So what is ENS and what does it do for the puppy ?
ENS
ENS, or Early Neurological Stimulation, encompasses the introduction of neurological experiences during the initial phases of a puppy’s life. The origins of the ENS training regimen can be traced back to a military-developed initiative known as the “bio-sensor” program. Dr. Carmen Battaglia played a pivotal role in both researching and promoting this concept, which eventually gained fame as the “Super Puppy Program.” Notably, puppies come into the world in a condition of utter vulnerability. Classified as an “altricial” species, they lack faculties like vision, hearing, and the capacity to regulate their body temperature. Their mobility is limited to a brief crawl, often aimed at seeking warmth in the proximity of their mother. This phase of dependence persists until the puppy reaches approximately two weeks of age. In stark contrast, “precocial” species are equipped with sensory capabilities from birth, along with the ability to maintain body temperature and even engage in rudimentary locomotion shortly after being born. The equine family stands as a prime example of a precocial species.
The benefits of ENS last a lifetime, not just the early years.
– Stronger Heart Beats
– Improved Cardiovascular Function & Performance
– Improved Stress Tolerance
– Increases Resistance to Disease
ESI
Early Scent Introduction (ESI) isn’t just a training routine – it’s an immersive journey that unlocks the astonishing potential hidden within your puppy’s sense of smell.
This meticulously curated expedition amplifies their innate ability to detect and respond to specific scents, laying down the foundation for a lifetime of unparalleled skills and profound bonds.
ESI involves acquainting your pup with a range of potent scents, each introduced briefly. Every day ushers in a new aroma, while we keenly observe and document your pup’s responses. Positive reactions arise when your furry friend displays curiosity and gravitates towards the scent. Conversely, any attempts to shy away from the scent are noted as negative reactions. Neutral responses indicate a more tempered reaction, suggesting a milder interest.

What's the process for selecting a puppy from a litter?
When it's time to choose a puppy from a litter, we'll provide guidance based on your preferences and the puppies' personalities.
Are your puppies registered?
Our Labrador Retriever's are all American Kennel Club registered and when puppies are born we do register the litter. However with the sale of the puppy will be with limited AKC puppy papers and pedigree. As for our Labradoodles they are not recognized through AKC so only the Poodle sires are registered and there will be no paper registration available through American Kennel Club for the Labradoodle puppies.
