A puppy isolated early in life from other dogs and humans can end up fearful, shy, or aggressive e.g., fear-biters in adulthood.
As a rule of thumb, your puppy needs to meet at least one

Research shows that 44% of dogs that do not get adequate socialization go on to to show aggressive and reactive behavior as adult dogs.
