Understanding the Second Sensitive Period in Dogs

Understanding the Second Sensitive Period in Dogs

As dogs develop, there are certain times when they are more sensitive to social and environmental influences. Many vet professionals are aware of the early sensitive period for puppies, but some are less aware of the significance of later developmental stages. Dr Bronwen will discuss when this occurs, why it is significant, what can go wrong, and how we can help young dogs develop into more comfortable and confident adult dogs.
