The more things the puppies can be introduced to during this period the better socialized the puppy will be and the less fearful of day-to-day encounters. The BOYZ have had many visitors and have heard neighborhood noises like garbage trucks, tree trimmers, dogs barking, met another dog and have had tons of new experiences in and around the house.
Under socialized dogs are shy and fearful; I work hard to make sure my puppies are well socialized. This process goes on for months after our adoptive families take their puppies’ home. As responsible owners, it is the responsibility of the new owners to continue this process and not just keep their new puppy at home.
It is VERY important that new puppy owners continue the socialization process to assure a well socialized dog when they mature.
