Here
is Quick Solution for Your Dilemma between a Newborn and a
Grown up Pup
Planning
to have a puppy? If yes, then the eternal question of newborn
or older puppy will certainly haunt you. A newborn puppy with
its cute nose and tender paws is sure to fascinate you, but
it will be way behind in its behavior when compared to a grown
up one.
A newborn pup normally takes at least 8 weeks time to become
more matured or at least to get to understand the surroundings.
However, animal enthusiasts say that only when the pup reaches
an age of 6 months, it can be considered as grown up and you
can train them easily. Though grown up pups seldom engage
in scratching and biting things, few people still prefer newborn
pups to the grown ups for the sheer excitement of seeing a
mischievous puppy.
Whenever
you go for getting a young puppy you should bear in your mind
many things with regard to the behavior of puppies. Puppies,
up to the age of 8 weeks, normally bite on things and keep
scratching your carpet and other areas. Animal enthusiasts
refer such behavior of puppies to its need for a position
in the hierarchy and you can even sometimes see puppies biting
their own mother and getting growled away by the angry mother.
Puppies
when they reach an age of 6 months try to recognize their
surroundings and start respecting their mother and this will
be the right stage for you to adopt the pup. Though training
a 6 months old pup is not easy, you can still start the training
programme so as to make your pup accustomed to the training
in its initial age itself.
Further,
pups only when they reach an age of 6 months, start gaining
control over its bladder and bowel movement and this is the
stage where you can potty train your pup and teach hygiene
habits. As pups, younger than 6 months, may find it difficult
to hold their natural calls, you may end messing up your home
at many places.
Puppies
as they grow old understand you and your home better and they
also start behaving in a matured way and keep calm when required,
however you need to train your puppy at the right stage so
as to expect a better behavior from it. Whenever you go for
puppy purchase, always look for few important behavioral signs
such as aggressiveness or nervousness, as these signs are
indications of neglect on these puppies and you should consider
these factors while deciding your pup buy.
