| Question about Vaccinations If a puppy has there first set of shots and they're 8 weeks old, is it okay for them to be around other fully vaccinated dogs? The two dogs are 1 yr and 9 yrs old. They don't live outside but they do go on daily walks. (The little one especially, sometimes they 9 yr old is too lazy (it could also be that she sometimes has a hard time walking with arthritis, she's a newfoundland) and will refuse the walk.) If not when will it be okay... second or third set of shots? Thank you! Please let me know if I posted this in the wrong area. Last edited by rayray08; 09-11-2008 at 06:59 AM. Reason: wasn't sure if it was in the wrong section. |

| Some would say to be completely safe, to wait until all boosters are given.

| I would wait until your little one had all of the vaccines. They are prone to sickness when very young.
