Socialization
As a dog’s owner it’s your responsibility to ensure that your pup is confident, well-adjusted, and able to handle new situations. In this process, socialization is crucial.
In the beginning of their lives, young puppies need to be exposed various types of animals, people, and different environments. They can become anxious or fearful if they are not exposed to these situations.
Many may develop negative behaviors, like fear or aggression.

Socializing your dog with other dogs, people, and in a variety of environments will also help to reduce anxiety about separation or temper tantrums when you go to work. It’s important to start small, and then progress to larger challenges as you progress.
