Play time. Please note that there are three entire males happily playing together, Lowick, Bobby and Bonnard ( who is visiting for a few days). No fighting or dominance.

Exercise off lead is very important for mental and physical health of the dogs and their owners on more levels then one 🤣. Cidaq kennels in their entirety running in the field at the back of our road.

A few photos of our recent puppies in their new homes. I am so proud of them! Looks like they all fitted right in their new families and continue to give love and lots of fun to their parents.

Puppies are going home today. Bittersweet moment for me as I am going to miss little Kevin, Pebbles and Winston. I know that they are going to make their new parents very happy and this is a wonderful reward for me for all the hard work raising healthy and well adjusted puppies.

Hopefully this treatment might be available in Australia soon!

Small breed dogs — including dachshunds and French bulldogs — have a high risk of developing a herniated disc in their middle back, which can lead to partial or complete paralysis in the hindlegs. Until recently, the only treatment for dogs that do not respond to rest and therapy has been a costly decompressive surgery that involves removing the herniated disc.

Now, thanks to a new treatment developed by Texas A&M University professor Dr. Nick Jeffery, more dog owners will be able to afford treatment for herniated discs, which affects hundreds of thousands of dogs in the United States alone.

Puppies had a tiring day and fell asleep on the couch under watchful eye of Mia.

Puppies play time before breakfast and after being crated for an hour in preparation for their move to their homes next week. They spent an hour in individual crates today almost without complaint 😊

Following today’s conversation about kibble and what is wrong with it…

Don’t let anyone convince you that dry kibble is safer to feed your pet over minimally processed pet food.

In the past 5 years, over 69 million pounds of pet food have been recalled. The leading cause was mold contamination (aflatoxins), accounting for 60 million pounds, all from ultra-processed kibble.

The second most common reason was bacterial contamination. 8 million pounds were recalled due to harmful bacteria like Salmonella and Listeria. Kibble made up 97.7% of these recalls.

Refrigerated cooked foods accounted for 1.4%

Raw pet food was even lower, at just 0.7%

When it comes to safety, the data is clear: minimally processed pet food isn’t the risk—ultra-processed kibble is.

All puppies should be crate trained! Not only it provides a safe place for them to be but also helps with toilet training because puppies will avoid soiling their bed! Please watch this video

How Long Do Dog Vaccines Last?

You don’t have to vaccinate your dog every year—only if you want insurance coverage for those diseases.

Core vaccines (like distemper & parvo) can last 6+ years, with many dogs still protected after 7 years. Even the WSAVA advises testing immunity (via antibody titres) rather than blindly revaccinating.

Most pet insurance policies just won’t cover that disease if you skip boosters—not all claims. Check your policy to be sure.
