Something to know about flea tick products. Personally I just had a few fleas on pups. I started 2.weeks now of spraying Wondercide on them daily. I haven't seen on on them since. I'm using the peppermint scent. Also they are on a raw diet with garlic. I also use DE food grade 2x week due to our farm. So far it's working

This is the look boarding dog Athena gave me when she didn’t think I was going to give her some goodies with her dinner. She’s not use to fresh items so I add it to her kibble.

Tonight was left over flank steak cooked rare with cucumbers.

Last night was left over hamburger and organic bone broth.

Banff enjoyed his raw meal tonight of egg/crushed shells, chuck roast, bone broth, coconut oil and cucumbers.

Praying for all our friends and members in the path of Hurricane Ian. Stay safe everyone.

Nothing like raw for dinner. First up was the supplements with raw egg and bone broth. Next the raw steak was mixed in. And finally 2 very happy pups.

HERE’S WHY IT IS SO IMPORTANT TO ADD FRESH “HUMAN FOOD” TO YOUR PET’S KIBBLE

Today, ninety-six percent of pet owners around the globe are feeding dry commercial pet foods. Of those 96%, there is a large majority that believes dried commercial pet food is really all their pet needs and would never stop to consider the benefits of adding fresh “human food”.

(“Human food” definition in this article: clean sources of meat-based proteins and some organic plant matter, not beer and nachos 😉)

There are many reasons why some of these pet parents feel this way, however the most popular reason today seems to be the 50-year-old rumor that is in existence and still spreading.

You know the one: “Giving your animal table scraps is bad!”

How or when did this terrible rumor start?

Well, if we go back in time, research shows that shortly after the invention of processed pet foods, manufacturers were having a hard time convincing pet parents to make the switch from foods in their refrigerators to their commercial pet foods.

So in 1964, the pet food industry, along with the PFI, joined together with a whole bunch of marketing dollars and launched one of the most influential campaigns the pet world had ever seen: the “Ban All Table Scraps from your Pets’ Bowls” campaign!

Through thousands of newspapers, magazines, and news stations, the public was warned about the dangers of table food scraps or “human food” and the importance of feeding “processed” commercial pet food. From there, the giant smear campaign took off!

Not only did this clever campaign work, but it was so impactful that now, 50 years later, folks are still in fear of offering anything that is not labeled pet food.

SO IS IT A GOOD THING TO ONLY OFFER YOUR PET DRIED KIBBLE?

Not according to ongoing research it isn’t, especially with today’s cancer rates being 1 in 2 dogs!

In a 2005 study conducted at Purdue University on Scottish Terriers, the results showed that adding fresh vegetables to dry commercial kibble actually prevented and/or slowed down the development of transitional cell carcinoma (aka bladder cancer)!

In the study, dogs ate a diet of dry commercial pet food, while some got an assortment of vegetables added to the mix at least 3 times per week.

When the study was concluded, according to the researchers, they weren’t really shocked by the results.

Here’s what they found:

Dogs that ate any green leafy vegetables, like broccoli, had reduced the risk of developing bladder cancer by 90% and the dogs that consumed any yellow – orange vegetables like carrots reduced the risk by 70%!

Seriously! A lousy carrot helped smash the potential of cancer.

Yes, of course cats are obligate carnivores (must have meat to survive) and our dogs are facultative carnivores (carnivores with omnivorous potential if circumstances demand) so offering clean meat-based protein sources should always be top priority and essential.

However, because today’s world is ever-so changing due to factory farmed livestock being fed genetically modified grains and our planet being contaminated with every type of pesticide, fungicide and larvicide, the importance of fresh, organic plant matter to help detox the body couldn’t be more crucial.

So if the “cancer reducing benefit” doesn’t tickle your fancy enough to convince you to add any “human fresh foods” to your pet’s bowl, then maybe think of it this way:

How bad would it suck if someone forced you to eat dry processed foods your whole lIfe?!

I would like to tell you a little about Me. I had a boxer named Rosie ❤️ She was my 1st boxer and 1st female dog. She was the most amazing and was my Shadow and showed unconditional love. Rosie was 9.5 years old healthy, never had surgery since she was spayed. Than about a month ago I found out she had aggressive cancer stage 5b t cell lymphoma. I than with no hesitation seemed holistic approach. I DID EVERYTHING I could. Rosie passed June 2, 2022. 💔 I know it wasn't the food I fed her or supplements. I believe environment and overvaccinations played a HUGE part. This is why we need to bring awareness to everyone for more natural and holistic approach.
I also have a 16 month old boxer Raya ❤️. We have switched Vets to holistic and I feel for Raya and my brothers dog Java❤️ Rosies sister..we are on the right path for these girls. Im a dog walker and my brother a dog trainer. So we will be posting some advise and guidance along the way as well as " healthy life" for our pups 🐶
Thank you!
Let's all work together for our beautiful furbabies! ❤️ 🐕 🐾 1 🐾 at a time...

My name is Snow I was an emergency rescue/foster. My mommy got a call from BARC asking if she could hold me for a few days til I had a foster home. So mommy came to get me and I got in truck. I can tell what she was thinking, I was a mess, I needed a bath and medical attention. I got home to find I was on a farm and saw these funny looking animals, she said they are goats. Whatever that is I said. So in the house and I saw this handsome guy his name was Mason. Wow, stud muffins for sure. I got a bath and rested. Mommy sat with me all day in bedroom and I got to see Mason through gate for a few days. I had heartworm and had a bacterial infection on my nose and face. Well all that is history, mommy fell in love with me first hour. I got better and Mason fell in love with me, Yahoo. I now reside in heaven I got sick with cancer ,broke mommas heart, she cries almost everyday but she always talks to me I hear her. I miss my family and I know momma is trying to help others give us a better life. It hurts me to see my momma hurt but glad she is finding better ways to help other pups. There's alot of us up here in heaven and we love our parents. My name is snow and I love you.
