Question
My 15-week-old Dutch Shepherd puppy is hesitant and nervous around people, is this normal? How much should I push her with socialization?
Answer
I feel like most people have a different definition of socializing than we do. Here's how we socialize our puppies. Article: Socializing Puppies
I would highly recommend the video Raising Your Puppy with Michael Ellis,
it's going to cover all your questions about this as well as give you the right way to introduce her to things that make her worried. We focus all our early training and "socializing" on engagement with us so they
learn to focus on us in spite of the environment. This builds confidence. This video is about 7 hours long and I recommend it to everyone with a pup, especially of the strong working breeds.
