Take the Lead

Learning and behavior change is a lifetime commitment and process.

But that's hard for clients to understand when we have TV entertainers that seemingly resolve complex behavior issues in a 30 minute show and profess that the ultimate goal is to have a "calm" dog. Dogs being shut down or scared because of aversive training methods or tools and then that being passed off as a "calm, relaxed state" is criminal, as far as I'm concerned.

We use a special kind of kelp—Ascophyllum nodosum! This nutrient-rich seaweed is packed with essential minerals, supports thyroid health with iodine, and naturally reduces plaque and tartar. It also helps prevent gum disease and bad breath, promoting better oral hygiene and fresher breath for your dog.

"She asks me to kill the spider.
Instead, I get the most
peaceful weapons I can find.
I take a cup and a napkin.
I catch the spider, put it outside
and allow it to walk away.
If I am ever caught in the wrong place
at the wrong time, just being alive
and not bothering anyone,
I hope I am greeted
with the same kind
of mercy."
― Rudy Francisco, Helium

Healthy swaps!

Most dental chews you find in pet shops are full of artificial ingredients and chemicals, that do NOTHING for your dogs teeth. 🐶

Go all natural and feed your pets a raw meaty bone, this will naturally and easily help to clean your dogs teeth and gums, also helping with fresher and cleaner breath! 🐾

Ensure that the size of the bone fits your dogs size so they don’t choke.

Hiya...I'm a bat...I have a purpose
I don't suck blood, and I certainly don't want to get stuck in your hair.
If I happen to break into your house, please don't hit me with cricket bats or brooms; it really hurts, and I'm so scared. It was an accident; I didn't mean to scare you. If I were to land, maybe, I wouldn't be able to get up, and I will need your help.
Just use a towel to take me out, and I’ll fly right away, promise.
I eat mosquitoes and many other insects.
Our houses are being dismantled for other buildings, and we have a few places to go. So if I happen to fly in yours, turn the light off, leave the outside light on, and leave the door open, I go out in a flash.
Best regards, your harmless bat.

How would you like to eat cornflakes for every meal … every day of your life? Because, when you feed kibble, that’s what you’re giving your dog. Imagine the boredom of the same food … day in, day out. But the real problem is that the nutrition is so poor. Remember they used to say there was more nutrition in the box … than in the actual cornflakes? Well that’s true of a lot of kibble too!

Here are 4 important reasons you should stop giving your dog kibble ...

#1 KIBBLE IS FAKE, DEAD FOOD!
Kibble is processed at high temperatures. The heat kills what little nutrition there is in the original ingredients. So they add in a bunch of synthetic vitamins and minerals … then they can call it “complete and balanced.” Synthetic vitamins and minerals aren’t well absorbed by your dog’s body … and they can even be harmful long-term. So that means kibble doesn’t provide your dog with good nutrition.

#2 KIBBLE IS HIGH IN STARCHY CARBOHYDRATES
It has to be … that’s what holds those little kibble pellets together. Your dog doesn’t need starch in his diet. Starch creates an unhealthy gut … causing digestive and other issues. It leads to long-term chronic conditions … like allergies and skin problems.

#3 KIBBLE IS BAD FOR YOUR DOG’S TEETH
Contrary to what kibble makers tell you … kibble does not clean your dog’s teeth! The food contains no live enzymes or natural nutrients … and all those starches stick to the teeth … so kibble leads to dental issues.
Most kibble-fed dogs have to go under anesthesia every year or so to have their teeth cleaned. Most raw fed dogs naturally have clean teeth and don’t need veterinary dental cleanings.

#4 KIBBLE CONTAINS CARCINOGENS
This is the most vital reason of all to avoid kibble. Your dog’s food could be giving him cancer!

Kibble contains toxins … like aflatoxins, heterocyclic amines, acrylamides and PBDEs (flame retardant chemicals!). These are harmful chemicals your dog shouldn’t eat! And, by the way … these problems are just as bad in all kibbles. Even “premium” kibbles and expensive veterinary prescription foods!

So do your dog a favor and get him on a whole food, preferably raw meat-based diet. It might seem expensive … but you’ll probably save with lower vet bills!
