Congratulations on your new companion! Now is the time when you take your cute puppy everywhere and have it meet as many new sights, sounds, people, and situations as possible. Remember! A well-socialized puppy is more likely to grow up into a well-rounded adult dog. Take along an assortment of yummy treats, and have your puppy enjoy these treats in lots of different surroundings from as many different people as you can find to pet your puppy!
