Hey East Bay puppy parents - ready to set your pup up for success? Jess, with decades of experience, walks you through three essential socialization steps to keep your puppy confident around visitors, stroller passes, and noisy streets. 1) Visitors: Practice calm greetings at home with low-key treats and gradual increases in people. 2) Strollers: Pair distance and tasty rewards while slowly decreasing space as your pup stays relaxed. 3) Noisy streets: Start with short, controlled exposures and reward calm behavior. These are science-based, safe steps you can do today! Want a plan tailored to your puppy’s temperament? I offer virtual follow-ups or a single in-home visit in Berkeley, Piedmont, and Oakland to personalize the steps.
