It\u2019s not just about feeding the puppy and ensuring it\u2019s healthy\u2014it\u2019s about exposing it to different situations so it becomes accustomed to the world it will live in.<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"1063\" data-end=\"1586\">\n<li class=\"\" data-start=\"1063\" data-end=\"1193\">\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1065\" data-end=\"1193\"><strong data-start=\"1065\" data-end=\"1087\">Exposure to sounds<\/strong> \u2192 From everyday noises like vacuum cleaners or doorbells to more intense sounds like traffic or storms.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"\" data-start=\"1194\" data-end=\"1300\">\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1196\" data-end=\"1300\"><strong data-start=\"1196\" data-end=\"1231\">Contact with different surfaces<\/strong> \u2192 So the puppy gets used to walking on grass, tiles, carpets, etc.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"\" data-start=\"1301\" data-end=\"1420\">\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1303\" data-end=\"1420\"><strong data-start=\"1303\" data-end=\"1345\">Interaction with humans and other dogs<\/strong> \u2192 A puppy that has only been isolated may develop fears or insecurities.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li class=\"\" data-start=\"1421\" data-end=\"1586\">\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1423\" data-end=\"1586\"><strong data-start=\"1423\" data-end=\"1474\">First experiences with play and basic obedience<\/strong> \u2192 It\u2019s not about training them like adults, but helping them associate human contact with positive experiences.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1588\" data-end=\"1802\">This is where many breeders fail. Some simply leave the puppies in a pen and do nothing else. Later, when the puppy goes to its new home, the owner ends up with a fearful, insecure, or behaviorally problematic dog.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1804\" data-end=\"1944\">We see it every day. At our kennel, we work with the puppies daily because we know that these early weeks define their lifelong temperament.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"\" data-start=\"1946\" data-end=\"1949\" \/>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1951\" data-end=\"1991\"><strong data-start=\"1951\" data-end=\"1991\">The Owner\u2019s Role: From 3 to 6 Months<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"1993\" data-end=\"2189\">This is where the new owner comes in. The family adopting the puppy must continue the socialization process.

Genetics play a key role in a dog\u2019s temperament.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"2881\" data-end=\"3097\">Most people don\u2019t realize that a puppy can inherit psychological traits from its parents and grandparents. We\u2019re not just talking about physical features, but also behaviors, insecurities, and even inherited traumas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3099\" data-end=\"3278\"><strong data-start=\"3099\" data-end=\"3116\">Real example:<\/strong><br data-start=\"3116\" data-end=\"3119\" \/>If a puppy is born from extremely nervous or insecure parents, no matter how much socialization you do, it will always have a predisposition toward insecurity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3280\" data-end=\"3434\">That\u2019s why not just any puppy will do. It\u2019s not only about looks or size. Temperament is deeply tied to genetic lineage\u2014and very few people consider this.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"\" data-start=\"3436\" data-end=\"3439\" \/>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3441\" data-end=\"3477\"><strong data-start=\"3441\" data-end=\"3477\">The Impact of Poor Socialization<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3479\" data-end=\"3538\">To truly understand why this is so important, imagine this:<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3540\" data-end=\"3701\">A Cane Corso puppy is attacked by a Malinois at two months old. That\u2019s not just a minor scare. The puppy\u2019s brain will associate that experience with real danger.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3703\" data-end=\"3820\"><strong data-start=\"3703\" data-end=\"3718\">The result:<\/strong> when that puppy grows up, every time it sees a Malinois, its instinct will be to go on the defensive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"3822\" data-end=\"4026\">The same applies to other fears. A puppy that hasn\u2019t been exposed to loud noises may develop a phobia of storms. One that hasn\u2019t had contact with strangers might grow into a distrustful and difficult dog.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4028\" data-end=\"4096\">And all of this could have been prevented with proper socialization.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"\" data-start=\"4098\" data-end=\"4101\" \/>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4103\" data-end=\"4148\"><strong data-start=\"4103\" data-end=\"4148\">Conclusion: It\u2019s Not Just About Affection<\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4150\" data-end=\"4253\">If you believe that a well-socialized puppy is just one that\u2019s been loved, you\u2019re making a big mistake.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\" data-start=\"4255\" data-end=\"4498\">\u2714\ufe0f Socialization is a process.<br data-start=\"4285\" data-end=\"4288\" \/>\u2714\ufe0f It starts with the breeder, but the owner must continue the work.<br data-start=\"4356\" data-end=\"4359\" \/>\u2714\ufe0f Genetics play a key role in a dog\u2019s temperament.<br data-start=\"4410\" data-end=\"4413\" \/>\u2714\ufe0f A poorly socialized puppy can develop fears and insecurities that last a lifetime.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p data-start=\"3456\" data-end=\"3494\">\n<h1 data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"72\"><a style=\"font-size: 16px;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/precio-perros-cane-corso-cachorros-en-venta-comprar.php\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-22495 size-full\" title=\"los mejores criadores de perros de barcelona\" src=\"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208.png\" alt=\"los mejores criadores de perros de barcelona\" width=\"1200\" height=\"208\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208-200x35.png 200w, https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208-300x52.png 300w, https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208-400x69.png 400w, https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208-500x87.png 500w, https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208-600x104.png 600w, https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208-700x121.png 700w, https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208-768x133.png 768w, https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208-800x139.png 800w, https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208-1024x177.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/precio-cachorros-cane-corso-perros-3-1200x208.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/h1>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":29255,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[115],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-30453","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cane-corso-breed"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30453","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30453"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30453\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":30466,"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30453\/revisions\/30466"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29255"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30453"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30453"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.canecorsobarcelona.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30453"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
