hi i have a dog who is 6 weeks old...but i would want to know is when can i take her outside like when will it be safe?





Hi Gloria
It's not safe for your puppy to be among other dogs, or in places where other dogs may have been, until she's had all her puppy shots.

These vaccinations are given 3 times, at 3 week intervals, and after that she will be able to play with other dogs, walk on the street, visit the park etc. If she's a small breed puppy you can take her out to visit other fully vaccinated dogs in their own home etc. as long as she is being carried or is in her own carrier. She must not touch the ground or play with unknown dogs.

You might be interested in my article on socialization for puppies as it has some tips and advice.

Best of luck with your new little girl.
