YNP #063: My 7 Guidelines for Socializing Your Dog
Socializing your dog, especially when they are young is SUPER DUPER important. If you have listened to me at all then this is not news to you.
You know that you have to expose your dog to many different people, places, environments, sounds, textures, and, yes, dogs. This creates that confident, well adjusted dog that you can take anywhere and not have to worry about them. BUT we need to do it right. That is why I developed my 7 Guidelines for Socializing a Dog.
Not only do we want to expose our dog to all these different things and situations but we need to make sure that we create a good association!
In fact that is guideline #1!
In this episode I talk about:- Why socialization is important to do at a young age (3-16 weeks!).
- How to handle a shy dog.
- How to handle it when things go bad.
- How you, the human, need to act.
- How to create a good association.
Press play and enjoy!
