...Puppy Socialization...
 



At Chenoa ... socialization begins in the whelping box!






Our Puppy Socialization Philosophy is based on the theory that if we put forth the effort to do our very best in socializing, we can ensure life-long homes for our special puppies.  We want our puppies to not only be healthy and happy - but also confident, well-rounded individuals that truly represent the hardy Breed that they.  Some of the key points to our philosophy include:
 
  • Early Neurologic Stimulation
  • Daily handling, love & attention through all stages
  • Puppy Enrichment with toys, textures, sounds & more
  • Quality time with people of all ages
  • Play & training on various surfaces & environments
  • Friendly interactions with dogs and other animals
  • Introduction to grooming tools, bathing & nail trimming
  • Initial car rides & Veterinary visits
  • Litter box & crate training
  • Learning how to be good little citizens!
Living in a secluded area shelters our puppies from hearing "city noise" so we create a little of our own by playing CD's full of sounds such as fireworks, garbage trucks, honking horns and even screaming babies!

Living by the National Park has many perks such as being able to take the puppies to the river and introducing them to campers eager to love on a soft ball of fluff.

Coming from a large family we have an ample supply of welcoming arms from those ready to help socialize our puppies.

Grandchildren make great puppy trainers!
