Litter Activities

Litter Activities

We introduce our puppies to a variety of activities. They get exposure to a wobble balance board, toddler slide, a pool full of crackling water bottles, a soft sided carrier (airline approved) and a wire crate (starting at 5wks), weekly nail trims, brush and baths starting at 3wks of age, click & treat (shaping), flirt pole, tug rag, and children playing with them daily.

Puppies are introduced to different kinds of sounds: CD playing daily (ie: fireworks, baby crying, dogs barking, car horn, etc.) Loud noises such as pans dropping, kids screaming, chainsaw, BB gun popping. Sometimes thunder and lightening if we have a storm or the sound can be heard on the CD.

It is our goal to introduce our puppies to a variety of things to build confidence. As we turn our pups over to their new owners, we cannot stress enough how important it is to continue exposing the puppy to new things. The more of the world they see at a young age the more confident they will be as adults. New owners will need to continue exposing the puppy to new places, people, and sounds while balancing their vaccination schedule and not take them to places other dogs frequent until their puppy series is complete.
