Ordered a box of great puppy plushies, squeakies, fuzzies, and rope toys to send with future puppies so they will have something that smells like home. This is all a year away from now at least, but my breeder/mentor says it's important to provide puppies with toys that have different textures and shapes from an early age to help with brain development. Let's just say I am getting a head start on one of the (potentially) smartest, most well adjusted, genius Shiba litters out there.
how does it help brain development?
ReplyDeleteNone of those toys would last a year in this house. At least, not intact. =)
