Early Scent Introduction

Early Scent Introduction (ESI) is used to introduce new scents to puppies on day 3-16 of life. Studies have shown that this helps improve:
1. Scent Awareness
2. Build Confidence
3. Stronger adrenal glands
4. More tolerance to stress

The process:

ESI requires handling the puppies one at a time at age 3-16 days old. The handler starts with one pup and stimulates by holding the new scent in front of the pup for 5 seconds. The handling of each pup once per day involves the following scents:

• DAY 3 – Soil 
• DAY 4 – Pine Shavings 
• DAY 5 – Cinnamon 
  
• DAY 6 – Star Anise 
  
• DAY 7 – Lavender 
  
• DAY 8 – Black Tea 
  
• DAY 9 – Tennis Ball 
  
• DAY 10 – Coconut 
  
• DAY 11 – Leather 
  
• DAY 12 – Rabbit 
  
• DAY 13 – Chamomile 
  
• DAY 14 – Alpaca 
  
• DAY 15 – Cloves 
  
• ​DAY 16 – Lemongrass
