Hi
Has anyone used a heated bed pad for a puppy? I have been told of a product called Snugglesafe - it is a plastic disc that goes in the microwave and then stays warm for about 10 hours - just wondered if anyone had used one and what they thought of it?
Thanks

How old is your puppy? I would think that so long as s/he is over 8 weeks old and is in a climate controlled building (i.e. inside your house) you shouldn't have a problem with needed a heat blanket for your pup...

Thank you. We don't have the puppy yet but planning and doing some research! A few people have suggested putting a covered hotwater bottle with a new puppy a night (I guess 8 weeks old or so)??

I've heard of using a hot water bottle or a ticking clock wrapped in towels and/or getting one of those plush beating "hearts" to comfort your new pup in the weeks after s/he leaves the litter. I've never used them personally and haven't had a problem.
