The virus can also

Not exact matches
If your puppy becomes infected, the virus can
contaminate everything your pet comes in contact with including food and water bowls, collars and leashes and the
surfaces of his
kennel.
Like the common human cold,
kennel cough is spread through the air,
contaminated surfaces, and, of course, direct exposure to a sick dog.
Since the dog flu virus spreads just like the human flu virus — through kisses, coughs, sneezes, and touching objects and
surfaces that have already been
contaminated — public doggy places like
kennels, groomers, and pet stores are where your dog is most likely to contract it.
