Ultimate Puppy Care in NYC
Start your puppy off on the right pa(w)th!
The first couple months of a dog’s life play a critical role in determining the sort of dog he or she becomes. Puppies need constant stimulation and care to become comfortable with other dogs, people, and new environments. A typical workday is too long a period to keep a puppy enclosed without any attention. Puppies that don’t get to socialize often, run the risk of becoming shy, skittish, or aggressive later in life.
