With no signs of the global coronavirus outbreak slowing, people have been asking if they should worry about their pets as well as their families.

The coronavirus is thought to have originated in animals, so it’s unsurprising that many pet owners are worried about their beloved pet catching it.

Last week a dog in Hong Kong whose owner has coronavirus was tested positive. The dog has been quarantined by officials, suggesting they have concerns that the pet could pass on the disease.

 The Brazilian influencer Israel Cassol aka ‘The Birkin Boy’ who now resides in London, has decided to take care of himself and his beloved dog Toby, 8 years old.

The pooch is now wearing his customized mask created by Israel, even though when posting a snap on Instagram, the influencer received a number of negative comments and messages.
