It's very dependent on where you live......I live in the city and even when in Texas my dogs were in a controlled environment.....not saying one shouldn't, they should if in doubt and you are using your studs for public use.

But, since my studs aren't for public use!!!!! What I do worry about is my girls harboring an infection that can be detrimental to the litter. So, a vaginal culture is always done as soon as she comes into heat.
