ONE LAST THING YOU NEED TO KNOW...
This is an X-ray of a puppy at 2 weeks old - just look to see how far the bones have to grow to just become proper bony joints, let alone become strong articulating joint that have correct feedback into the brain. This is why it is important that we don't over-exercise our puppies, and certainly not have them jump or train them too hard before they are fully developed. Their development stage is different for many breeds as smaller breeds develop a little faster than larger breeds. It would be safe to hold off on rough play until the pup is at least 6 months but they are not truly matured until 24 months. Please be careful at this stage so the dog's joints will last as they age.
