Food & Health

"Canidae" all life stages is the dog food we ar currently using. HOWEVER....I will be trying Taste of The Wild soon as I do not like the amount or consistency of the stools so far on Cannidae...will see how that goes.

In our quest for health.....both human and critter alike....

I am finding that what God made is prevailing over all that we "think" we know.

I am finding that whole foods in their original state without GMO's,

Hormones, or other "trash" is really what is best for our bodies. This

is not about a "fad" diet or low fat, or vegetarian diet.....and so on blah blah blah.....

It is about taking charge of our own health. It is about gtting rid of the Poisons in our diets! THAT is a great place to start!

For us: We are Doing non GMO, Organic, no aspartame, no sucralose, no non organic soy, no high fructose corn syrup. We are also doing low

Carb, no yeast (about 6 weeks on, 1-2 weeks off) No sugar except basically what is found in milk. Very little fruit, and a touch of honey.

We are taking Diatomaceous Earth (food grade only) daily, Using Xylitol and stevia for sweeteners.....Email me if you have other questions

about people diet :o) I am not an expert by any means so enquire at your own risk!

About Dogs and Puppies:

We are switching from Purina and trying Canidae ( registered name )

We are not sure how it is going to go but we are attempting to do the best we can for our little immune systems all over the place....

From the Kids to the dogs, to the ponies.....the poultry, the cows....all of it.

Spot on Flea and Tick Meds:

We have been researching about the health risks of these questionable products that  have been known to cause serious health issues even death. We are currently looking for a safe but effective alternative.
