A friendly dog is a well socialized dog.
Socialization is Critical!
|
What people are saying: "We have started the puppy socialization class with Valerie and Jane and are delighted with it! " |
Did you know?
- Improperly socialized puppies are likely to develop behaviour problems.
- Aggression can be prevented with early and appropriate social exposure.
Do you understand what "socialization" is?
Do you know what you need to socialize your puppy to?
Here are just 3 of the 6 categories we cover and some examples:
People - all ages and sizes hugging, jogging, limping, sneezing.
Sounds - thunder, the doorbell, fireworks, motors, sirens, vacuums.
Things that move - cars, skateboarders, wheelchairs, strollers, children's toys.
Do you know the steps to socialize your puppy effectively?
Our Socialization Coaching Series guides you through the proper way to socialize your puppy so you can achieve your goals and enjoy a lifetime of joy with your dog.
Body Handling skills are critical too!
If your puppy has fear, anxiety and stress related to being touched or handled by you or by strangers, it can significantly impact their health and behaviour, and it can make visits to your veterinarian a very difficult experience for everyone.
Our series includes weekly exercises on Body Handling desensitization. We include specific tasks geared toward preparing your puppy to happily tolerate veterinary care and grooming requirements.
We also teach you some of the subtleties of Dog Body Language - how to read your dog and how to respond appropriately to what you see.
We can help you raise a truly friendly dog!
