*Caring*Feeding*Grooming*

    One of the most important first I can tell you about your puppy/dog is please understand the mental development and behaviors.  It is so important, and I have so many puppies and dogs over my life, and I have misunderstood so many queues that my dogs are trying to tell me.   I have enforcement bad behaviors, and I have some make some poor confused dogs. It will be easier for you and your dog.  This is one the best books and I have learned on development from birth to adult.  ​"The Art of Raising a Puppy"

Feeding

    I will admit, I haven't done a ton of research, the dog food market is so highly competitive.  Not the mention, the prices are through the roof.  2ndly, it is also a top priority to feed a high-quality dog food. It is the primary food their dog will eat if not the only food their will eat, so they need a healthy diet, or their dog will suffer the consequences.  I was refer by an excellent breeder (I see her as the BEST) by excellent food and my dogs do great and I have not change for several years.  I feed a mixed of 50/50 mix of Redpaw X-Series puppy & Bil-Jac puppy for 1st year.  For adult 50/50 mix of Redpaw Edge 32K. 

    Consult your veterinarian.  I feel a daily probiotic is a good thing, others feel it is only necessity when there is digestion upset.  Dogzymes are an also good resource.

Grooming

I am learning to groom my 2 adults girls.  I started 4 years ago.  I am STILL an amateur.  I really enjoy it and my girls are very patient with me.  I learn something new every time.  And sometimes I still learn things NOT to do!  I was also refer to the "Muddy Creek" grooming training video and I couldn't have learned without it.
