Your New Puppy: Dog Training and Dog Behavior Lessons to Help You Turn Your New Puppy into a Well-Behaved Dog

YNP #088: Four Things You May Not Know About Socialization


Listen Later

Socialization is the most important training you can do for your puppy.  It’s also the most overlooked and misunderstood part of your puppy’s training.

When done correctly as a puppy, socialization creates a confident, well adjusted dog.  And who doesn’t want that for their puppy?  

I’ve gathered the 4 most common misconceptions about socialization to help you better understand what socialization is all about.

Each topic has it’s own podcast episode where you can learn even more.  

As always, the resources I talk about in this episode are listed all below. 

In this episode I talk about:
  • What socialization is. 
  • How socialization is about more than dogs.
  • How your puppy’s experience matters.
  • How age matters.
  • When socialization is about dogs.
  • Press play and enjoy!
