Early Neurological stimulation

Introduce leash training!

The next step is socialization:

small amounts of outside stimulation are introduced around 4-5 weeks of age. Play with ball, playing on different surfaces outside of their kennel area. Different noises introduced around 3-4 weeks, such as banging, vacuum, clapping any kind of noise that will acclimate them to different situation.

Car rides start- Yes, load them up around 5 weeks of age and drive around a bit to acclimate them to motion. (puppies do not leave the car for safety)

1)Tactical stimulation       (between toes)
2) Head held erect
3) Head pointed down
  Supine position
4) Thermal stimulation

These five exercises are important neurological stimulations. This is started at 3 days and ends when they are 16 days old.

What does this all mean? 

Improved cardio  (heart rate)
Stronger heart beats
Stronger adrenal glands
Higher tolerance to stress
Greater resistance to disease

Work on crate training so the transition to their new homes will be easier for their forever family!
