However, there is joy in this journey as the developmental puppy time from 8 weeks to 4 1/2 months is critical. This time is essential for the following reasons:
- It is THE KEY bonding time forming human relationships,
- It is THE KEY foundation for solid obedience (taught in the form of puppy games),
- It is THE KEY to your puppy learning pack manners (which it learns while running with other adult, well trained dogs who educate/discipline your puppy on the rules of life)
- It is THE KEY to eventually having a dog you enjoy living with in your life and your home.
Close your eyes as the this first developmental stage of a puppies life flies by faster than a speeding bullet. Enjoy this time, laugh a lot, relax, breathe and know that the investment you make NOW will pay off in HUGE dividends when your puppy hits the infamous next developmental stage of 6+ months - the teenage years. I'm here with you every step of the way so you, and your puppy, succeed.
So, ready or not, it's Puppytime!
