I know this is an older post but since socialization is so important what would you do to maximize socialization and minimize risk in an area that is truly a parvo hot zone? Also is there much hope for socializing a pup/dog that has not been socialized during the critical developmental window. I realize this would be a much slower process requiring a lot of patience and dedication but is it even possible?
I'm buying a puppy carrier so I can expose my puppy to lots of new people and places without chancing them getting a disease from contaminated ground. They're super cute. I can't wait to get my Klee Kai this summer :) (I'd get one from you, but california is a little ways away from NS, Canada lol)
