wanting to get an Aussie from CMA Aussies,

your Aussie puppy healthy and happy.

** Food **
Selecting the best food
for your puppy can be a challenge.
Deciphering what the food manufacturer wants you to believe
and what truly is, can get a little frustrating.
There are many good foods
out there. Diamond, Blue Buffalo & Taste of the Wild
are some foods I like. You need to learn how to
read food ingredients,
and know what to stay away from. You have to be
realistic in what you can afford
and where you will be buying your dog food. I buy at
the feed store nearby
so I am limited to my selection. But I like it being
close by, and I have a relationship
with that store if I need them to order me something
special.
Below are some links to websites that will help you know
what is in your dog's food:

Below is a
MUST WATCH
slide show. I guarantee you will learn something.
Did you know that feeding raw eggs, besides possibly giving
your dog Salmonella or E.coli,
can also cause a poor coat and skin allergies?
There is so much
good information, please don't even ask to buy a pup from me
if you
haven't watched this.

And anonther
MUST
is to sign up for dog food recall alerts. They are
amazing at sending emails out as soon as they know of a
recall. And once the puppy chew bones I "just"
bought for the puppies had been recalled. Thank
goodness I recieved the emails about them.
Sign up for recall alerts via email!!
