People act funny

5 week old pups eating their first

unground meal.  They did great and loved it!

These puppies are exceptionally easy, content and happy.  I have noticed their overall physical condition is exemplary - they have excellent muscle tone, lovely soft coat and noticably less smelly stool. 

Feeding your Collie/Sheltie

Our dogs have all been changed to being Raw Fed.  After much deliberation and study I have decided that this is the BEST way to feed my dogs.  This is what is best for them - for their longevity, health and growth.  I feel I am doing the best possible for my dogs in raising them as naturally as possible.  Raw Feeding is not difficult but does require an open mind.  If you are interested in feeding raw please contact me by email.  If you decide to purchase one of my puppies or dogs please understand that they are Naturally Reared and have been raised on Raw Food with minimal or no vaccination - minimal when required by law. 

Daily Diet:

My Collies get a variety of meat on a daily or weekly basis. Ther daily diet would resemble this:

Hunter - eats 1.8 pounds per day.  He would get:             

1 Duck neck, chicken breast, 3 ounces of liver or kidney

or

Chicken frame or back, with ground lamb, and 2 ounce of liver

or

Cornish game hen - whole

These are just examples.  Here is a list of all the foods my dogs have eaten and will continue to be fed.

Chicken backs          Chicken frames          Chicken Quarters          Chicken Gizzards         Chicken Hearts

Whole Chicken         Chicken Feet
