The first few months of a puppy's life are the most important developmental period they will ever experience. Between 0 to 12 weeks of age, puppies are in their critical socialization window, a time when new experiences shape how they will perceive and interact with the world as adults.
While protecting puppies from disease is important, behavioral experts widely agree that missing critical socialization opportunities during this period can have lifelong consequences, often creating greater challenges than the illnesses owners are trying to avoid.
