Smart Pet Love New Puppy Starter Kit

I purchased this Snuggle Puppy in October 2019 for the golden retriever puppy we would be picking up in early November. I had read the positive reviews and thought it sounded like a good purchase to help alleviate anxiety and stop the puppy from crying when crated in our bedroom at night. The premise of the Snuggle Puppy made sense and I hoped it would help get the new puppy to relax and accept her nighttime crating. (I hate being woken up at night and this is why our cats are not allowed in the bedroom.) This is a wonderful product! We brought our little golden girl home when she was just over 8 weeks old - she had never been separated from her litter prior to us.

We brought our little golden girl home when she was just over 8 weeks old - she had never been separated from her litter prior to us. We turned the snuggle puppy on and put it in her crate from the very first night. I 100% recommend this product to anyone who is looking at these reviews - I paid full price for this and would buy it brand new from Chewy all over again if we ever get another puppy. Night #1 in her new home and her first time being crated, she cried and whined non-stop for about 25-30 minutes after being crated before she settled down and went to sleep. Nights #2-3, she cried non-stop for the first ten or so minutes, then blissful quiet. Nights #4-5, she cried intermittently for about 5-10 minutes, then went to sleep. She hasn’t cried since!! We used the removable heartbeat piece religiously at her bedtime for the first month and half or so. It worked so well! We now have a 4.5 month old golden puppy who has no problem going right to sleep in her crate and does not whine nor cry during the night - snuggle puppy or no, heartbeat or no. I’m so glad I found this product: I’ve been telling all my friends who are thinking about getting a new pup that this is a true miracle product for new puppy parents. We ordered our snuggle puppy as part of a large order containing two large dog crates and a dog pen, as well as treats and toys and thus had free shipping. The order arrived only two days later, and everything was in great condition. … more

I snagged this before we brought our new rescue puppy home. Since it would be her first nights away from her mom and siblings I wanted some comforts for her to help make the transition easier. She LOVES everything in this kit. The puppy is a must and she sleeps with it (and the blanket) every time. She can’t get enough of her two favorite toys either. Thank you for such a quality starter kit!!

This is by far the best product ever for getting our new puppy to sleep! After a restless 1st couple of nights I purchased this kit. Our little girl curled right up on the blanket, put her head on the puppy and drifted off for many hours! Worth its weight in gold! I’ve already recommended it to several friends.

Purchased for an 8 week Pug/Boston terrier mix who was only 4 lbs. The stuffed animal was larger than he was and I think this scared him initially. The heartbeat is also really pronounced/kind of obnoxious and we didn't find that it helped very much. However, My dog loved the blanket and has grown to love the teether as well. Overall not the worst purchase but wish I could have gotten more use out of the stuffed dog.

This is the perfect "puppy welcome gift" and even better for your own new addition! The heartbeat dog made my new babies first nights a dream! (8 1/2 week old Cocker Spaniel). She absolutely loved the chew toys, played to them immediately(not always true with other toys)

We picked up our boy from the breeder's and he had a lot of anxiety when he first came home. He wasn't comfortable until we placed the stuffed toy pup with the heating pad in his crate. Thanks to this, his first night with us was an easy transition to the crate and he quickly settled in!

My eight week old puppy loves it. It stands up to his sharp teeth and helps him sleep through the night. I don't know how long the battery lasts yet but so far I recommend it.

This was the best purchase for a new puppy. The snuggle puppy with the heart beat piece was the best. She loves it and sleeps through the night. Love the heat packs too.

My first litter and my girl only had one puppy. So, I bought this thinking it would keep the puppy warm and it has. I also have a covered heating pad in one corner. The newborn loves snuggling up to snuggle puppy. The other items are nice, too, especially the soft blanket. I will say that the original warming packs that come with this are BETTER and last LONGER than the ones you order to resupply. Not sure why.

Perfect way to welcome home a new puppy! The heartbeat stuffed dog is very comforting for our little girl and she sleeps with it every night! The blanket is soft and the teething toys are perfect size! And the warmers that you can place inside the stuffed dog really make it feel like a mama dog
