This was exactly why I stopped giving it - my dogs are mostly indoors or in our yard. We do the occasional walk on sidewalks and in recent years don't do anything in the woods or anything. I live in an urban area but we do have racoons and other carriers of the disease. I see racoons all the time so I always think about whether they have come into my yard and peed infectious urine out there. I would see my dogs sniffing around and think about it.
