Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I ordered this just a tad too late and received it on the day after we initially brought our puppy home. As such, it allows me to have a comparison of what it was like with and without the Snuggle Puppy. The first night of having my puppy, neither of us got any real sleep! I am crate training my pup and she cried terribly throughout the night trying to adjust to being without her littermates while also in a new place with new people. That first night also resulted in potty breaks every 1.5 hours AFTER bed time. The next day the Snuggle Puppy arrived. I stuck to the same feeding/watering routine and the same in/out schedule for her crate. Just before bed time I took her for potty, returned her to the crate for bed time at 10:00 PM and turned on the Snuggle Puppy. She mildly whimpered (no crying or yelping) for less than 1.5 minutes and settled in with the Snuggle Puppy. The next thing I know it was 6am! She had not cried through the night and also did not alert for potty breaks. On night 3 I repeated the pattern and again she remained quiet and comfortable with the Snuggle Puppy from 10PM to 5:45 AM. Last night, was a small break from the norm in which she went into her crate at 10PM without a single whimper, however she cried at midnight in need of a potty break. She was returned to the crate and Snuggle Puppy thereafter and once again not a peep from her until 6am this morning. This item has worked wonders to ease my puppy into it's new environment and crate training pattern. My puppy will be 9 weeks old on 3/7/17. PLEASE NOTE: I did not implement the use of the warming pack; I only used the heartbeat gadget.
