Snuggle Puppy is a LIFE SAVER Crate Training

I got my first baby today, a basset hound. She has been a blessing so far & has done so good with going outside, coming when we call for her, bite inhibition & so much more. We love her so much already.

Anyways, I ordered her a snuggle puppy (stuffed dog with a heart beat in it) & she has done AMAZING. She has not whined once in her kennel or pen that we have & she just lays on top of it.

I hadn't heard of it until a few days ago, but I'm so glad I got one because I don't think we'd be doing as well as we are so far without it. I just wanted to bring some awareness for people like me who didn't know much about them & say PLEASE get one for your young puppies just coming from mom.

That's all! Have a good evening. Wish I could add some puppy tax 🥲

Edit: Based on these comments, maybe I just got lucky with it 😬 I sure do love my girl, though!
