Did you know that from four to 12 weeks old, puppies go through a ‘socialisation period’? This is the time when a puppy's brain learns new things and it plays a big part in their development 🧠
A puppy's brain develops fast, so it’s crucial they learn about everyday experiences during their first months of life. During this time, puppies learn how to adapt, cope with and enjoy normal, everyday events. Sadly, dogs that haven’t been socialised at a young age tend to be more anxious and unsure about how to react, resulting in behaviour problems, fears and phobias 😢
