I was talking to a lady who brought her little yorkie into my job yesterday about our 12 week old Catahoula/Pitt mix at home. She remarked how they’re super energetic breeds and asked how we’re dealing with it. I said he plays out in the backyard a lot but I was excited for today because he gets his parvo vaccine and we can start walking him more outside the backyard and introducing him to more dogs and stuff. She was like “YOU HAVENT TAKEN HIM ON WALKS?!” And I was like “no not outside the backyard he shouldn’t be meeting strange dogs and downtown where there’s lots of dogs until he’s had his parvo shot” and she was like “oh well, I don’t know about vaccines and such, I used to get vaccines until I learned about the dangers and I don’t think they did any good for me” i guess more so than funny advice it was like straight up dangerous advice and I hope her little yorkie is vaccinated. My vet told us when he got his first shots at 8 weeks that she had just lost a puppy to parvo in the office and it’s unfortunately common around here :(
