Early Scent Introduction
Early Neurological Stimulation
Early Neurological Stimulation
Done at Day 3-16
Daily, brief, exposure to different scents each day.
Benefits of ESI:
1. Helps with nose awareness
2. Builds confidence
3. Enhances the ability to identify and react to scents.
This procedure creates a more aware and alert dog, which in return makes an even better companion, service, and therapy dog.

Starts on Day 18
When puppies are this young, they do not fear sound, so we use this as an opportunity to get a head start on desensitization of loud noises
Benefits of Sound Desensitization:
1. Puppies learn that loud noises do not need to be met with fear
2. Puppies learn trust and thoughtful reactions to loud noises instead of fear as the reaction.
Examples: TV, Carpet cleaner, fire alarm, music
