Your dog loves spending time in your home and interacting with your family. However, he will need to socialize outside of his comfort zone in order to get to know the world around him and to calmly deal with any circumstances that present themselves throughout his life.

Luckily, you can help your pet with this by simply letting him tag along with you when you are headed somewhere dog-friendly. Your pet will be able to see new places, and spend time with new people and animals this way. He will also be able to do this while still by your side, something that will help him think of these interactions in a positive light. Try to keep initial outings short and sweet, as these can be stressful for your pet if he isn’t used to them yet. Your local Savannah, GA vet clinic can offer additional advice.
