when can my puppie go walking?

I have a 6 week old puppie BUT I don’t know when to take him for a walk.. Is he too young?

Answer #1

Make sure it has had all the shots and then you can walk it any time!!! Its good to walk them at this age because they need to be tought how to walk on a leash!! just don’t wear him out!! good luck!! any more Q’s funmail me!! Kirsten<3

Answer #2

Yeah When Your Puppie Has Had All The Vacinations Things. Then Its Fine. But Your Puppy Might Get Scared Of Walks At First, Mine Did.

Answer #3

Yes! actually He should still be with his mother for about two more weeks.

Answer #4

If your puppy is weaned and being fed, potty trained etc. You should feed your puppy and immediately put him on a leash and take him out to potty at least 3 or 4 times daily. Most all puppies will feel the urge to potty/pee as soon as they have eaten. Note, I said on a leash. Therefore you control where your puppy will be walking and will be able to keep him/her from preditors and areas that are unsafe for him to be walking. Think about it… your other animals are going in and out bringing in all sorts of things on there feet/bodies.

Answer #5

your puppy should not go for walks where other dogs have been until your pup HAS HAD ALL OF THE BOOSTER VACCINES. Ask your vet. The hospital I work at we start at 8 weeks and booster every 3 weeks until the pup is about 18 weeks old. Just because they may have had one or two sets does not mean they are protected against virus like Parvo, Disptember and if they were to get bit by a wild animal they have not had there rabies yet and would need to be quartineed. Please talk to your doctor

Answer #6

when he has all of his shots. make sure all of them!!! promise me that.
