Abstract
Early training is vital for the well-rounded behaviour and socialisation of young animals including both puppies and kittens; this article considers recent research on the impact of the fear periods, neutering, training and the consequences of inattention to behaviours escalating the ladder of aggression. Having a well-rounded knowledge of these theories can help veterinary staff to appropriately advise breeders on how to provide a nurturing environment for young animals before they go to their first homes, as well as suggestions and tools to combat or reduce emerging troubling behaviours as they are exhibited.
