Puppy Culture Potluck: Ep28 - Is It All In How We Raise Them? Re-thinking the Nature vs Nurture Debate.

Listen Later

This week’s question is about whether doing Puppy Culture or any other early socialization program can guarantee good outcomes for puppies.

“…I was talking to a breeder about Puppy Culture and I told her that if she would just adopt the program, she would eliminate any temperament issues with her puppies.  Am I right about this?  Isn’t Puppy Culture a guarantee that puppies will have good outcomes?”

In this episode I tackle:

  • Re-thinking the line between nature and nurture
  • The partnership between breeders and puppy owners for raising a good dog
  • The evolutionary reasons why breeding “good” dogs is so difficult
