Strong focus on health and wellness
Our dogs and puppies are fed raw, high quality diet from Grenier Crue, RawPaw, meats from local farms and butcher shops, raw frozen fish, eggs, seasonal berries and fruits, greens and vegetables from local market and sometimes cooked homemade meals.
We are very conservative with vaccinations, doing only core vaccines during the first year and titer tests afterwards. We do not use systemic parasiticides such as Bravecto, Revolution or others for our dogs unless absolutely necessary. (confirmed flea infestation, tick presence). Heartworm is not much of concern in our cold Canadian climate, so we do not use any preventive medications, however, we do test our dogs for heartworm (it always comes back negative). We do use Seresto flea collars and topical repellent veterinary preparations such as Vectra 3D very sparingly and only during high risk season.
