Socialisation

Socialisation is the act of exposing your puppy to as many different sights, sounds, textures, smells, environments, people, animals in the socialisation window, which closes at around 16 weeks of age. In this time it is important for your puppy to have as many positive experiences with their world as possible – to teach them that their environment is a safe place to be.. Proper socialization can prevent a dog from being fearful of children, for example, or of riding in a car. It will help towards them developing into a well-mannered, emotionally sound companion.
