About Socialization & Vaccination Timelines:
The American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior believes that receiving proper socialization before they are fully vaccinated is the gold standard of care for young puppies. For more information please read their official socialization position statement.
If your dog struggles with extreme distraction, barking, excitement or anxiety around other dogs or people, please sign up for a Behavior Consultation to address the issue and get a recommendation to the appropriate program for your dog.
