i haven't read all the replies, but my experience with Ziggy:
I got him too young (8 weeks) and was super careful with him. Did take him to potty in my walled in yard at around 14 weeks. tBut now he is back with pee pad because summer is here and I haven't put him on flea meds yet..
I think it depends. My friend and I got our puppies two weeks apart from the same breeder. She took him immediatly everywhere with her and nothing happened to him. I didn't take Ziggy out (he was and is little- from growth chart he should be aroun 3.5-4lbs adult weight), but she (my friend) did force visit me when i got Ziggy, he got stressed and sick... 5000bucks worth of vet bills sick..
I am very over protective, haven't even walked him outside my yard yet and he's 19weeks old, BUT i think each person should follow their instincts with their baby and see if they're big and strong enoung to handle different situations
