Socializing
your Puppy
How a puppy develops depends on his
breed, his individual genetic make-up,
and on his environment. The role you
play in nurturing your puppy is of vital
importance and it will have enormous
influence on the way he behaves for
the rest of his life.
Apuppy needs to understand and accept the
world he lives in so that he is calm and
confident in all situations he encounters.
Some pups may be braver than others, but if you
expose your puppy to different sights and sounds and
allow him to meet a variety of different people and
different animals, he will develop the skills to cope
without feeling fearful or threatened.
