Passive smoking - dogs?

Question

Can dogs, or any other pets, be affected (cancer) by passive smoking in the same way as humans?

Answer 1

Absolutely. You wouldn't smoke in front of your kids, so please don't smoke in front of your pets.

I just rescued an Amazon Parrot who has emphsyma because his previous owner smoked around him.

I am a smoker, but always smoke outside, because I don't want the damage I do to myself extend to my loved ones.

Answer 2

Yes,my mother smoked and both my beagle and my Chihuahua got chronic bronchitis from it. It can also cause cancer in dogs,cats and other animals.
