How can I tell if my dog has a cold?

[MBrown]

He has watery eyes and is rubbing his face a lot and has an occasional sneeze. Is this anything to worry about? Can I catch it?

Your dog may just have allergies, take him to the vet for testing.

Dog getting a cold? More likely allergies. My dog does the same thing in the summer, when theres a lot of pollen in the air.

dogs don't catch colds

sounds like a manufacturer defect, return him to exchange for a new unit

Make out with him for about 5 minutes. Use lots of tongue. Wait one week. If you get a cold then he probably had one and gave it to you.

Whut?

I find that rather hard to believe. There are no canine "colds"?
