So much is being said about COVID-19 and we dog mums are naturally concerned about our furry kids! Is it harmful? Can they be infected? Don’t worry the fellow dog mamas at Gals Best Friends have chatted with NYC’s best vet, Dr. Lisa Lippman. And here I’m sharing what we know to date. ⠀⠀ 
The COVID-19 virus can potentially hang out on the dog the way it can live on any surface such as a table. We don’t believe that dogs can get it and transmit it to other dogs. And here is no evidence right now that that you can transmit it to your dog either. But if you have COVID-19 or your dog has been around any infected person, as of right now, as a precaution you should quarantine your dog with yourself for the recommended 14 days.

Of course always remember to wash your hands, don’t touch your face, use hand sanitizer and have extra supplies on hand for a month or so of dog food and and any required pet medications. Also please be responsible. Do not travel anywhere with your furry kid especially, unless absolutely necessary and avoid crowded places. 

Finally do not panic! If we follow basic hygiene procedures and take some extra precautions, we can beat this! Now there’s no better time to use the excuse “Sorry I can’t. I have plans with my dog”.

Queen Koala 👑🐨 – Finally, my illustration of Brian tenderly holding a koala 🥰 Actually, here’s a sweet little story behind it all.. Ever since I heard the first heartbreaking news of the Australian bushfires in January, I immediately wanted to do something to help. Inspired by Queen’s (then) upcoming tour in Australia, and my admiration for Brian’s love of animals, I had this lovely idea of drawing him holding a koala, with the intention of donating profits from the illustration. I started searching online for photos of Brian holding a koala, for reference, but couldn’t find any. So I chose this photo of him embracing a dog..it was the closest I could get. But then procrastination happened...as always! Until I woke up one day to this lovely photo of Brian playing his guitar to a koala....and then hundreds of drawings of that one beautiful moment in time! So yeah...Brian literally brought my imagination to life! 😍 And I’m probably the last one to draw this now famous moment of Brian & Koala! Anyway, finally it’s here...and it could be yours too! It’s available from my Etsy shop and I will donate 50% of proceeds of this piece to @firefightaustralia It’s not too late! Koalas aren’t extinct, but their future is in danger. Let’s all help while we still can! Your support is greatly appreciated. Link in bio to purchase 💙❤️ @brianmayforreal https://www.instagram.com/p/B8zZF48n1jx/?igshid=157ajcfgnzq23

This can help you spot any problems early and so prevent disease. Keep an eye out for any unusual lumps and bumps, signs of fleas and skin conditions. If you think there is anything wrong with your furry kid, see your vet immediately. 🐾⛑ (at Chic Odyssey Illustration & Design Studio) https://www.instagram.com/p/B7WCkLWhdyA/?igshid=18r81jz1b5q

Prince was our very first dog! 🐩 A friend gifted him to my dad, when he (Prince) was still just a few weeks old. And as weeks turned to months and months turned to years, I learnt so much about having a four legged best friend. I was still a teenager who knew nothing about these compassionate creatures. So as -Prince grew older and frail, I grew to love and treasure him even more. Yesterday it’s been 15 years since he passed away and despite the commitment, responsibility and heartache of losing a best friend it entails, I just knew that I couldn’t live my life without having a furry kid beside me. That’s when my journey as a dog mum began. And I owe it all to Prince. “Dogs come into our lives to teach us about love and loyalty. They depart to teach us about loss. A new dog never replaces an old dog; it merely expands the heart. If you have loved many dogs, your heart is very big.” — Erica Jong Swipe left for a little photo tribute to my first furry love 💙🐾 https://www.instagram.com/p/B7QWS2mHPOa/?igshid=87durfgrxyaz
