OUR SOCIALIZATION PROGRAM INCLUDES

 
     
     
    Bio-Sensor "Super Puppy" Program from day 3 - 16 (see below for explanation)  
     
    Desensitization to fear provoking sounds by listening to our "Puppy Racket" recording  
     
 
 

To a puppy, each new noise experience can be frightening.  With our "Puppy Racket" recording, we help desensitize each puppy to strange sounds and prepare them to face the noisy world without fear.  The recording contains dozens of assorted, high fidelity noises such as:  thunder, wind storm, alarm clock, vacuum cleaner, lawnmower, power saw, buzzers, bells, children playing, dogs barking and howling, thumps, bumps, and dozens more to help your new puppy transition to their new home a little bit easier.

   
 
 

Quality playtime with adults, children, other dogs and cats both inside and outside in safe, monitored play yards.

 
     
 
 
 
 
     
 

BIO-SENSOR SUPER DOG PROGRAM

 
     
 

Below is a description of our Early Neurological Stimulation program that we perform with each puppy from days 3 - 16.  We have seen a dramatic improvement in sociability, ease of training and overall general health in our puppies.  Below is an excerpt from an article taken from a dog breeding seminar given by noted breeder, author, lecturer and researcher, Dr. Carmen Battaglia.

In an effort to improve the performance of dogs used for military purposes, a program called "Bio Sensor" was developed. Later, it became known to the public as the "Super Dog" Program. Based on years of research, the military learned that early neurological stimulation exercises could have important and lasting effects. Their studies confirmed that there are specific time periods early in life when neurological stimulation has optimum results. The first period involves a window of time that begins at the third day of life and lasts until the sixteenth day. It is believed that because this interval of time is a period of rapid neurological growth and development, and therefore is of great importance to the individual.

The "Bio Sensor" program was also concerned with early neurological stimulation in order to give the dog a superior advantage. Its development utilized six exercises which were designed to stimulate the neurological system. Each workout involved handling puppies once each day. The workouts required handling them one at a time while performing a series of five exercises. Listed in order of preference, the handler starts with one pup and stimulates it using each of the five exercises. The handler completes the series from beginning to end before starting with the next pup.

The handling of each pup once per day involves the following exercises:

 
     
 

 
       
 

Head Held Erect

Head Pointed Down

 
       
 

 
       
 

Tactical Stimulation

Supine Position

 
       
 

 
       
 

Thermal Stimulation

Lots Of Love!

 
       
 

These five exercises will produce neurological stimulations, none of which naturally occur during this early period of life. Experience shows that sometimes pups will resist these exercises, others will appear unconcerned. In either case a caution is offered to those who plan to use them.

Do not repeat them more than once per day and do not extend the time beyond that recommended for each exercise. Over stimulation of the neurological system can have adverse and detrimental results. These exercises impact the neurological system by kicking it into action earlier than would be normally expected, the result being an increased capacity that later will help to make the difference in its performance. Those who play with their pups and routinely handle them should continue to do so because the neurological exercises are not substitutions for routine handling, play socialization or bonding.

Benefits of Stimulation

Five benefits have been observed in canines that were exposed to the Bio Sensor stimulation exercises.

The benefits noted were:

  1. Improved cardio vascular performance (heart rate)

  2. Stronger heart beats

  3. Stronger adrenal glands

  4. More tolerance to stress

  5. Greater resistance to disease.

In tests of learning, stimulated pups were found to be more active and were more exploratory than their non- stimulated littermates over which they were dominant in competitive situations.

Secondary effects were also noted regarding test performance. In simple problem solving tests using detours in a maze, the non-stimulated pups became extremely aroused, whined a great deal, and made many errors. Their stimulated littermates were less disturbed or upset by test conditions and when comparisons were made, the stimulated littermates were more calm in the test environment, made fewer errors and gave only an occasional distress sound when stressed.
