2019 Twixx & Bear

December 29, 2019
Congratulations to our Twixx & Bear families.. This is a hard litter for me to say goodbye to. It is Twixx's retirement litter, she was spayed and is officially off the clock as of Saturday. She has been an incredibly devoted mother to her babies. She loves to play with them and would still nurse the puppies if I allowed it (due to her spay I couldn't allow it).

I am so incredibly excited for you all!!! Please let me know your puppy's name by Tuesday so that I can finish getting packets together in time. Order food today so that you have it when you get home with your puppy. They eat the Chicken & Sweet potato formula of pawTree You will not find this food at the store and your puppy should eat the same food during the first year of his life while his GI system matures. pawTree's probiotics will help your puppy stay healthy during the stress of the transition. The puppies love all of the toppers too! Puppy Pick Up Is For Essential Adults Only! Please respect that other families are on a tight schedule and want to return to their family as quick as possible during this holiday season. Watch your email for additional details.

Twixx's puppies are getting big! They have developed so much over the past week. They nap less and play and eat more! They are taking daytime naps in their crates and also sleeping in their crates of a night from 9-6am without potties! They are doing a great job. Their favorite toy this week with their Hol-ee Roller ball, the little ones are more their size but they love the medium and large ones too! It is cute watching them carry a huge ball. The puppies got their nails trimmed and received their Parvovirus and Distemper vaccine this week.

Twixx's puppies are just sweet little babies and are all definitely on Santa's nice list. They all have just one request... To join your family!

The puppies are doing a great using their potty station and have started sleeping in crates. They had their nails trimmed and were combed this week. They are lucky little puppies because Violet thinks that they are her babies so she jumps in after Twixx jumps out of their area and she nurses them too! Violet is giving Twixx a well deserved break by playing with the puppies and the puppies are enjoying having her play with them too.

The puppies have mastered their two step slide and are working on the wobble board and tunnel. Sensory landscape helps the puppies build confidence. Climbing, sliding down uneven surfaces, standing on the wobble board and playing in the dark tunnels are all things that help produce mentally and physically stable puppies.

Dreaming of snuggling puppies all day.. I could do that forever. Warm, silky soft, sweetness... these feeling automatically conjure the feelings of love within you.

Twixx's puppies have grown so much that we've had to adjust their collars to allow for their growth every other day! It is amazing how fast they grow and develop from week to week. This is exactly why I do weekly photos. It is so hard to believe if you don't actually see it happen.

Their eyes have just opened but they still do not have full vision and won't even at 8 weeks of age. They can tell by smell if I or someone else has walked into the room. They are moving on their own and actually standing up and taking a few steps.

This week the puppies have continued to be handled daily and received Bio-Senor feedback which helps them build healthy immune systems, improved cardio vascular performance, stronger adrenal glands, more tolerance to stress and greater resistance to disease.

The U.S. Military in their canine program developed a method that still serves as a guide to what works. 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 nor order of preference the handler starts with one put 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:

1. Tactile stimulation - holding the pup in one hand, the handler gently stimulates (tickles) the pup between the toes on any one foot using a Q-tip. It is not necessary to see that the pup is feeling the tickle. Time of stimulation 3 - 5 seconds.

2. Head held erect - using both hands, the pup is held perpendicular to the ground, (straight up), so that its head is directly above its tail. This is an upwards position. Time of stimulation 3 - 5 seconds

3. Head pointed down - holding the pup firmly with both hands the head is reversed and is pointed downward so that it is pointing towards the ground. Time of stimulation 3 - 5 seconds

4. Supine position - hold the pup so that its back is resting in the palm of both hands with its muzzle facing the ceiling. The pup while on its back is allowed to sleep struggle. Time of stimulation 3-5 seconds.

5. Thermal stimulation - use a damp towel that has been cooled in a refrigerator for at least five minutes. Place the pup on the towel, feet down. Do not restrain it from moving. Time of stimulation 3-5 seconds.
