RACE-Approved 0.5 Hour CE Course
Course Overview
In veterinary practice, we see a lot of puppies. They come from various places and all arrive in families who are excited about their new bundle of fur! Our goal as the veterinary team is to monitor and encourage socialization to create adult dogs who have been prepared for their life in this new family. This 0.5 hour lecture reviews normal puppy behavior during the socialization period, what you should be watching for to know if this puppy is staying on track for normal behavioral development and the signs that a puppy has the potential for behavior problems.
