This is the message put out by a local rescue.
I’m sorry but if this is the best advice you have you are failing those you adopt dogs out to.

Basically this is simply saying “now is the time” to freak out because you have done nothing else to prepare your dog for LIFE.

Same old song and dance every year.

Training your dog to be actually obedient in real life situations goes a long way.

But what do I know 🤷‍♂️

THIS IS IMPORTANT! The five second rule. Put the back of your hand on the pavement. If you cannot hold it for five seconds, it is TOO HOT to walk for your dogs.

This is a good illustration of puppy socialization needs, shared from Good as Gold Training, but I would also add that all of the listed exposure and experience needs to feel *safe* for the puppy. If s/he is nervous, tentative, or fearful the fear should be handled by backing off a little and reintroducing very slowly and with lots of praise, food and patience. Sometimes, for the sake of "socialization", owners push their puppies too far and too fast, and it can backfire. Good socialization requires that we "read" our puppies and help them feel safe as they navigate the sounds, textures, people and animals in their new world.

A good reason to keep your pups nails trimmed. Don’t forget you can come in between visits for a nail trim.

Food for thought if you are considering donating to animal related non profits.

To whom much is given, much is expected. And collectively, the ASPCA and Humane Society of the United States raise over $400 million a year in the name of helping animals. Using the latest tax filings and other sources, here’s…
