My puppies are raised in my home. They are in a puppy pen next to my bed for the first 3-4 weeks, then moved into the living room. They are exposed to daily home life and I make active efforts to expose them to a plethora of sights, sounds, smells, and experiences before they leave here. My goal is to produce adaptable, confident, sweet puppies. I use some, but not all, Puppy Culture socialization methods. They also go to work with me frequently, so they are very acclimated to car rides and veterinary hospitals (of course top precautions are taken to ensure minimal disease risk).
