I thought puppies could go out one week after their second injection but when Rocky got his today, the vet said 2 weeks It's seems like we have been waiting ages to take him out and now we have to wait another 2 weeks

What did others do - one or two weeks?

my vet said 8 - 14 days
I waited 14 days to be sure as i was kinda confused myself

My pups had their second vac last week thursday and they could go out for the first time yesterday

Mine go out before their vaccs, so there is no option for me.

1 week but I didn't wait that long with our pups! D

Our Vet advised us that we could take Mia out 1 week after her 2nd jab.

As far as I see it the risk of delayed socialisation is worse than the dangers posed after the dog has recieved both injections and already waited a week. How old is the pup now?

i think officially its a week, but we took ted out straight away, we couldnt wait any longer

Good points from you both. I've always waited one week but your posts have made me question why I do that - especially as the pups are, I suppose, as much in danger of catching something from the older dogs in the house who are going out and could be bringing anything in!
