The era of imprinting is one of the most significant in a dog’s life.
This is the period when the dog’s behavior and personality develop. He is curious, he watches his environment, he learns to adapt. What happens at this age will have an impact on your entire life, both positively and negatively. In a foreign environment, the puppy encounters new situations and we teach him how to react, how to solve the given situations (for example a fearful dog escapes screaming before the others chase him, but as soon as he stops, the others too = learns if he is scared, will not rush, but rather stop and wait patiently for it to be sniffed).
From about 4 months to 7-8 months!
