The pup we're considering will be @ 10 weeks when/if we bring him home. Those vital 2 weeks seem like hardly enough time to "see" as much as he can.
In trying to come up with safe ways to meet people, I was considering taking the pup somewhere with a lot of foot traffic - local mall? shopping center? - and happily allowing pets and kibble handing.
I'd love to have puppy parties, but hardly have... say 80? hehe... other people to invite.
Also... how can you socialize a pup who isn't finished with shots to other dogs when you want to avoid places where lots of dogs... are?
Thanks in advance!
