Question

Can dogs the poison ivy?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Though cases of a dog being affected by poison ivy are rare, if you have a canine companion with sensitive skin, you should keep him away from the plant, just in case. “After being in an area with poison ivy or oak, you should wash your dog,” Nold suggests.

Answer 2

Unfortunately, yes, your dog can get poison ivy. Fortunately, dogs getting poison ivy is not as common as it is in humans. It is tougher for poison ivy to make contact with the dog's skin since they are covered in protective fur. If your dog does get poison ivy it is easily treatable.
