My girl is 15 weeks old and very polite. The vet said that she is on the smaller side and we should wait to get her vaccinated a little bit longer than usual. In a few days she will get her second shots (at 16 weeks). Now that means she hasn't been able to walk outside for now. We do take her out on walks in her bag to get her used to all the different sounds and to show her the outside world.
I am planning on taking her to puppy meetings to socialize once she has all her shots and my question is if she is likely to pick up barking from the other dogs? I've read in other threads that dogs picked up unwanted behaviours. Barking is of course not an issue, but excessively barking would be. She's veeery stubborn and I know already that we would have a hard time teaching her not to bark excessively.
Maybe I should also clarify that she is physically able to bark as she barks when she dreams (too cute
)
Is there anything I should do while socializing her if I notice her picking up "bad behaviours"? How would I instantly correct it? Or do I just let it happen and deal with the problem once it's there?
Thank you for your advice.
