Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) was formerly known as Bio Sensor. For you history hounds, Bio Sensor was originally developed by the US Military’s canine program to improve the performance of their working dogs. The idea was to gently stress and stimulate the neurological system in young puppies.
After years of research, it was found that neonate puppies are responsive to this kind of stimuli, resulting in improved overall health!
Some of the noted health benefits include:
✨An increased tolerance to stress
✨Improved cardiovascular performance
✨A stronger nervous system
✨Greater resistance to disease processes
✨Reduced emotionality
Did you catch that?!
It has been ⭐SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN⭐ that breeders have the unique ability to improve the overall health of our puppies by performing ENS between the ages of 3-16 days old!
Each exercise is performed for 3-5 seconds each
1. Tactile Stimulation - stimulate the skin of the puppy to 'wake up' their neurological system
2. Head Held Up - we're letting blood drain from the brain. The neurological system will recognize this and tell the heart to pump blood back to the brain to maintain equilibrium
3. Head Held Down - now too much blood is going to the brain, stimulating the neurological system to work in a different way to maintain equilibrium
4. Supine - most puppies will resist this, but again it's challenging the neurological system and telling it to go to work
5. Thermal Stimulation - the puppy is placed on a cold surface to make the neurological system respond to a temperature change to the body.
In tests of learning, puppies who were stimulated using ENS were found to be more active and exploratory than their non-stimulated littermates. Stimulated puppies were also more dominant in competitive situations.
Secondary effects were also noted regarding test performance. In simple problem solving tests using detours in a maze, the non-stimulated pups became extremely aroused, whined a great deal, and made many errors. Their stimulated littermates were less disturbed or upset by test conditions and when comparisons were made, the stimulated littermates were more calm in the test area, made fewer errors and gave only an occasional distress when stressed.
