Cindy, I am currently feeding Honest Kitchen?to my adult dogs and recently contacted the company to ask what age I could begin feeding our puppies. I believe the gal I talked to was Kat and she suggested that I ask another breeder that was using the products with their...

Hi Cindy, My miniature schnauzer delivered 9 puppies on Monday. She was very large before giving birth, so we anticipated a large litter and purchased puppy formula from our Vet. After delivery we were very concerned about this being such a large litter, and wondering i...
I have a question, I had set up a plan to breed my dog with another Chihuahua male her size. I brought him to our home and they tied up at least 4 times I know of. I brought him home yesterday and this morning I let her out to go potty and one of our neighbors dogs tied up...
Dear Mr. Frawley, I'm not sure how to start this email so I will just dive in. I was in search of info on newborn bottle feeding and came across your PDF. Now please don't shoot me! I have an 11 year old Boxer/Pit mix who has mammary tumors and several other small tumor...
I have a registered walker. She is currently in her first week of her second or third heat. I left her in a pen at my dad's when I left for a few days. Somehow his pit and lab mix got to her. I was wondering if my purebred (female) breeds with a non-purebred (male), will I...

Hi Cindy, I remember seeing somewhere on your site that when your dogs are fed it's picked up after a certain amount of time. The time I can't remember, 20 minutes to an hour, I think. My question was what is the benefit of this??My German Shepherd never eats all of her...
I just found out that my dog that I bred a week ago has fleas and the other animals in our house. What can I use on her to get rid of the fleas and not hurt the puppies she might be carrying?
