Q
Should patients undergoing chemo avoid exposure to dogs?
A
I noticed there was no answer for you.
If this is any help to you: I own eight dogs and in 2008 while undergoing chemotherapy, the dogs were close by all the time, as they are all inside dogs.
However, I had to stop allowing the dogs to sleep in our bed. Ring worm is often found in soil, the dogs paws obviously are in the soil and they transferred it onto the bed sheets and my legs!!! So, do be careful!
