Healthy Diet for Happy Dogs: Our Feeding Practices
What Goes into Our Dogs’ Meals?
We are committed to providing our breeding dogs with the highest quality nutrition through a diet of healthy, whole, human-grade food. We believe that a balanced and nutrient-rich diet is essential for the development of healthy puppies and also beneficial for their well-being, vitality, and longevity.
Our feeding approach focuses on fresh ingredients that include lean proteins, vegetables, and whole grains, all carefully selected to meet their unique dietary needs.
By avoiding artificial additives, preservatives, and fillers, we ensure that our dogs receive only natural, wholesome nutrition. This commitment to premium-quality food supports not only their overall health but also plays a crucial role in ensuring that our puppies are born to healthy, strong parents.

From Our Bowl to Theirs: A Look at Our Dogs' Feeding Standards
Feeding our breeding dogs human-grade whole foods offers a wealth of benefits that go beyond simply satisfying their hunger.
Proper nutrition helps ensure that our female dogs experience healthy pregnancies and are better able to nurse and care for their litters. Moreover, puppies born to well-nourished parents often have a stronger start in life, benefiting from better growth rates, healthier immune systems, and robust development.
These nutrients are crucial for maintaining strong muscles, a healthy immune system, and vibrant coats, while also supporting energy levels and cognitive function. Whole foods provide a rich source of essential nutrients, including high-quality proteins, vitamins, minerals, and healthy fats, which contribute to their overall well-being and help them maintain optimal physical condition.
With a diet centered around human-grade ingredients, our dogs avoid the harmful fillers, artificial preservatives, and additives often found in lower-quality pet foods, reducing the risk of allergies, digestive issues, and other health complications. For breeding dogs, this level of nutrition is particularly important, as it plays a vital role in fertility, gestation, and lactation.
Ultimately, feeding our dogs whole, human-grade food is a commitment to their health and happiness, supporting not only their well-being but also contributing to the quality and vitality of future generations.
