Pregnant women who own dogs are basically not infected with toxoplasmosis.
Toxoplasma gondii is mostly found in cats and their external feces, and the odds are that dogs will not be infected.
Although dogs are intermediate hosts of Toxoplasma gondii, the parasite can only be found in the dog’s body and does not appear in its feces. Therefore, pregnant women who own dogs are basically not at risk for toxoplasmosis infection. The main host of Toxoplasma gondii is the cat, and it can be found in the cat’s external feces. Therefore, pregnant women who keep cats should pay extra attention.
Pregnant women should pay attention to the hygiene of pets during pregnancy as their immunity is relatively low. Be careful to sterilize the food you eat and the clothes you wear.
Please consult a doctor if you have any discomfort.
