 The puppies will be born beside my bed and then moved into the kitchen where they quickly get use to all the household noises, that you would expect in a busy country farm house. When they are around 5 weeks old they start to get introduced to our purpose built enrichment room where they experience different sights ,sounds , textures and levels and enjoy the freedom this offers them to explore as a litter . They also have enrichment areas outside on grass and gravel . From there we start to introduce early litter training ,early crate training ,early introduction to the car and then new people and dogs . This will give them the freedom to explore and play with plenty of space. Our Early Development Puppy Play area was created to support early stimulation and cognitive development in young puppies. Studies regarding early neurological stimulation in puppies have confirmed that one of the critical periods for canines to be stimulated is between 4 and 16 weeks of age. Research has shown that non-stimulated pups may become fearful of unfamiliar objects and will withdraw rather than investigate. Even well bred puppies with superior pedigree could grow up preferring the safe environment of their kennels/crates rather than the stimulating world outside, and may also be more difficult to train. We believe our Puppy Play Areas ,coupled with interesting puppy toys, introduces puppies to different textures, sounds, and stimulates their developing nervous systems. We understand the importance of raising stable, well adjusted and confident puppies. Exposing them to many different sounds and textures during their early weeks will give them a great head start. 
The puppies will be being weaned onto a dry Kibble which is Fish4dogs. Before leaving us at 8 weeks your puppy will have been given the best start in life and will be well socialised. He/she will have been on a very strict worming programme and treated with front line at 6 weeks to prevent fleas. The puppies will be microchipped at 6 weeks and vet checked as close to 8 weeks as possible. Please feel free to contact with any other questions I haven’t already answered in my add . I am advertising this litter early to give families time To get to know me over the phone , in txt and when you view the puppies . I want to be able to keep in touch regularly over the next few weeks with everyone sending you updated photos and progress reports rather then advertise when they are ready and only have limited conversation
