It is easily treated by a vet and there is a vaccination for it as well. It is seldom life-threatening and your cat can't catch it. The more difficult problem is the possibility of parasites. Your shelter dog might have ear mites, or fleas, or hair loss caused by stress. You should make an appointment with your vet within a week of getting your dog and have it checked for these and other issues. Most of these are also easily treated. If your cat is vaccinated and on heartworm meds, she it will most probably be immune to the parasites as well. If serious illnesses are found, the shelter will take the dog back. Good luck in your endeavor! The most common thing seen in shelter dogs is Kennel cough. It is easily treated by a vet and there is a vaccination for it as well.
