Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 Socialization is the process of exposing your puppy to a variety of things he may encounter as an adult dog, from young, bouncy children to someone in a wheelchair. This helps him grow up to be friendly and confident.

#2 It is important to expose your puppy to different people and situations, as this will help him learn that people are not always harmful. Young pups should be exposed to positive interactions with people and new environments several times a week.

#3 Puppies need to meet and interact with various different types of dogs to learn the rules of polite canine encounters. They should also meet different dogs of all sizes, shapes, and colors, so that they can learn how to play well with others.

#4 Positive reinforcement is when you reward your dog when they do something you want them to do. It is important to remember that positive reinforcement is what makes your dog more likely to repeat a behavior.
