When should my Shih Tzu puppy get his second shot and meet other dogs?

Question

I just got a Shih Tzu puppy (was born 10/18/2017), he has his first vaccination, I was wondering when I should take him in to get his second vaccination and when can he come in contact with other dogs? Pet's info: Dog | Shih Tzu | Male | 1 month and 21 days old

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Ollile would need his next DHPP vaccine 3-4 weeks after the first one was given. I only recommend that puppy's still getting their vaccines only contact other dogs that are known to be completely vaccinated and other puppies that are up to date and NOT sick. That means no dog parks or strange dogs. It is fine to walk around the neighborhood and on side walks in parks. I deem them safe to go to dog parks 2 weeks after their final puppy shots. I hope this helps and I wish you and Ollie the best!
