Very informative.

RAW vs. GENTLY COOKED — THE NUTRIENT DEBATE 🍖💨

In the haute cuisine of pet food, two philosophies duel:
🥩 Raw — Nature’s untouched masterpiece. Pristine proteins, live enzymes, and ancestral nutrition in its purest form. A celebration of instinct… when impeccably sourced.
💨 Gently Cooked — Steamed with care, preserving rich fats, vibrant antioxidants, and nourishing warmth. A safer, softly cooked symphony… with only a whisper of nutrient trade-off.

WHICH BOWL WILL YOU CHOOSE? 🥣
For the discerning pet parent, every meal is an art form of health and longevity.

Avoid over vaccination with a titer test!

It still makes me upset when I hear of yet another dog who is going in for their "yearly vaccines". But then I wonder - are people aware of titers? 🩸

Vaccine antibody titer tests are an AMAZING tool (a simple blood test) that your veterinarian can use to measure the level of antibodies in your dog's bloodstream for specific diseases, such as distemper, parvovirus, or rabies.

By measuring the antibodies, we are able to see if we in fact do need to re-vaccinate, and therefore reduce the risk of over-vaccinating our dogs.

PS: Studies have shown that parvo and distemper have a minimum duration of immunity of 7 years by challenge!
