Puppy Culture and ENS

Puppy Culture and ENS

Puppy culture is a dog breeder and raiser program designed to be implemented from the Prenatal through to a puppy’s first 12 weeks of life. The program focuses on nurturing a puppy’s natural developmental stages to their best advantage by carefully introducing certain stimuli at certain times to encourage a puppy’s natural curiosity and to minimize the likelihood of them developing behavioral issues later in life. We handle prenatal through till the pups are 8 weeks of age so they spend as much of the critical bonding window with their new families, sending them to their new homes with everything they need to continue the program of socialization and learning at their new homes.

Our Puppy culture also utilizes ENS (Early Neurological stimulation) which research shows helps puppies grow into healthy well-adjusted adults. Benefits of ENS includes[1]:

  1. Greater tolerance to Stress
  2. Greater resistance to disease
  3. Faster adrenal systems
  4. Stronger heart rate
  5. Stronger heart beats.

The result:

Puppies who are less fearful of new situations, less likely to turn to destructive behaviors and who are predisposed towards a constructive learning relationship with their new families. These puppies have learnt to share resources, to sit politely for attention (rather then jump up) and to interact calmly in a wide variety of environments and situations.

Puppy culture was developed by the following canine experts:

  • June and Irv Krukenkamp MD- TNG Dalmatians and Bull Terriers
  • Dr. Meghan Herron DVM, DACVB- Director, Veterinary behavioral Medicine Clinic, Ohio State University.
  • Dr. Noemie Bernier DVM, DACVIM- Neurologist, Garden State Veterinary Specialists
  • Dr. Carmen Battaglia-Author of Breeding Better Dogs.
  • Dr. Terri Bright BCBA-D. -Director, Behavior Development of MSPCA/Angell
  • Jean Donaldson- Author of Mine! A practical guide to resource guarding in dogs.

  • Dr. Kenneth Leal DVM- Blairstown Animal Hospital
  • Diane Zdrodowski- Evanlake Cavaliers and Therapy dogs
