What is ENS (Early Neurological Stimulation)? And why do we use this very early form of training here at Pups of the low country.
First and foremost we absolutely love these babies and are dedicated to giving them the most amazing start to a long healthy life and second it’s pretty cool…
“The US Military developed this method designed to improve the performance of future military working dogs
When performed correctly, ENS is believed to impact the neurological system by kicking it into action earlier than would be normally expected, the result being an increased capacity that later will help to make the difference in its performance, according to Breeding Better Dogs. ENS is time sensitive and must be performed from the third to the 16th days of a puppy’s life.
Five benefits have been observed in canines that were exposed to ENS, including improved cardio vascular performance (heart rate); stronger heart beats; stronger adrenal glands; more tolerance to stress; and greater resistance to disease.
In tests of learning, ENS stimulated pups were more active and exploratory than their non- stimulated littermates, according to Breeding Better Dogs.”
