LIFESTYLE CHOICES
Would you ever tie/chain a dog to a tree or doghouse for extended periods?
While these are not requirements for adopting from our rescue, we encourage raw feeding in some capacity and learning/using natural parasiticides for raising healthy companion pets. We teach both and are happy to show you how easy, cost effective, safe and efficacious they are. These include: raw feeding, natural heartworm prevention, titer testing in lieu of annual vaccinations and using natural flea prevention. Please let us know if this is of interest to you and why.
Are you willing to make sure some type of heartworm prevention program is used?
