flu or bug from owners, so wasn't sure if colds could be passed too. Otherwise I wouldn't have handled their food and water, and let my husband do it. That's good to, know, so I can just cuddle and snuggle. Thanks for the well wishes, it's not really that bad sickness wise. I'm not feeling flat out or I'll, just mostly a scratchy throat, that makes my throat constantly tickle and I'm coughing like crazy. That's the worst, especially when sleeping, or should I say not sleeping, and my nose is like a faucet. It's just a virus, so hopefully will go away soon. The cough is the worst of it.
