Socialization is an important part of puppy training. It is a way to introduce your puppy to his environment and teach him how to deal with it appropriately—to co-exist comfortably with people, other pets, animals, buildings, sights, strange scents, sounds, cars and many other factors that make up his environment.

Domestication demands that dogs should learn to adjust and conform to their environment. Every day, your puppy will come across something new in his environment. Socialization should start as early in life as possible. Puppies that have been socialized early have been shown to be able to adapt easily and become comfortable with everything and everyone around him.

Socialization should start as early as possible. If you wait until your puppy is older, there may be negative consequences. You may observe your puppy easily frightened at the slightest sound, or reacting negatively when meeting new people or pets.

Asking assistance from your Indianapolis veterinary clinic will also go a long way in addressing any behavior problem.
