Need Your Opinion/Advice Please !

We live in NYC (15th Floor) w/ our 3 month old Yorkie puppy (Lola) I want to train Lola to "do her thing" outside, but my husband insists it's unhealthy for me to be taking her out as often as I have to in order to train her ......- Any ideas ??
We have another appointment w/ the vet on Friday, so we'll obviously ask him too, but speaking from experience, do you have any opinions/suggestions ?
Thanks!!

Why would it be UNHEALTHY to take out your dog?

He's concerned b/c the city streets are full of pedestrian traffic, other dog's (and rats) feces and urine, etc. -

Her last round of shots is this Friday.
When I took her for her 1st visit to the vet (She had kennel cough) He said I could walk her, but not let her too close to other dogs/dog parks etc......

We kept our pup inside until she was fully vaccinated. She also had a touch of kennel cough. We live in a co-op complex with lots of dogs around and knew she would come in contact with some. It was a pain in the arse, but I didn't want to chance her getting even more sick. After her last round of shots, we started taking her outside. She had to go out about every four hours. Now, after a month, she goes out about 6 times a day.
