This segment addresses the much-anticipated and debated timing of bringing a puppy home, a key concern for new owners.
Finally, the question that's on every new dog owner's mind, when is it safe to bring the puppy home? German Shepherd puppies, like any other breed, shouldn't leave their mothers before 8 weeks of age. This time is crucial for them to learn vital socialization skills from their mother and siblings. Responsible breeders often wait until closer to 12 weeks before allowing the puppies to go to their new homes. This extended time ensures the puppies are well-socialized and have received their necessary vaccinations.
