Start with your vet
Arrange veterinary care and ask your vet about vaccinations, exercise and when your puppy can safely visit different places. Individual advice matters more than a generic online timetable.
Find suitable local support
Ask trainers how they work, what their classes cover and how they support shy puppies. Check appointment availability with groomers and discuss a gentle introduction.
Keep outings manageable
Choose quieter times and make it easy to leave. Confirm dog access directly with a venue instead of assuming every puppy can comfortably cope with a busy room.
Policies and access can change. Confirm details with the venue before a special journey.
