@Misty I don't have a problem with my puppy socializing I want him to. But he hasn't had his complete rounds of puppy shots he's only 12 weeks. My problem was that he was in a purse carrier so I thought i would already have given a "vibe" not to touch. His carrier didnt just have him in it, it also had my drivers license, credit cards, insurance cards, etc. Ppl at the vet (where there are sick animals) should know better than to automatically assume a dog is friendly/healthy or that the owner feels comfortable with them being touched. Right now I dont feel comfy with other's touching him because his vacs are not complete and he is so small so it would be very taxing on his immune system to fight off germs some of these well meaning animal lovers may and do have from being around sick animals or pets who are immune but still carry the germs/virus. The only reason we were at the vet was to do his healthy pup exam. |
