How do you socialize a puppy properly?
Socialization is not exposing a puppy to everything at once. It means introducing people, animals, sounds, surfaces and environments gradually, safely and positively, especially in the early months.

What to know
Experiences should allow the puppy to observe and approach at its own pace, using rewards and avoiding forced interaction when fearful. Socialization can begin before all vaccinations are complete when disease risk is carefully controlled.
