I've really been enjoying long walks through a nearly deserted Central Park with my pup. And I'm glad for the company while stuck in the apartment.
Several dog owners in the building have agreed that we'll each step up to the plate if one of us becomes unable to care for their mutt. (Well, mine is probably the only mutt. The rest are likely purebreds in this bougie building.) So I assume I'd either grab theirs for the duration, or them mine.
I've read that the virus wouldn't live as long an a porous surface like dog fur as it would on, say, metal or plastic. I guess if I were truly concerned I could rush the new foster dog to the tub and bathe her.
But like others, my vote is go for it.
