Smart Pet Love Snuggle Puppy Behavioral Aid Dog Toy

We brought this Snuggle Puppy plushie (in the brown and white color) along for our new mini dachshund puppy when we picked her up last year. The Snuggle Puppy was bigger than her at first! She started wrestling with it right away, but when I turned on the heartbeat she’d startle and run away from it. The heartbeat doesn’t make a soft heartbeat sound, it’s more like a little plonking noise from an old electronic game and she didn’t associate it with a real heartbeat. She does love the plushie itself; she’s 18 months now and sleeps in her crate with her head propped up on her Snuggle Puppy. So I guess it was a good buy because she’s still attached to it, but honestly it was very expensive for just We brought this Snuggle Puppy plushie (in the brown and white color) along for our new mini dachshund puppy when we picked her up last year.

I did buy extra heat packs, but we ended up getting a special heating pad for her crate so we didn’t need that function either. Yes she’s very spoiled. … more

We purchased four Snuggle pups, two for each of our dogs. The male Spaniel mix does not use his as a sleep aid, but as a toy, and it has held up extremely well, and is carried all around the home. The white pup is being used as a sleep aid, with the "heart" and warming pack, by our Doxie/Poodle mix. She sometimes has a problem settling down at bedtime, and her white Snowball has been a true blessing. I would highly recommend this product for either use!

This has been an absolute must have for my puppy! It has made crate training her so much easier! She loves snuggling up with it and resting her head on it at night. She has a tendency to chew on every other toy, but she has not chewed on this one (fingers crossed that doesn't change!). The heartbeat helps calm her down and the only nights that my puppy has been inconsolable in her crate and needs to come out are the nights that the batteries in the heartbeat device had died. I always keep extra batteries close by now (I turn it on during nap time as well, which is why I think I go through batteries so often). This has probably been one of my best puppy purchases and I definitely consider it an This has been an absolute must have for my puppy! It has made crate training her so much easier!

We love this comforting puppy toy! Chloe is a small pup and took right to this toy. It keeps her calm if I need to leave her in the Zampa for a few minutes. Definitely worth it! Thank you Chewy for being such a great company, always amazing to speak to the great customer service people!!!

So, added a brand new (10 week old) Basset to the family and the first night was rough for us all. Lillet really missed her littermates. Bought this to put in her crate whenever she crates and she sleeps like a long-eared rock. Get it. But I have been buying glove warmer packs as replacement heat pads (same stuff but cheaper).

This is adorable but sadly not for my dogs. I bought it hoping my adult female pitbull mix would take to it when stressed. She not only has no mothering instincts but she won't even get on the same dog bed with it(she doesn't lay right next to anything except my feet if I'm sitting in a chair.) Anyway, it will be donated to my favorite shelter.

We recently lost our beloved pet and have been grieving for her ever since then. We are planning to get a puppy in the Spring so we ordered the Snuggle Puppy so we would have it when we get our new baby. It is just adorable! We have ordered from Chewy for years and they are a wonderful company!

This is an awesome product. Just keep in mind the heat pacs are disposable after one or two uses. This can get pricey . Perhaps OTC toe and hand warmers can be used??? The "heartbeat" option is perfect. My old Labradoodle just lost his brother and is barking all night. Took a chance this might help but he wasn't the least bit interested. All circumstances however are different.

When I tell you this changed our lives, it changed our lives. My 4 month old puppy was waking up 3-4 times a night crying in her kennel, no matter if I took her outside an hour before. I was sleep deprived, she was sleep deprived and we were all starting to go a little nuts. I was hesitant to spend $40 on a toy that might not even work, but finally I had had enough of not sleeping. My puppy has now allowed me to sleep through the night for 7 nights in a ROW! I turn it on right before she goes in her kennel, and I don’t know if it’s the sound that satisfies her, or the feeling of something soft next to her. Please buy this for your dog, your puppy, yourself, whoever. It’s amazing and so worth When I tell you this changed our lives, it changed our lives.

This is a critical ingredient to helping my new puppy sleep through the night. I don't want my dog to have unfettered access to soft toys, so I turn the heart beat on, set it inside the toy, and put it on top of his crate. I used the one provided heat pack, but didn't feel compelled to keep buying more.
