What is puppy socialization?
A socialized puppy is one that has been introduced to as many different sights, sounds, people, and situations as possible during his first few months of life (from approximately 3-4 weeks to 14 weeks of age). If a puppy isn’t properly socialized, as an adult dog he may react with fear or aggression toward those things he’s never seen or heard before. That’s why puppy socialization is an important part of raising a confident, happy companion. The process is simple and introducing your new puppy to the world around him can be fun for both of you.
