Fully Vaccinated vs Socialization - Should You Wait Until You Pup Is Fully Vaccinated

"My puppy's feet can't touch the ground until he's fully vaccinated."  Is this the best advice for a puppy? The Primary and most important time for puppy socialization is the first three months of life. During this time puppies should be exposed to as many new people, animals, stimuli and environments as can be achieved safely and without causing overstimulation manifested as excessive fear, withdrawal or avoidance behavior. For this reason, the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior believes that it should be the standard of care for puppies to receive such socialization before they are fully vaccinated.  Learn more about when and how to socialize your puppy in this episode of The Naughty Dog Podcast.
