Can't you take him to a park for a run?

RE: How did covid affect your pets ?

no you cant always take your pets to parks, some pets and animals need to be in nature or go out once a while and going to a park wont do the thing

In my neighborhood, we didn't have many pets but since corona, almost every neighbor got a dog or at least a cat. And it's all just to go for a walk any time! Sometimes people amuse me. In a bad way.

We currently have one (inside) cat and I think she wonders why we're home that much lately.  That's it.

My dog always had a lot of separation issues but he got kind of got used to me leaving for work since it was a routine thing. But now that I'm always here he loses his shit and barks a lot when I'm going to run some errand like the grocery.

You can see the fear in his face when I pick the bag I usually bring with me :\

I don't let my dog out now covid, I love him so much, so he also needs to be taken care of.

As a medical expert, fresh air and exercise are important for both of you.  You are less likely to get COVID outdoors.  I go out and maintain 12 feet of distancing or more.

Although pets may and can get COVID, it must occur through close contact.  There is no reason not to walk them outdoors.  

RE: How did covid affect your pets ?

It didn't really affect them much on our part since I still take them out for a walk once in a while.

My GSD loves it because there was limited staff at our office she was allowed to come with me to work.

Animals are also affected by this virus, and I worry about my dog. We walk through the park but very far from people.

I live in a house so we have at least a backyard, but those who live in apartments, poor pets

There is no evidence that COVID is spread by pets and only limited evidence that they can catch it.

I can assure everybody that our cat regularly practices social distancing and has never ventured outside without a mask.

That is funny.  

Even if you let you cat or dog outside.  COVID is not a very resilient virus.  It will not live long in the wild.  When placed on most surfaces, it will denature or be destroyed in a matter of minutes to 1-2 hours.
