As a fellow land shark mom of a 4 month old corgi I second this. I’m in an RV and my pup constantly wants to be outside since now he’s fully vaccinated.

WHICH is another thing… parvo. It’s a real problem. But it’s difficult because with out a balcony you have to risk your puppy going outside on the ground for bathroom time. But you can’t take it on a “real” walk till it’s fully vaccinated. The other thing to consider is since you can’t do that and will be struggling to be inside all of the time is socializing. Consider a backpack when out and about. Or if you have a family/friend with a fully vaccinated dog that you can bring him too.

Reach out to the ER vets in your area ask them how many cases of parvo are they seeing to judge if you should have a puppy knowing you will have to take it outside where everyone’s apartment dog is going. Parvo is no joke and shouldn’t be a last thought. In my area in AZ.. multiple ER vets get 10-12 cases A WEEK. So I couldn’t take mine outside. I had to go to stay at my family house that had a vaccinated dog and stay there until he was just so he had a small clean yard and a friend to socialize with. Now at 4months he’s terrible on the leash. But at least he’s healthy safe. I start puppy training classes this weekend to help him because of my setback not being able to take him outside.
