Puppies out of Mein Staffi Effi Briest and Mein Staffi Pearl Harbor have been submitted to an early stimulation program, followed later from an early socialization's program for improving their capacity to learn, socialie and their capacity to fight adeguately against stress.  

This program, called Biosensor, has been created from the U.S. Army for its breeding program.
Their studies have confirmed that there are early development periods in which the sensorial stimulation has the best result. The first period begins at three days of age and ends at about 16 days of age. This is a quickly growing period and neurological development and it is fundamental for the puppy.

In this period it is made a particular early neurological stimulation program, based on years of research made from the U.S.Army. 
It consists of 5 exercises regarding the neurological stimulation.

 
Every session consists of following exercises: 

1.. Tactile Stimulation
2.. Head taken upright
3.. Head taken down
4.. Face upwards
5.. Thermic stimulation

Afterwards different studies following benefits have been observed in puppies 
which have been manipulated following the early neurological stimulation: 

1.. Improving in cardiovascolar performance (heart frequency)
2.. Stronger heart-beats
3.. Stronger suprarenal glands
4.. More tolerance to stress
5.. More resistence to health deseases 

I thank Valeria Rapezzi, "pet therapy trainer" and student in "Animal Breeding and Welfare" who helped me in the research of this program and also to put it into practice.
