Mold your puppy and his behavior into what is acceptable to you don't wait until your puppy turns into a delinquent DOGZILLA

Under-socialized puppies grow up to be fearful or aggressive adults. At this age, socialization is crucial for a confident well-rounded temperament. Creating proper habits and getting off to a good start with your puppy is very important to make sure he/she doesn't develop problems later on. Training your puppy may seem like a lot of work, but it is one of the best things you can do - for both of you. An obedient, well-behaved dog is a good canine citizen and a welcome companion and family member, as well as a positive reflection of you as a responsible pet owner. Early training (the earlier, the better) is a great way to ensure a long, happy relationship with your pet. Don't wait until you have a grown dog with bad habits!! Don't wait until your dog develops into a delinquent.
