But that's just me, better safe then sorry. My puppies were pad trained during this waiting period, at 5 months old they were 100% pad trained with no accidents, had all their core vaccines then were trained to potty out doors, by 7 months old they were 100 % house broken with no accidents and had full access to the house. Like I said, better safe then sorry is who I am. |
I honestly get where you are coming from but most people can’t or won’t do that. The issues with that are they aren’t getting socialization when it’s the time they need it the most and need exposure to different things. Now I’m not saying walk them around a pet store or park or stuff like that but your own private yard is generally safe. After two sets of shots they are generally good and not likely to get anything.
