I wonder if that affects dogs as well? My dog has killed and eaten as many or more than I have shot.

I asked my wife (she's a vet) and she has never heard of a case where dogs have contracted Hansen's disease (leprosy) from an armadillo. Two of her books actually have stated that the only known carriers of Hansen's are Humans, Armadillos and Bonobo monkeys from central Africa.
