🐶 Build Your Dog's Confidence
If you brought home a new puppy, you hear about socialization
When you bring home a new older dog, they talk about exposure to their new world
Even with the best intentions, I see dog guardians make these MISTAKES:
1- Too much too soon can overwhelm your dog.
2- Don't understand when your dog is overstimulated.
3- Not give your dog time to decompress
INSTEAD, TRY THESE TIPS:
1- Quiet time: Let your dog observe their surroundings without overwhelming them.
2- Short sessions: Keep interactions brief and positive.
3- Listen to your dog: If they seem stressed, take a break.
Help them feel SAFE so they know they can TRUST you--the type of guardian you intend to be when you brought them home.
