When you can start taking your puppy everywhere (socialization)?
You can start taking to places like petco after their first series of shots? I know theres like 3 series of rabies shots and then shot and what not. When you can start to take to dog parks or simply crossed many parks where other dogs? When it is safe for them to go where every contract and not some fatal disease? The puppy is like 7 weeks now.
Most good breeders do not release their dogs up to 8 weeks. breeders of toy dogs are usually 12 weeks. PetSmart and to "secure" shops, or even walking around the block, you are fine. We must not allow puppy to enter anything and watch for the poop and stuff. You can not have the puppy lives in a bubble - Socialization is very important for the first 2-6 months of life. How are exposures to things they encounter in life. Are still quite protected from colostrum and milk of the mother at this point (Yes, even if weaning was 3-4 weeks earlier) and contained antibodies. For parks and dog parks, I would not even go near this until the dog has all shots. Parvo was running rampant over the past year and is too much risk. This information is directly responsible by many different breeders I know.
