We are a family living in Oroville, Washington on Osoyoos Lake. We have 3 children still at home, 2 cats, 2 Newfoundlands, Dot our second generation bulldog, Patches our 3rd generation and Muffin our 4th generation. It is my goal to breed healthy, sweet and gorgeous dogs that make excellent family pets . I have always loved animals, volunteered at the SPCA as a teenager, worked for a vet as a tech for many years and then groomed in my home for several years.
There is nothing we enjoy more as a family than raising a litter of puppies.
Puppies are raised in our bedroom until 4 weeks when they are moved to the living room. They are loved, cuddled and kissed most of their waking hours. We start them on crate training, house training, coming when called and sitting. Our puppies are health guaranteed and we are available to help for the life of the puppy and will take a dog back at any time for any reason. We feel we are responsible for the lives we bring into this world and will help in any way we can. We microchip our puppies to ensure they are permanently identified . I follow Dr. Jean Dobbs shot protocol as I feel over vaccinating may cause problems and do give the first vaccination before they leave. Puppies will also be wormed and vet checked. I really appreciate being able to keep in touch and knowing how my puppies are doing and do ask that you keep me informed of puppies progress occasionally.
I was feeding 100% natural raw diet which consists of Beef, chicken, turkey and occasionally fish as the meat. Carrots, beans,cabbage, spinach, peas, kale, tomatoes,blueberries, cranberries, apples and apricots are the veggies and fruit. They also get a small amount of grain which is either oats or brown rice with ground flax seed. Other items in the diet are cottage cheese, yogurt, apple cider vinegar,molasses, fish oil, coconut oil and kelp.
Lots of raw meaty bones for chewing and a couple of eggs a week.
I found it was more than I could do for 5 dogs and take care of my family to so we are doing some premium dry and canned food as well now.
