I agree, you can learn so much about them socially by just watching them. It must be so inspiring to watch a mom and her pups, how she teaches them, etc.
I know we've been trained as humans that dogs do not remember what they've done wrong, and not to punish after the face. I would still hold on to that, because we're still speaking a foreign language and there are misunderstandings, no matter how hard we try. Mom speaks their language completely, and there may be a small thing she does, like an odor, a sound, etc. that makes them understand after the fact that we could not duplicate.
