Is my unvaccinated puppy safe playing in the yard with my dog?

Question

My puppy is now 4 months old and has yet to get her last set of shots, I let her play in the back yard with my other dog who is a year old and parvo free with all his shots. Is what I'm doing wrong or dangerous for my dog? Pet's info: Dog | Husky | Female | unspayed | 3 months and 1 day old | 21 lbs

As long as Lola is only playing in your own yard with your other dog the risk for parvovirus infection is low. I would still recommend avoiding places like dog parks where you can't be sure of the health status of other dogs. If your yard has not had any dogs in it who were parvovirus positive in the last year you should be safe. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!
