Laserion 08/22/22 12:18:03 AM #1:	Many years ago I had shaving cream on my face, but for some reason I had to step outside, where my dog was. She started going towards me, but stopped/hesitated for a second when she saw me. I wonder if she saw the foam on my face and got scared because she thought I had rabies. Is this possible, or a thing? Do animals recognize and avoid others that might get them terminally ill? --- There's no "would of", "should of" or "could of".

Those who don't care get bitten, get rabies and die before they have babies. --- There's no "would of", "should of" or "could of".

I think I remember reading somewhere in a book that some animals will avoid sick and contagious members of their group. --- 2DS FC tempest 1478 9807 1205 <cite>Lil_Bit83 posted [p:967488676] in Can dogs r...
