๐พ More Than Just Cuddles ๐พ
At 3 weeks of age, puppies are becoming more aware of the world around them and beginning to engage more with their environment, making this an important stage in their development.
At this stage, interactions are limited to our family, allowing the puppies to develop in a safe and familiar environment while helping them become comfortable with human contact.
Gentle handling, including patting, holding, cuddling, and positive exposure to human touch, plays an important role during this time. As part of this process, we regularly handle their paws, tails, ears, and bodies, helping them become comfortable with everyday handling from an early age.
These early experiences help puppies learn that human interaction is safe and positive. They help build confidence, encourage positive responses to new situations, and help puppies develop into resilient, adaptable dogs.
While these moments may look like simple cuddle time, they are an important part of raising puppies that are comfortable, confident, and ready to embrace new experiences. โค๏ธ
