The German Shepherd was sent for quarantine with another mixed breed dog, which tested negative.
The department of agriculture said it would continue to monitor and repeatedly test both dogs.
“It strongly advises that mammalian pet animals including dogs and cats from households with people confirmed as infected with Covid-19, or close contacts of Covid-19 infected people, should be put under quarantine in AFCD facilities,” the statement said.
“Pet owners are reminded to maintain good hygiene practices and under no circumstances should they abandon their pets.”
