While playing socialization bingo be sure to pay attention to how your dog is feeling around these new things!

​

Exposure to new things is really important, especially during the first 12 weeks of life. But exposure that leaves your puppy feeling scared or uncomfortable can cause more harm than good.

​

Aim for all new experiences to be positive experiences! If your puppy is having a hard time, it's much better to leave and try again later than to wait it out and hope your puppy starts to get more comfortable.
