your puppy to different kinds of stimulation such as things to
see and investigate, things to walk on, things to smells,
things to listen to. Lots of handling exercises to prepare for
vet visits and grooming appointments. Basic introduction to
sit, follow-me, come, down, focus on owner, and leave-it. Lets
not forget some playtime!
