THERMAL STIMULATION – Use a damp towel that has been cooled in a refrigerator
for at least five minutes. Place the pup on the towel, feet down. Do not restrain
it from moving.
Time of stimulation 3-5 seconds.
I
strictly follow the Bio Sensor program with the following exceptions. The program
is started on the fourth day. On the 3rd day our puppies travel to the Veterinarian
to have tails docked and dew claws removed. The trip to the Vet is
more than enough neurological stimulation. I also use the cold metal top of my
clothes dryer as the source of my thermal stimulation. This is when I also weigh
the puppies. These exercises improve the
development of the puppy’s neurological systems by early stimulation and stress.
Five benefits have been observed in dogs that were exposed to the Bio Sensor stimulation
exercises:
- Improved Cardiovascular Performance,
- Stronger Heart
Beats,
- Stronger Adrenal Glands,
- More Tolerance to Stress, and
-
Greater Resistance to Disease. I do not substitute
the Bio Sensor method for socialization and handling of the puppies. The Bio Sensor
method is a well-documented puppy development tool. Many puppies bred for field,
security, and guide work are introduced to the Bio Sensor Program as part of their
development. - Diana Thompson For

1.
TACTILE STIMULATION - Holding the pup in one hand, the handler gently
stimulates (tickles) the pup between the toes on any one foot using a Q-tip. It
is not necessary to see that the pup is feeling the tickle.
2.
HEAD HELD ERECT - Using both hands, the pup is held perpendicular to the
ground, (straight up), so that its head is directly above its tail. This is an
upwards position. 
3.
HEAD POINTED DOWN – Holding the pup firmly with both hands the head is
reversed and is pointed downward so that it is pointing towards the ground. 
4.
SUPINE POSITION - Hold the pup so that its back is resting in the palm
of both hands with its muzzle facing the ceiling. The pup while on its back is
allowed to sleep struggle.
