I am sure other people will have other opinions. It is not germs that you need to be so concerned with, it is diseases being brought in by other dog owners.
Some people say they do not wear their shoes in the house so as not to bring in diseases. Maybe I have just been lucky, but I have never brought disease home on my shoes.
However if I worked with dogs, I would probably not wear my work shoe in the house. |
Jeanie I beg to differ with you. What you are recommending is definately putting puppies at risk. The first 4 weeks their handling should be kept at a minimum. Yes, you always take the risk of someone tracking in Parvo, you don't know where they've been. Why take the risk.
