Troy is puppy pad trained. He is 5 months old. I crate trained my other dogs and let them out outside early on but with Troy he ended up catching some feral cat worms from going outside too early. The pads are a convience to me since I work all day. Troy will reliably go to them even when I'm home. His area is a designated expen that I made with laminate floors. |
Great topic. I would LOVE my 2 to be trained for outdoor potty sessions only....... but Seymour has a hard time holding it for 8-10 hours. He even gets us up during the night. Most of the time they will go to the door to be taken out which is the best. But we still have the peepads for our "backups" and it is nice that they do both. It also is convenient when we travel and we can use the pads in the hotels. |

Of the 3,100+ dogs that we have helped treat during the past three years or so, a growing number of them have been fully vaccinated and up-to-date with all of their shots, regardless of whether they are puppies or adults, and yet they are still getting Parvo (and dying if not properly and promptly treated). Check out a blog post we wrote about vaccinations: ParvoBuster Blog Blog Archive Parvo Vaccinations - What The Vet Won?t Tell You! |

you are not bursting any bubbles... I do know about parvo. My simplified answer to the op was to let her know about the possibilities of the parvo virus living in the grass. OF COURSE there is NO 100% guarantee, (nor did I say that a vaccination is a guarantee) that ANY dog will not get parvo, vaccinated or not.... just that generally the vaccine will HELP prevent your puppy from getting parvo. The purpose of my post was NOT to debate the effectiveness of the parvo vaccine, but to educate the OP about the dangers of parvo with an UNVACCINATED young puppy. If you have a fenced yard where other neighborhood dogs do not have access, your puppy will generally be SAFE once it has had it's shots. |
