Canine influenza, or dog flu, is a contagious respiratory disease caused by specific strains of the influenza virus that primarily affect dogs. Currently, there is no evidence to suggest that canine influenza can be transmitted to humans. The strains of the virus that cause canine influenza are different from those that infect humans, making cross-species transmission unlikely. However, it is always a good idea for dog owners to practice good hygiene, such as washing hands after handling their pets, especially if they are sick, to minimize any risk of spreading other zoonotic diseases. If you have concerns about your dog's health or behavior, consult your veterinarian for advice.
