The FDA has recently issued a dog food recall regarding grain free pet foods and canine dilated cardiomyopathy or DCM. This is one of the main reasons I went to feeding the food I feed (link at the bottom) as they never have a recall and never use ingredients from China, plus they only make small batches which allows them to make a premium product and make quality control the number one priority.

Top 16 Pet Food Brands Associated with DCM in Dogs:

Acana - 67
Zignature - 64
Taste of the Wild - 53
4Health - 32
Earthborn Holistic - 32
Blue Buffalo - 31
Nature's Domain - 29
Fromm - 24
Merrick -16
California Natural -15
Natural Balance -15
Orijen -12
Nature's Variety - 11
NutriSource - 10
Nutro - 10
Rachael Ray Nutrish - 10

Safe pet food link at the bottom of this post.

To check out the 20 plus year old business of this safe recall free pet food for both dogs and cats please visit www.safepetfood.co and feel free to purchase a small trial bag to see if your dog or cat likes the food. Remember when switching to a new food do it very slowly to avoid stomach upset!!!

The FDA has updated their investigation into cases of DCM, identifying 16 brands eaten by dogs in the official report. Only brands named 10 or more times are included in this list while some reports listed multiple brands and others listed none.

This is a very important part of raising puppies. Please do your best to to prevent puppies from going home too early!! It can create some major behavioral issues!

Winter is half way gone and summer will be here before you know it!! Exercising your dog is important and good for you too!! Just remember, constructive exercise is better than letting them run crazy!! Use play time and learning time together! Especially if you have a dog that LOVES their toys!! This will only make your job easier in keeping their skills sharp and quick. Keep it fun and fast paced!! Watch other videos in comments for more details!!

When you give the puppies a litter box and mommy decides that it’s a therapeutic bed, you don’t stand a chance in potty training!

Special group class tomorrow September 24th for those that are members. We will be having a drone shooting video. 9:30am at the usual place this last year. Please check the group page for further details.

30/08/2022

Next Group Class this Saturday September 3rd at 9:30 am. Usual place. Members should have the location on their calendar. If you do not, please message me and we can fix that!!

Nose work/ scent detection at my place in Graham at 1pm Saturday the 3rd as well! Address is on our location page here! See you then!

12/08/2022

Nose work/scent detection classes starting this Saturday at 1pm at my place in Graham, WA! Message me for the address if you don’t have it!

Nose work is growing in popularity due to the usefulness it has created in both competitions and in the family! Not only can you teach your dog to indicate on specific scents, you can also teach them to find certain objects like keys, wallets and cellphones! Makes it handy when you lose or misplace things!

Besides the benefits of a trained dog, you also get a tired worn out dog very quickly! Excellent activity for all breeds that have any kind of food or toy drive! It is also fun for the handler to learn! You get educated on how the basic types of training work and how to apply them! Like, when is the best time to use which type and how to avoid getting stuck in the first phase!! Learn how to really read your dog! It gets quite fun, like a treasure hunt!

Teach your dog a foolproof indicator that doesn’t rely on the handlers influence! In fact, you can teach them to deny you from accidentally pulling them off the mark till they get their reward! This way you cannot miss or get false indicators.

Classes are held as a group and are paid by the class per day for now and start at $35 each session. We will be training AKC scent and narcotics for K-9’s.
