| Yes much too early. Don't bring your pup anywhere another dog could have been, so pretty much anywhere, until it's had all it's shots. At 3 months it should barely have had it's first or second set.

Donating YT 2000 Club Member | It is way too soon. Most puppies aren't fully innoculated until they are almost 16 weeks. And rabies shots after that. There is illnesses that puppies can acquire from going to dog parks and dog shows when they are little so be very careful. |

Donating YT 500 Club Member | Agree with capt noone. After all the shots + a couple weeks longer. In the meantime practice with him in the house to get used to harness & leash. They don't typically like them at first and need some time to get used to them. Put them on for awhile, let him drag the leash around on his own. Take them off for awhile then back on. Do this everyday, & he'll be more ready for the outside when the time comes.

| He's needs to finish all his shots plus two weeks for full immunity, somewhere around 18-20 weeks. Before then, antibodies he got from nursing interferes with is vaccinations putting him at risk for serious disease like Parvo. Parvovirus: Serious Diarrhea in Puppies & Dogs |
