I definitely would not take my puppy back there. Upper respiratory stuff is transmitted in the air...does not take actual nose touching for them to get it. And, yes, there are even worse things out there. PLUS, if you are letting her feet touch the floor, she is exposed to things. Too young to be out and about imo.

A few years ago, I took six pups to a photo shoot that was being held at a pet boutique that a friend of mine owned. There was a rescue that was benefitting, so I went to support them. Starting a couple of days after and for a month after that I had very sick pups. Vomiting and diarrhea. It was awful. Three of them ended up hospitalized with pancreatitis type symptoms (of course it was NOT that as it is not contagious). The vet felt that it was some kind of virus. There was no question in my mind that it started from that place. I shudder to think what might have happened if one had been a puppy. These pups were very sick!
