Puppies Need Exercise | Uncle Stonnie Goes on a Rant
Today Uncle Stonnie starts out talking about puppy exercise and why he thinks the trends towards restricted puppy exercise and socialization opportunities are harmful and unnatural in terms of proper canine physical and mental development. After a while the cameraman brought to Stonnie's attention that the presentation had devolved into an emotional rant; for that we apologize.
We salvaged as much of this video as we could. We will get to work on a more professional explanation of Stonnie's positions concerning puppy exercise and socialization and its importance in relation to canine development specifically and dog training generally. In the meantime, we hope you guys enjoy watching the puppies play, exercise, and socialize in the snow!
