First time dog owner here. How many weeks old would it be safe to bring a new puppy out to places like the local park and playground, or just walking around the neighborhood?

"The AVMA suggests that puppies should begin socialization classes at 8 weeks of age I believe. I wouldn't take a puppy to a dog park, but definitely get them out there and socialized as much as possible in safer areas."

"I would talk to your vet; parvo risks vary widely depending on where you live. It also depends on when vaccines started and the type. It used to be not until 16 weeks that pups were fully vaccinated, but with the newer high-titer vaccines most…"

"I was able to tell by 11weeks tht my corgi was going to be a red/white. His mom was red/white but his dad was a tri-colored. My corgi had some black fur initially but it faded away over the weeks."

Jane commented on Eric and Wicket's blog post Corgi colors, when can you tell?
"I believe the BHT is a recessive color, so yes the puppy could end up as a BHT even if neither of the parents are. I really doubt your kids will care what color he is once they actually have the puppy though. :)"
