  All puppies in general need a lot of attention and time from you. They need to be cared for and loved. They want you to spend time with them, be their best friend and their best teacher. But in the few weeks after puppies are born, puppies are happy and comfortable being with their mom and siblings – playing and sleeping with one another. When time comes that a puppy gets sold and is brought to his new home, he loses his sense of security. And this is where a snuggle puppy becomes useful. It is puppy toys that will help your pet settle in your home. All puppies in general need a lot of attention and time from you. They need to be cared for and loved. They want you to spend time with them, be their best friend and their best teacher. But in the few weeks after puppies are born, puppies are happy and comfortable being with their mom and siblings – playing and sleeping with one another. When time comes that a puppy gets sold and is brought to his new home, he loses his sense of security. And this is where a snuggle puppy becomes useful. It is a puppy toy that will help your pet settle in your home.

With a puppy toy such as a snuggle puppy, your new pet will not get worried about sleeping alone and no familiar bodies surrounding him in his early weeks of birth. It is difficult for a puppy to settle easily in a strange home, because it is a new surrounding and he is not familiar with it. To alleviate this problem and prevent your puppy from crying at night, introduce a snuggle puppy to him.

This puppy toy imitates the warmth and beating heart provided for by his siblings and mom. In the previous days, an alarm clock was used to mimic the ticking of the mom’s heart; and a bottle with hot water to offer warmth. This practice is taken one step further, wrapping up the “warmth” and the “heart” in one virtual toy. This has been recommended by veterinarians, other dog owners, and breeders to people who have just purchased their puppies and trying so hard to make them settled, especially at night.

The snuggle puppy is battery operated, giving a realistic heartbeat. For the warmth, you may get a terrycloth pouch which is to be filled with dry ice and then heated, although its warmth may last only about 3 hours. If you want the warmth to last longer, say up to 20 hours, you can opt for 2 heating packs. These are non-toxic packs and are disposable. There is also a baby bottle feature, to simulate the nursing when the puppy was still with his mom. You put a pet baby bottle inside the bottle pocket which comes with the toy; this will be held in place by a Velcro tab, but the nipple will be sticking out. If you got your puppy at a very young age, this bottle feature will be of great help

Other than helping your new puppy to settle, the puppy toy can also help dogs and puppies with anxiety issues. This will give them peace and comfort very easily. And when you need to ship an orphaned or an injured puppy, the toy is ideal companion. The toy is not only intended for puppies and dogs, but you can also give them to other pets. It is a good idea to get your pet a toy, if what you want is for you and your pet to sleep soundly. This toy for a puppy is safe and does not easily pull apart, so there will be no worries about choking hazards or anything.
