The old standard was that no going anywhere until the pup had all its shots but I know you know that is to late for soical skills work. 100 peole , places ,things and dogs by 16 weeks for good mental health.
So a good clean puppy class after first possible second shots and a vet ok... covering my butt here and go.
I had and will continue to take pups out on first shots but it has to be the owners comfort and understaqnding that a lot must get done by 16 weeks not to have fear and aggression concerns come up later.
