Yeah, but bacteria spreads by DIRECT contact. Unless their eyeball is directly touching butt or something that touched the butt, they’ll be fine. Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.
The real risk is getting licked in the eyeball, I think. I used to have a dog that would give my face a THOROUGH washing and, since it made him so happy, I tolerated it as long as I could. But it wouldn’t be infrequently that he would lick my eye lid enough to flip it up, yet I never got pink eye from his tongue.
So maybe saliva kills the ecoli? Or it gets neutralized somehow?

Wish I could be more helpful.
