Dog Psychology
Don’t punish your puppies! Discipline them
There is simply no right way of punishing young puppies. You just don’t do it. Punishing your puppy is not a good start to having a loving relationship with them.
First 12 Weeks of a Puppy’s Life
Your puppy’s behaviors during the first three months are called the Developmental Periods. These are the stages starting from birth, which is the Neonatal Period between the first two weeks of his life all the way to the Environmental Awareness period, which is the period lasting between ten to twelve weeks of age.
Your Puppy’s Socialization Period
The socialization period is a crucial stage in your puppy’s growth. This occurs during the third to twelfth weeks of the dog’s age. Your puppy’s first social association is developed during this period.
Preparing your Dog for a New Baby
If your dog is essentially the “only child” in the family, meaning that you do not have any kids, then having a newborn baby come home can be a bit threatening to your pet.
