not to worry, we are replacing the yard w/ new sod, getting a new fence and not taking him ANYWHERE until he is 6 months old and titered. All people entering our house will bleach their shoes or take them off. we will use progard this time around too.
we are excited! oh and the best part is that i will be home w/ him for 9 weeks since that is summer vacation!  |
Congratulations on the new puppy.
Please read up on proper puppy socialization.
While parvo is a terrible infection to lose a pup to, please do not let that keep you from socializing your new pup adequately. 6 months is FAR too late to get started, and you will likely end up with far worse issues than physical illness.
If you insist upon not socializing this puppy properly, rethink your choice of breeds.
