Episode #3 Effective Socialization

There is a critical socialization period for all puppies from 3 to 16 weeks old. Once this window closes, the effects are permanent for the life of your dog. It is so important to introduce your puppy to as many new people, animals, places, sights, sounds and smells as you safely can before that time ends. Make sure you are smart about where you take your unvaccinated puppy. Do not go to places where other dogs frequently roam. But do take your puppy out, carrying him or her as needed and help them have positive experiences with the world. If your puppy acts fearful, do NOT force them to investigate the scary something or someone. Instead, move on to something else and make a note to revisit that item on a later date. www.baxterandbella.com/learn-moreSounds Socialization Trackhttps://youtu.be/HoI-tAvQIIISupport the showFollow us on social mediaInstagram @BAXTERandBella Facebook @TheOnlinePuppySchool YouTube @BAXTERandBellaSubscribe to our site for FREE weekly training tips!
