Why do we use Puppy Culture and Avidog?

The first 12 weeks of a puppy's life is a critical developmental period that can dramatically shape who they will become as an adult. As breeders, we have a responsibility to take advantage of this period to make an impact on a puppy's personality more than anyone else ever will.
