“Puppy’s First Twenty Weeks” – Protocol to Socializing Puppies
Live Online Webinar
Thursday, January 16, 2014
8:00-9:30 PM EST (Midnight GMT)
A puppy’s most critical time to learn is in the first twenty weeks of life. Therefore, we have only a small window of time to provide our pups with essential early socialization. Socialization, in its complete definition, is much more than introducing puppies to other dogs. It is gaining exposure to the world and learning to adhere to boundaries within a human culture’s norms. Wonder Puppy’s “Puppy’s First Twenty Weeks” Protocol to socializing puppies includes all of the ingredients needed to start a puppy on the path to mental, physical, and emotional wellness. It helps build confidence, encourages impulse control, and nurtures the parent-puppy relationship.
Discussion will follow, moderated by Shelly Volsche, CPDT-KA.
Approved for IAABC, CCPDT and NADOI CEU’sThis lecture will be recorded and available OnDemand.
