PUPPY SOCIALIZATION

Starting one (1)
第一部分

week after you get your puppy (age 8 or 9 weeks), get him out one day a week to a new situation he has never before seen. This takes some planning, but is worth the effort.
在你得到幼犬的一周以后（8或9周大），每周抽一天带他去一个新的，他从来没见过的地方。这需要一些计划，但这是值得一做的。

8 weeks: A walk (off leash) in a meadow or pasture with medium tall grass. Keep him with you by voice.
8周大：带他去有着中等高度草的草地或牧场散步，不用牵引绳。只用言语让他跟着你。

Encouage him to climb over a little mound of dirt or log. Praise his efforts to do something he has never done before. Walk just fast enough that he has to strain very slightly to keep up with you. At this age hie desire to stay with you is very keen. Capitalize on that. The walk should take no more than 20 minutes.
鼓励他爬过有些松土的小土墩或是树墩。当他做了些以前从没做过的事之后，表扬他。散步的时候快步走，速度保持在只能让他勉强跟上你。在这个年龄段他强烈的渴望能和你呆在一起。利用这一点。散步时间不应该超过20分钟。

9 weeks: Another walk this time in the woods. He is in taller grass and weeds. He must occasionally climb over small logs (just big enough to be a challenge). He goes up the hill, down the hill, over the rocks, maybe down a small bank. The perfect setup is where he goes across a small creek. He gets wet up to his chest. He may scramble up the bank to follow you. He goes through a thick carpet of leaves that crunch when he walks. Encourage him all the way. Praise him for meeting the challenge.
The walk takes about 20 minutes.
9周大：这一次是另一种散步方式，在树林里。他走在更高的草地和杂草中。他必须偶尔爬过一些小树墩（大小刚刚好成为一个挑战）。他攀上土堆，爬下土堆，越过岩石，或许走过一个小河岸。更完美的计划是让他穿过一条小河。河水（的高度）最多弄湿他的胸部。他可能会慌乱的爬过河岸，为了跟上你。让他走过有着厚厚落叶的道路，当他走过的时候会发出嘎吱嘎吱的声音。自始至终都要无保留的鼓励他。当他遇到挑战的时候要表扬他。
散步大概需要20分钟。

10 weeks: The same as age 9 weeks but a bit more difficult. Occasionally hide momentarily from him when he is distracted in the woods. Watch him. Does he notice you are missing? If he does, and starts to look for you. suddenly appear and praise profusely. If he doesn't look for you, toss a pebble to make him notice you are missing. Then call him from your hiding place.When he starts to look for you, appear and praise him.
This will teach him, as it is repeated time and time again, to watch you when you are out in the woods, instead of you having to constantly be watching where he is. This makes him take responsibility of staying with you. Play this game over and over through many weeks until you can not hide from him because he is always watching. This only works when started young.
10周大：和在第9周的时候一样，但是更有难度。当他在树林里注意力分散的时候，偶尔躲藏起来一会。注视着他。他注意到你不见了吗？如果他注意到了，并且开始四处寻找你，就突然出现在他面前，并给予大量的表扬。如果他没有找你，丢块小石头让他注意到你不见了。然后待在你所躲藏的地方，呼叫他。当他开始找你的时候，出现并且表扬他。
当这个方式被重复许多此以后，这将教导他，当你们外出去树林的时候应该留心你的去向。这样就不需要你经常留意他在哪。这会让他更有责任心的跟在你身边。用几周的时间不断地进行这个游戏，知道你不用藏起来为止，因为他会一直注视着你。这只有当他还小的时候才有用。

11 weeks: Take him swimming. You hold him and wade out to Knee Deep water. Point him toward the shore and gently let him go. Be sure he gets his head up and he heads for shore. Have someone encouraging him in a postive way. Another way to approach this is to entice him into the water by going in yourself and encouraging to follow. Do not throw him in. When you are through get him out and dry him off and go home. Don't let him get chilled.
11周大：带他去游泳。你抱着他淌入及膝的河水。示意他游向岸边，然后轻轻的放开他。一定要保证他的头抬起来并且朝向着岸边。让一个人用积极的方法鼓励他。另一个方法是你自己先走到水里，再吸引他也进到水里，鼓励他跟着你。不要把他丢进水里。当你训练完了以后让他上岸，把他擦干，然后再回家。
注意不要让他受寒。

12 weeks: Take him to the farm. Let him see cows, horses, chickens, and whatever else you can find. This time you can keep him on a leash. Make sure he is safe from the animals and let him get close enough to sniff. This outing can take 20 or more minutes. You have a postive attitude about all this. Be nonchalant about it all, as if this is what every 12 week old pup does.
12周大：带他去农场。让他见见牛，马，鸡，还有任何你能找到的动物。这次最好用牵引绳牵着他。确保他的安全不被动物们伤害，让他接近动物们去闻嗅。这次外出可能需要20分钟或更多。你应对这一切保持着积极的态度。对所发生的一切都要保持冷静，仿佛这就是每一个12周大的小狗所做的事。

13 weeks: Take him on a leash in town. Walk him on a main street with medium to light foot traffic. He sees and hears cars, trucks and heavy street traffic. He passes by many people walking bicycles, delivery men with hand trucks, etc. This should be a short outing about 10 minutes. Praise him lavishly for his postive behaviour.{ Be nonchalant and very encouraging.} When you get back to the car, lay on the praise for his remarkable feats of courage.
13周大：用牵引绳牵着他去市区。带他走在主干道边，当车辆不是很多的时候。他可以看见和听见轿车，卡车和重型运输车辆。他经过人群，自行车，送货员和手推车，等等。这应该是一个短时间的外出，大概10分钟。对于他积极的行为要给予大量的表扬。当你回到车上的时候，对于他表现出来的勇气要给予表扬。

14 weeks: A trip to the beach or some special place he has never been. Prehaps a trip to the local grade school front lawn when all the children are pouring out. Let the kids stop and pat him. Let him see and in the crowd.
14周大：带他去海边或是一个特别的，他从来没去过的地方。或许可以带他去当地的小学前面的草坪，在所有的学生倾泻而出的时候。让孩子们停下来摸摸他。让他看看拥挤的环境。

15 weeks: Another trip to town.
15周大：再一次去市区。

16 weeks: Your pups major learning age of his entire life is now over. Hopefully you have given him a very wide rang of experiences. If you have done all this faithfully you will have taught him the most important thing of all to learn and it will stay with him the rest of his life, enabling him to continue to learn throughout his lifetime.
16周大：对于你的幼犬来说，他这一生主要的学习年龄到这里就结束了。希望你提供给他了一个很广泛的生活体验。如果你能如实地做到了这些，你将教会他所要学的最重要的事，使他终生都能够继续学习，并且这将陪伴他一生。

17weeks to 21 weeks: This is a bad time to subject your pup to stress, such as plane trips, a stay at the vets, boarding kennels or any threatening situation. Many pups act very fearful at this age. This should be a quiet time in their lives.
17到21周：这是个让你的幼犬受到压力的不利时段。例如飞机旅行，住在兽医院，寄养或是任何有威胁的环境。很多幼犬在这段时间都表现的很胆怯。这段时间应该让他们的生活保持平静。
