Puppy Development & Socialization

The first few months of a puppy's life shape who they become as an adult dog.

Puppyhood includes critical socialization windows where positive exposure to new experiences can prevent fear and anxiety later. This is also when habits form—both good and challenging ones.

We help puppy owners navigate this crucial period with confidence, setting foundations for a calm, well-adjusted adult dog.

Why Early Foundations Matter

Puppies are like sponges—they absorb experiences and form associations rapidly. What they learn (and do not learn) during the first 16 weeks especially can have lasting effects.

Our puppy programs focus on safe socialization, building calm behavior from the start, and helping you handle common challenges like mouthing, potty training, and settling.
