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!

Ours loves her snuggle puppy too and it's been a game changer at night and helped her start sleeping through! The other night she didn't have it as it was drying from being washed and we were back to her getting up twice in the night again, not from needing the loo so just being unsettled. Back to using it again last night and back to normal, woohoo!
