“Infection of dogs is very rare and they usually show only mild clinical signs and recover within a few days,” Middlemiss said in a statement. “There is no clear evidence that pets transmit the virus directly to humans.

“We will continue to monitor the situation closely and update our advice to pet owners should the situation change.

Dr Katherine Russell, consultant medical epidemiologist at Public Health England, said COVID can sometimes be transmitted from humans to pets and owners should wash their hands regularly, “including before and after contact with animals”.
