It really works!
OMG....love this, whish I would have gotten it sooner! Had my puppy for two weeks before I got this. She is now 9 weeks old. She hates her crate. I put this in with her and she she suggles next to it and will sleep all night. She even likes her crate during the day now...Before she would scream bloody murder. This is a great product...get it if your puppy is suggling with separation disorder.

Worked great for our new puppy. Kept her calm and able to sleep though the night
We got this for our recently adopted dachshund puppy. She was 10 weeks old when we got her and wanted her to ease into her new life away from her littermates. This allowed her to relax and sleep through the night on day one. She still likes to snuggle up to it at 17 weeks.

Great for new pups!
This was the perfect thing for my dachshund puppy. The size was perfect for him to snuggle in his crate, and the fur was very soft. The rhythmic heartbeat helped him not to feel lonely when we first brought him home. The Velcro closure for the battery pack and heartbeat were very sturdy, ensuring our pup wouldn't be able to get to them. It helped very much during those first weeks with helping him settle into our home . Highly reccomend it.

Really calms my puppy
OK, picture it. Circa 2023. It's a rainy day in Charlotte and you're at the airport waiting for your puppy to arrive from the breeder. Yout stomach is in knots as you cannot wait to kiss and snuggle your new family member....seconds feel like hours and you begin to sweat with anticipation Then it happens. The sliding doors open to reveal the tiniest, cutest, goodest boy that you have ever laid eyes on. Your heart soars and you cannot help but grin ear to ear. You made it, you're a pup parent. As you carefully place your precious cargo in the car you notice that he looks sad. He is confused, he misses his litter mates. In a moment that was supposed to be beautiful, you feel this crushing heartbreak for the little guy. So what can you do? Snuggle puppy. Yes...the snuggliest toy pup with a working heartbeat (has an 8 hour timer, or can be shut off manually by pressing down for a couple seconds) and warming pads to help your new furry friend feel some comfort. They hit it off instantly. My puppy doesn't go anywhere without clumsily dragging his snuggle pup with him. We all know crate training can be a nightmare, so why make it harder than it has to be? Get you a snuggle puppy good sis/bro. Puppies are used to piling on top of their litter mates during sleepy time and this has been a fabulous substitute. The heartbeat can be a bit overwhelming at first but they quickly get used to it and it's smooth sailing. Will it resolve all your issues with new puppy anxiety and crate training? No. Will it stop your puppy from getting the blues while they adjust to their new home? Also no. But will it assist in their self soothing and overall comfortability? Heck yes. Get one. Today. AND these toys take a good beating. My puppy chews and tosses this thing around constantly and it has held up very well. No thanks needed. I'm just your average, everyday puppy mama sharing the good word of snuggle puppy.

Absolute MUST for new puppy parents
Our 14wk old puppy adores his Snuggle Puppy. He sleeps 5+ hours every night since he came home at 8 wks. I now rest easier when I hear it too, knowing our boy feels safe and content. Highly recommended!

Seriously Works!!!
OMG. This little miracle is a game changer! Our new little fur baby Bandit, Pom puppy, (got at 8 weeks, on Nov 21st) was bonded to his twin brother and they slept on top of each other. Well, after a night of almost no sleep, I found this guy online and ordered 2. One for our Bandit and one for Bandit's twin brother, Gizmo, who was adopted by our Son and daughter in law. As soon as we got it (Thank God for Amazon 1 day delivery!), got him set up, put him in Bandit's bed and little Bandit just cuddled against him, chewed on him a little, and off to sleep he went! Slept for 5 hours straight! Yay, so did we!!! Exact same thing with Gizmo!! It's been 3 weeks and both still love their Snuggle Puppies. Bandit continues to snuggle him and go right to sleep! I set the heartbeat function to the battery saver version (runs for 8 hours then shuts off, starts again with slight motion) and this works well, although today I'm having to change the batteries that came with it as it's not as strong a heartbeat as it initially was. One of the best things ever made!

Worked great, for about 3 weeks...
This was great when I first received it, perfect for our new puppy. However, we've used it less than a month now and the "heartbeat" feature no longer works, despite replacing the batteries with new ones. It makes no sound anymore, which is the whole reason why I bought this.

Worth the price. 11/20/2025, After my experience. Not Worth the price.
HERE IS AN UPDATE: It works fine and SAVES A LOT OF BARKING. After a month of use it is working on the original 1 batter, very good. 11/20/2025, Today the batteries died. When I opened the battery compartment and removed a battery, one spring was detached at battery end. I tried to install it and could not. So now the Heart is broken. It looks like a poor design that could be improved on. 11/20/2025, now I feel it w not worth the price. Cheaply made, If I can't change the batteries and it breaks. Is there a warranty on this heart heart?

Es muy suave y resistente al mismo tiempo. Al principio le tenía pavor porque pensaba que estaba vivo pero poco a poco lo fue aceptando. Nos tomó varias semanas. Ahora sí lo usamos en el coche y cuando se queda solita o se agita.

The Original Snuggle Puppy has been an amazing comfort toy for our dog. The heartbeat feature is incredibly soothing and really helps reduce anxiety, especially during crate time and at night. It mimics the feeling of being close to littermates, which makes a big difference for young or nervous dogs. The toy is soft, well made, and the size is perfect for small breeds. The heartbeat unit is easy to insert and remove, and the overall design feels durable enough for daily use. Our puppy bonded with it quickly and sleeps much more calmly now. Overall, this is a fantastic product for easing transitions, reducing stress, and helping puppies feel secure. Highly recommend for new puppy owners or dogs that need extra comfort.

So soft and snuggly. My kids love it and I hope our new puppy will too!

Perfect night time companion for my puppy, he seemed to be comforted by the heartbeat. I put it on the 8 hour cycle at night. Changed the batteries after 5 weeks and that was easy enough to do.

Peluche très appréciée par mon chiot et qui paraît assez résistante.
