पिल्ला टेपहरू – पिल्ला हिड्नु ठीक छ?
म विश्वास गर्दछु कि यो तपाईको पप्पा हिड्नु भयो यसको अघि उसको खोप पहिले नै उसको खोप थियो। सामान्य ज्ञान प्रयोग गर्नुहोस् र तपाईंको आफ्नै यार्ड र छिमेकमा हिंड्नुहोस्। कुकुर पार्क र कुकुर समुद्री तटहरू जस्तै कुकुर ट्राफिकको साथ क्षेत्रहरू बेवास्ता गर्नुहोस्।
पिल्लालाई प्रयोग गर्दै, पिल्ला र पोटी प्रशिक्षणको समाजलाई पप्पीहरू सबै महत्त्वपूर्ण छन्। तर केही नयाँ पिल्ला मालिकहरू पछाडि पछाडि पछाडि पछाडि हिड्दछन् पप्पी “सुरक्षित” राख्नको लागि जबसम्म उसको सबै पिल्ला खोपहरू थिएनन्। (प्राय: months महिना पुरानो।)
मँको साथमा धेरै टिप्पणीहरू र ईमेलहरू प्राप्त गर्दछु, “मैले पिप्पी प्याडहरू प्रयोग गर्नुपर्नेछ किनकि म मेरो पिल्लालाई अर्को दुई महिनाको लागि बाहिर लिन सक्दिन।”
वा, “म कसरी मेरो पिल्ला प्रयोग गर्न सक्छु? उहाँ दिनभरि बाजा हुनुहुन्छ, तर मेरो पशुले उनलाई तीन हप्तासम्म आफ्नो घर भित्र राख्न भन्यो। ”
ठीक … yike।
म निश्चित छैन यदि VES ले साँच्चिकै मानिसहरूलाई आफ्नो घर भित्र आफ्नो पल्प्स राख्नको लागि हो भनेर बताउँदै छ वा यदि मानिसहरूले सल्लाह गलतफहमी छन् भने। हो, यो एक अथाह सतर्क हुनु राम्रो छ। तर तपाइँसँग पूर्ण रूपमा आफ्नो पिल्लालाई, या त तपाइँको पिल्लालाई अलग गर्नु पर्दैन।
त्यहाँ रोग को वास्तविक जोखिमहरू छन् जस्तै पायभो र डिस्को, र यो किन केहि पशुहरूले तपाइँको पिल्ला घर भित्रै राख्न सिफारिस गर्दछ।
तर त्यहाँ कुकुरलाई पकाउन र व्यायाम गर्न जोखिमहरू पनि छन्। धेरै युवा र स्वस्थ कुकुरहरू व्यायाम, समाज र प्रशिक्षणको अभावका कारण प्रत्येक वर्ष आश्रयमा पूर्ण आदेश दिइन्छ।
त्यसोभए … तपाईंले आफ्नो क्षेत्र र सान्त्वना स्तरको लागि पेशेवर र विपरित हुनु पर्छ। Parvo केहि क्षेत्रहरुमा अधिक गम्भीर जोखिम हो र अन्य क्षेत्रहरु मा धेरै कम जोखिम।
तपाईंको कुकुरको पशु चिकित्सकले तपाईंलाई आफ्नो क्षेत्रको लागि उत्तम सल्लाह दिन सक्षम हुनेछ। तपाईं दोस्रो नामको लागि अर्को पशुलाई पनि कल गर्न सक्नुहुनेछ र स्थानीय प्राणीहरूले पनि जाँच गर्न सक्नुहुनेछ।

कुकुरहरू र खोपहरू र कुकुर बाहिर जान्छन्?
हामी सबैले हाम्रो आफ्नै पिल्लाको लागि उत्तम निर्णय गर्नुपर्दछ। त्यसो भए केवल किनकि म आफ्नै छिमेकमा पिल्ला हिड्न सहज छु, यसको मतलब यो तपाईंको लागि सही निर्णय हो।
मेरो ब्लगको एक पाठकले यस लेखमा टिप्पणी छोडे जुन मलाई यो शीर्षकको बारेमा सोच्यो। उसले लेख्यो:
“2. Parvo र लेप्ता र अन्य रोगहरू गम्भीर छन्, तर त्यहाँ जोखिम जोखिम सन्तुलन गर्न को लागी एक तरीकाले plpsies को अनुभव गर्न को लागी।”
राम्ररी भनिएको। पछि यस लेखमा, म कसरी सुरक्षित रूपमा सामूहिक रूपमा सामूहिक चलाउन सक्दछु र तपाईंको पप्पा प्रयोग गर्न सक्दछु।
प्रत्येक कुकुर मालिकले एक संवेदनशील सन्तुलन पाउनु पर्छ। सही सन्तुलन हामी प्रत्येकको लागि फरक हुनेछ, जहाँ हामी बस्दछौं, पिल्लाको उमेर र खोपहरूमा हाम्रो अवधारणा।
खोप पछि म कहिले मेरो पप्ला हिंड्न सक्छु?
जब मैले मेरो-हप्ताको पुरानो वेइमर पिल्लाहरू पाएँ, उनले उनको पहिलो पाभोमो / भाँडाकुनपरको खोजीकर्ताको खोपहरूको पहिलो भेट्टाए। यसको मतलब मैले अझै अर्को केही हप्तामा हाम्रो पशुतेरको लागि अगाडि बुकरहरू अनुसूची गर्नुपर्यो।
त्यो समयमा, म मेरो छिमेकमा फुटपाथमा मेरो पिल्लामा हिंडें। मैले उसलाई भारी कुकुर-व्यस्त स्थानहरूमा पक्रेर कुकुर बजार बीच वा पाल्कोको।
कुटीण प्रशिक्षणको लागि बाहिर उसलाई लैजानुहोस् र हिंड्नको लागि मेरो पिल्लाको सानो जोखिमको मूल्यको थियो। म उनलाई कहिले पनि तपाईको घरबाट 100% भित्र राख्नु हुँदैन।
तर म सान डिएगो काउन्टीमा एक मध्यम-वर्गीमा बस्ने ठाउँमा बस्छु जहाँ सबैले आफ्ना कुकुरहरू खोपेका थिए र आफ्नो कुकुरहरु
अवश्य पनि, अझै पनि एक मौका थियो कि मेरो पिपले बिरामी पारेको छ, तर म त्यो जोखिम लिन र उहाँसँग नियमित रूपमा हिंड्न इच्छुक थिएँ। (अन्य पप्पी मालिकहरूबाट दुई थप उदाहरणका लागि पढ्नुहोस्।)
कुकुर खोपहरू, कहिले हिड्नु पर्ने?
किनकि मैले मेरो पिल्ला बाहिर लिएका थिए, उसको पोटी प्रशिक्षणको साथ सजिलो समय थियो। मेरो पिल्ला राम्रो व्यवहार गरिएको थियो किनकि उसको पर्याप्त व्यायाम थियो। उनीसँग बिभिन्न व्यक्तिहरू, दर्शन, दर्शकहरू, दृश्यहरू र ध्वनि वरिपरि सामाजिक गर्ने मौका पनि थियो।
एक शक्तिशाली जातको लागि समाजता एक वेममा जस्तै महत्त्वपूर्ण छ।
इमानदार हुन, मलाई थाहा छैन म कसरी मेरो उच्च-उर्जा पकाली व्यवस्थित गरेको छु म उसलाई हिंड्न सक्दिन। उहाँ हिड्दै हाइपर हुनुहुन्थ्यो।
हो, त्यहाँ जोखिमहरू छन् जुन तपाईंको पिल्लाले पाल्भो जस्ता रोगलाई सम्पर्क गर्न सक्दछ यदि तपाईंले उसलाई हिंड्नको लागि लिनुभयो भने। यद्यपि यी जोखिमहरू केही क्षेत्रहरूमा कम छन् र अरूमा धेरै गैर-अस्तित्वमा छैनन्।
मेरो पोस्ट पनि हेर्नुहोस्: म कति टाढा मेरो पिल्ला हिड्दछु?
यी सबै खोपहरू भन्दा पहिले तपाईंको पिल्लालाई कसरी समाज गर्ने भन्नेमा सुझावहरू
मैले यस शीर्षकमा मेरो राय बनाएको छु, तर म अन्य पिल्पी मालिकहरूबाट केही विचारहरू साझेदारी गर्न चाहन्छु। मसँग तल तपाईंको लागि दुई उदाहरणहरू छन्।
टिप्पणीहरूको खण्डमा, त्यहाँ केहि राम्रो उदाहरणहरू छन्for your consideration. The consensus is most people do walk their puppies or start taking them to safe areas like friends’ houses with vaccinated dogs for socialization.
However, there are also examples in the comments of puppies getting sick from parvo.
And by all means, of course you can take your puppy out into your own yard!
Another great resource is behaviorist Dr. Patricia McConnell’s book, “The Puppy Primer.”
Here are two examples from other puppy owners. These will help you decide if you should walk your puppy before he’s had his vaccinations:
1. invite your friends over for puppy play dates.
Blogger Kimberly Gauthier recently raised two puppies – littermates Scout and Zoey, pictured below at 6 months old. I wanted to hear how she found the right balance. (Beautiful dogs, right?)
“I was really worried about canine parvo virus with our puppies, so dog parks, which have a host of risks, were out of the question,” Gauthier said.
One thing she did to help socialize her puppies was to invite friends over.
“No one can pass up an opportunity to spend time with puppies,” she said. “Everyone stayed for at least an hour just basking in puppy breath.”
She also signed the pups up for a training and socialization class once they’d had the required vaccinations. And, she took them to a “puppy play hour” on Sundays.
“This helped prepare them for pack walks,” Gauthier said. “We go on those with a friend with a puppy a few times a month and once a week with another friend who has two dogs.”

2. visit places where there are not a lot of dogs.
Colby Morita is a volunteer puppy raiser for groups such as guide Dogs of America and Canine support Teams. He writes about his experience on his blog here, and you may remember my interview with him on how to be a guide dog puppy raiser.
When Morita raises a guide dog puppy, he said he brings the puppy home at 7-8 weeks of age and attends guide dog puppy kindergarten right away.
It’s important to socialize the puppies while also being cautious of contagious illness like parvo, he said. avoid places frequented by unknown dogs, such as dog parks and pet stores, until the puppies have had their final series of vaccinations around 16 weeks.
He said he gets emails every day about this subject.
“My main thought is there is definitely increased risk of your puppy dying from contagious disease if you take him out of the house,” he said. “But there is far greater risk of your puppy ultimately getting euthanized because of behavior problems.”
He suggested some ways to socialize pups such as:
attending puppy classes
visiting friends’ homes
taking car rides
exposing the pups to different sounds and surfaces
“The list could go on and on,” he said. “When we first got Linus – not a guide dog pup – we grabbed a bag full of treats, a mat, and brought him outside the post office and asked people to give him a treat.”
Here are more tips for walking a puppy before he’s had his shots
I also thought of these ideas:
Take your puppy for walks around the neighborhood. avoid walking in busy places like dog beaches until she’s fully vaccinated.
Set up play dates with vaccinated, adult dogs that are tolerant of puppies. invite them over, or take your puppy there.
Safely secure your puppy in the car, and take her for rides to get her used to the car. I use the dog seatbelt from Mighty Paw.
Ask pet-obsessed friends if you can bring your puppy over for a half-hour or so.
Get your puppy used to different things at home such as nail trims, having a bath & the sound of the vacuum. Also, the sound of your kid’s band instrument, seeing family members dressed in big hats and coats, etc.
Use lots of treats to make new experiences positive for your puppy. My favorite are the wellness Well Bites training treats

Puppy vaccination schedule
Puppies in the united states are typically vaccinated against:
parvovirus
distemper
rabies
Every region is a bit different and not all vaccines are the same, so talk with your own vet and your puppies breeder or rescue for the best plan for your own puppy.
I live in Montana, and our vet vaccinates all puppies against the three illness I mentioned above. These are the most serious illness and can cause severe illness or death.
Parvo and distemper vaccinations for puppies
Our vet gives parvo and distemper vaccines together in a combo starting when a puppy is 6 weeks old and again every 3 weeks until the puppy is 16 weeks old. The dog will get a booster one year later and then a vaccine every 3 years.
The breeder or shelter will typically give your puppy that initial round of vaccines around 6 weeks. Ask them for a record of this and bring it to your puppy’s first vet appointment.
Rabies vaccination for puppies
Our vet gives puppies the rabies vaccine at 14-16 weeks. then the dog will get a booster one year later. After that, it’s every 3 years.
Optional vaccines for puppies
Bordetella (kennel cough) is an optional vaccine and there are several other optional vaccines such as Lyme disease, Leptospirosis and a rattlesnake vaccine.
Depending on where you live and what you make with your puppy, you may want to consider these vaccines. Bordetella is typically required if you want to board your puppy or take your puppy to dog daycare, for example.
So how about the rest of you?
Have you recently raised a puppy? how did you find the right balance of when to walk your puppy?
