Introducing the “Senses Method to Socialization Program,” designed for puppy parents, whether you are new to the experience or a seasoned caretaker. This course stands apart by moving away from the conventional one-size-fits-all approach to socialization. Instead, it equips you with the tools to tailor socialization to your unique puppy, guided by core concepts.
- The primary aim is to help you feel confident and at ease making informed decisions tailored to your puppy’s individual needs. Throughout the course, you’ll learn to identify your puppy’s strengths and areas where additional support may be beneficial.
- Key concepts include
- The importance of optimism in socialization versus a “full-on” exposure to everything approach
- Adapting your socialization plan to your puppy’s temperament and developmental stage for that week
- Deciphering your puppy’s body language
- Understanding how puppies learn, and
- Ensuring socialization sessions are both enjoyable and educational.
- The importance of timely, well-executed socialization outings and exposure to novelty
- The importance of schedules, integration, and rest in learning and appropriate socialization.
- You will learn to recognize signs of fear or apprehension in your puppy and manage these situations effectively to support their well-being and confidence.
- You’ll also learn how to socialize puppies who aren’t fully vaccinated while keeping them safe.
- The course also builds your observational skills and critical thinking as you support your puppy’s learning, safety, and overall socialization journey.
Remember, you do not have to figure out and endure the difficulties of a new young puppy alone! You have the most input into your adult dog’s temperament by raising it from puppyhood, so don’t deprive yourself of the fun of raising a young puppy by navigating the intricacies of their development and well-being on your own.
The Format of this Twelve-week Deep Dive Course is as Follows;
We meet once a week for a live Zoom session. Each session offers an opportunity to learn essential concepts and skills you can implement with your pup that week. These sessions are recorded.
In addition, we hold weekly live office hour sessions where you can ask ANY questions, either about the course or outside the course material, related to your puppy and the challenges you are experiencing that week. For example, you might be having challenges with your puppy and your adult dog, house training, crate training, your children interacting with your puppy, or your puppy and your resident cat.
When you enroll in this course, you will also join a community of other puppy-parents who can sympathize with your situation and offer support. When we struggle or feel overwhelmed, it is critical to remember we are not alone and that our experience, while personal, is probably similar to what others have experienced and succeeded in.
