Just a word of caution about taking her out in public. First day she might be stressed from the trip, leaving everything familiar and being in a new strange place. I would get her used to her new home and new family before anything else.
When you do take her out, be careful where you take her. She will not have all her shots yet. Try to avoid places with strange dogs. Lots of people like to take their new puppies to places like Petsmart. It's a perfect place for a new puppy to pick something up. I think socializing with people and animals is very important, you just have to be careful going about it before they are immunized for deadly diseases.

You can take her outside to potty right away as long as it's not where unknown dogs are going too.


Welcome to YT. I can't wait to see pictures.
