Your pup is only a baby- this is a great time to start crate training, there are many instances where it comes in handy for a pup to understand a crate is a good place.

I agree and would like to add that at 15 weeks your baby may not be through with all of its shots. A young puppy needs to be protected from a crowd of people and other dogs that it doesn't live with unit shots are done. As for small children, there will be alot of excitement already and to add little people into the mix can create a bad moment. When Mina is introduced to little people I try to pick a quiet moment so both the children and the dog are not already overly excited.

I hope that you have a good time at the party and are able to work out what is best for both you and your baby.
