conjutivitis

muffysmom
I would like to know if conjuntivitis is contagious to humans. I have Grandchildren and I am very concerned about them catching it from my other dog who is being treated for it. Thank you for your help.

No, it's a different strain. It is not contagious, but just as a precaution, I would wash your hands after treating the affected eyes.  I only know this because my dog just recently had this.
