NEW YORK — A German shepherd in New York that had the first confirmed case of Covid-19 in a dog in the U.S. has died.
A USDA database of confirmed cases of the coronavirus in animals in the United States includes 12 dogs, 10 cats, a tiger and a lion. The agency says there is currently no evidence that animals play a significant role in spreading the coronavirus but it appears the virus can spread from people to animals in some situations.
