Blog article about early development in puppies (breeder, barking, best)

[twelvepaw]

By Patricia McConnell, who also reviews Puppy Culture DVD by Jane Killion- discusses the importance of the first 12 weeks of a puppy's life.

From the blog (this really got me):

"2. When Jane Killion sits with a puppy at the end of the first disc and explains why it is so important to teach pups how to tell their humans they want something. (She uses a clicker to teach a pup to sit when it wants something, rather than jumping up or barking.) I got all gooey eyed when she explained how important it is for any social animal to have a way to be heard, to have a voice. That’s why I got into the field myself, to give dogs a voice, and her words melted my heart."

Addendum: To see what a truly responsible breeder looks like, go to Jane Killion's website and click on Why We Made This Film or Watch the Opening. She is giving her pups the very best start in life, and so very true how critical those first 12 weeks are.
Also- well worth watching if you want your daily dose of cuteness and oxytocin
