Uncle Shiner teaching Amy to swim. He even let her help him rescue the duck.
We are very hands on with our puppies. Handling them from day one. We also work with early socialization puppy protocols with each puppy. We incorporate both ESI (Early Scent Introduction) and ENS (Early Neurological Stimulation) daily for the first two and half weeks.
The first two weeks are the most crucial for both ESI & ENS work.
The benefits of introducing ENS exercises are to:
Boost brain development
Improve circulation and immune system
Stimulate the neurological system
Improve stress responses in later life
Encourage a daily check of each puppy
The benefits of introducing INS exercises are to:
Introduce puppies to new scents in a controlled way
Improve scenting ability in later life
Enhance confidence and stability as adults
Reduce behavioral issues in the long term
We also do daily normal play, handling and socialization activities for the entire time the puppies are with us.
In weeks 2-3 we will work on sound sensitivity getting them exposed to many different types of sounds that they will hear in their environment.
In week 4 onward we will continue to introduce them to sights, sounds and scents in their environment as well as introducing them to other humans - adults and children. Some of the activities will include car rides and walks in the neighborhood. We also begin some basic obedience training.
Our hope is to give your new family member the best start we can to acclimating and being comfortable and not fearful in their new environment.
