I do know that my mentor basis alot of what she does based on her experiences, but so much has transpired and evolved in her 40+ years of breeding yorkies......I do know that I don't let my pups out until their 2nd vaccinations....and my mother is not allowed out on grass until she has weaned her pups.....and when she's brought back in I tend to be overly cautious....even though my dogs are in a controlled environment, I make sure her feet and undercarriage are completely washed before putting her back with the pups.... |
Mary, I think it is more of a regional problem. Does it seem that way to you? My puppies are not on the ground at all until 12 weeks and sometimes, not even then. Depends on the time of year it is. But the big dogs are. I guess I need to be more cautious about that.
