E.N.S.

Early Neural Stimulation (ENS) is a technique that was developed by the U.S. Military for their canine program in an effort to improve the performance of dogs used for military purposes.  This program came to be known to the public as the "Super Dog" program.  The military learned that performing Early Neurological Stimulation exercises with puppies could have important and lasting effects.  The research showed that dogs exposed to specific Early Neurological Stimulation exercises were able to handle stress better and were actually more resistant to certain forms of cancer and infectious diseases.  Breeders also find that these pups are less prone to an over-reaction to stimuli, tend to be much more social, and adapt to change more easily.  To learn more about the Early Neural Stimulation program CLICK HERE or HERE.

In addition to the normal daily handling and care we give our puppies, we also follow the guidelines set forth for this technique of Early Neural Stimulation.  This is another great way we seek to give your puppy the best start possible! 

Effects of Early Neurological Stimulation are:

1. Improved cardiovascular performance  (including better heart rate)
2. Stronger heart beats
3. Stronger adrenal glands
4. More tolerance to stress
5. Greater resistance to disease

ENS is essentially the repeated flipping of a series of neurological switches which would otherwise lie dormant in the pup until much later.
