Puppy Socialization and Training

Start your puppy’s socialization as early as eight weeks. It’s vital for both dogs and their owners. So join us for some fun and learn new ways to challenge your dog.

Poorly socialized dogs are much more likely to react with fear or aggression to unfamiliar people, dogs, and experiences. Dogs who are relaxed about honking horns, cats, cyclists, veterinary examinations, crowds, and long stairwells are easier and safer to live with than dogs who find these situations threatening. Well-socialized dogs also live much more relaxed, peaceful and happy lives than dogs who are constantly stressed out by their environment.

Well-socialized puppies usually develop into safer, more relaxed, and enjoyable dogs. This is because they’re more comfortable in a wider variety of situations than poorly socialized dogs. They’re less likely to behave fearfully or aggressively when faced with something new.
