PRODUCTS USED BY OUR BREEDING PROGRAM

---

We use this crate for all of our dogs and once the puppies reach 6 weeks old.  They get 10-14 days of crate training and should be able to be in the crate for up to 5 hours by the time they go home.

Budget Friendly - We love this pad because it doesn't hold hair and can be washed.  They are super easy to clean in the tub and can be air dried.

Our favorite - This pad is amazing and used by our adult dogs.  It can be washed and dry in a matter of hours.  It's virtually indestructible and made from recycled material. It doesn't hold hair and our dogs love it!

Budget Friendly - Heelers love to sleep in dark quiet areas.  We found that if their crate is covered they will sleep at the back when they need alone time.  This cover is super easy to wipe down and keep clean.

Our favorite - This cover is 100% breathable cotton canvas.  Once our puppies stop chewing everything including their bed, they get one.  They are great because they roll up on two sides matching the 2 sided opening on our favorite crates.

We feed only kibble until they are 3-6 months old.  We begin mixing with raw food around 3-6 months.  Then we slowly transition and may keep the additional calories of the kibble up to age 2.  Honest Kitchen can also be found at Petco and other pet suppliers.   More information.

NuVet Plus either wafer or powder and NuJoint DS or Plus depending on the needs of the dog.  

We use several natural limited ingredient treats including this one from Mercola.  We also like natural jerky treats.  Just watch the ingredients.

Krill Oil is an important source for fatty acids and immune support.

Organic Fermented Food makes sure they get the vegetables they need even if they are a bit picky like our dogs.

 Happy-Furever™ Oil for brain, cognitive, digestive, and immune support.  We love that it helps with allergies, anxiety, and inflammation.  This is the highest quality oil at the very best price. 

We rotate between Candident and Irish Kelp.  Candident prevents plaque and removes tarter for clean teeth and good breath. Irish Kelp supports a healthy immune system among a few other amazing benefits.

We are huge fans of the products made by Mercola; supplements by NuVet and CBD oils by Paw Origins as they are high quality, organic and sustainably sourced.  Each of our dogs has different needs and we use too many to list all of them.  If you have a question, we'd be happy to help you choose the right products for your puppy.

Our program is tailored to the needs of each dog.  We feed based on the BARF (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food) method.  I'd be happy to help you create a food and supplement plan that meets your puppy or dogs needs.  Email me for more information brenda@rundownranchcattledogs.com

These and these are great while they are teething and mouthing everything in your home.  They are tactile and squeaky, for enrichment.  They can be cleaned, and we find they drag them around for months.  Just toss the stuffing and squeaker to keep the puppy safe.  One is included in your puppy go home kit.

These sheds are the perfect size for your puppy and will last a very long time.  Once they get bigger move to this size.  Sheds are natural and safe unlike synthetic chews and rawhide which is extremely dangerous and undigestable.

Kong makes balls that have the squeakers hidden deep inside to prevent choking.

Here are a few other toys used by our dogs.  Most of them are safe and durable, however Heelers are power chewers and can destroy ANY toy.  Lots of toys, bones and chews will save your home!

We get our bones locally, but this is what we use.  They keep your dogs teeth clean if chewed regularly.  Real beef bones for dogs with marrow are naturally rich in glucosamine and chondroitin to support your pup’s joint health. Marrow dog chew bones also support cardiovascular health, immunity and digestion.
