My baby doesnt have all his shots... but i want to take him to the beach... as long as he doesnt interact with strange dogs is that ok?

If he comes in contact wth an infected dogs poop he can get sick

See with my 2 now 2 year old I had her at games (big baseball/softball family lol) when she was 11 weeks. I made her stay on a big blanket (so no contact with doo doo) and she has been a team mascot ever since! With him though I have heard don't do it.....so I just don't know what to do???? I hate leaving him home and Bella knows when she sees the kids in uniform exactly what we are doing so then she gets all fired up if I make her stay home with the baby......

hmmm the vet says.......its ok for the beach..but no dog parks.. where there is alot of dog uhh stuff. LOL so me and Bejamin are off to the beach... i say bring him to the game!

diggy4 · 05-15-2007, 08:03 AM

Im on phone with vet right now....ill let ya know what they say

diggy4 · 05-15-2007, 08:10 AM

Okay mine says same thing....if he is on blanket and not exposed directly to poo poo or other dogs he is fine. He goes Friday for more shots....poor thing. Now the battle is the car....HE HATES IT....drools and howls....I think he thinks he is going back to the vet everytime....hopefully this passes.

By the way, we ALMOST named Diggy Benjamin! If Ben Wallace hadn't left the Pistons, that is what his name would be! BUT he went to Chicago Bulls so no Benjamin for us...lol I live right outside Detoit.

I have name envy right now...I love that name.

My vet told me to not take new puppies outside until 16 weeks unless they are in their own yard. She says even if they don't come into contact with poo, there are so many things a puppy can come in contact with....why risk it? you have their whole life to take them out and show them off....wait!
