If you have a fenced-in backyard where no other dogs have been, it is unlikely your puppy would be exposed to parvo..and at 4 months it should have had all it's vaccinations by now. It should be fine to take your puppy outside to potty. You may still want to avoid areas (grass or no grass) exposed to unknown dogs though |
Well said!!
Best to keep your dog in your own yard till all puppy vaccines are given!
