1. What do you feed your dogs?

Our dogs are now on 100% raw diet. We can't even explain the great changes it has done for our dogs. The benefits of feeding raw are just amazing. We feed a mixture of chicken, pork, beef, and any other great meats we can get. We feed prey model raw which is made up of 80% meat, 10% bone and 10% organ each meal. We feed each dog about 2% of their body weight. It takes a LOT of research to feed raw so before just throwing your dog some raw meat please do your research. You can hurt your dog more then you can help him if not educated. For a helpful calculator on how to figure out how much your dog needs each day click on the link below.

2. What do you feed your puppies?

We feed them tons of love and attention...no just kidding they get plenty of that :) Our puppies are on a diet of Eukanuba Large Breed Puppy. Included in purchase of your puppy is information about Eukanuba products and promotional materials, as well as a small bag of food.

3. How are your puppies and dogs housed?

All of our dogs are inside/outside dogs. They are raised as apart of our family. When outside they have a huge kennel area and dog house that is carpeted and insulated with heating and air conditioning to keep them as comfortable as possible along with a huge yard to run around in. Our puppies are in our house 24/7 till the age of 4 weeks old, where we start introducing them to being outside, pending weather permits it. At the age of 6 weeks puppies will be fully adapted to being outside. All of our puppies will have begun to be crate trained at night.

4. What vaccines will my puppy have recieved when i purchase it?

All puppies recieve their first set of shots at age of 6 weeks along with their first deworming. Puppies will also recieve another set of shots at age 9 weeks along with another deworming. All puppies come with health certification and are checked by a licensed vet. They also come with a micro chip already placed.

5. How do you get your dogs so big?

A good friend at Ironmanpits taught us GENETICS, GENETICS GENETICS is the key. Our dogs also get A LOT of exerscise including weekly runs and rope action to help evolve and tone their muscles. A good diet also helps them get to their full potential. Another key is you get what you pay for, you cant expect to buy a puppy with classic genetic and think you can get an xl out of it.

6. Do you offer ear cropping?

We no longer offer ear cropping but know a few very well known vets in town that do ear cropping.
