I got too busy working and didn’t take any pictures of my truly finished work haha, but it’s been a busy few days! I went through over 100 eggs, 20 pounds of ground beef, 4 gallons of goats milk and lots of other ingredients. You can see a bunch of the shells and eggs piled up from today (some things I put a whole egg in, including the shell, some just the yolks, etc.… So I cooked up the whites to add to the dog food as a topper). I always like taking a picture when I’m all done because it is just wild to see how many freezer bags and containers of things we end up with! However, the dogs are going to be very happy as they are all stocked up on their favorites. I haven’t started my sweet potato and chicken mash that I make the mama dogs, but I am headed to Spokane for a volleyball tournament and that is on the agenda for Sunday! ♥️

Hi all!

Whew. We’ve been going back-and-forth with Facebook for the last number of weeks because every once in a while, their automated bots flag our page and wrongfully want to take it down because of the pet content. 🤦‍♀️

We finally got it straightened out and are looking forward to regularly posting again! In the meanwhile, enjoy this adorable pic of Maka’s one and only girl, that hopefully we will be keeping! 💜
We are all very much in love so far, but trying to not get too excited until we see what she looks like when she’s a little older, and we temperament test her!

Hi friends!  Please share, and they would greatly appreciate any financial support if possible.  ♥️

Meet Rainier! Kitty #1 out of 4 total that help socialize your puppies before they go home. ♥️

We have two Maine C**n sisters(that we call the toddlers because they are mischievous little rats 🐀 most days😆), and two plain ol’ domestic house kitties that are sisters too.

They are so good for our puppies in numerous ways.

They teach them manners and boundaries with other animals and they socialize then so well, in terms of getting familiar with kitties. Especially since all of our kitties are the brave little bosses of the house.😆

As you can see though, they are bed hogs and are very reluctant to let one of the Goldens take their place😏🫣🤣

It is a dreaaaary FridYAY here on our farm. Washington tricked us again, we sure thought spring was coming. 😆

Drop your fave pic of your Golden in the FB comments to cheer up everyone and bring out some Golden sun! ☀️ (

Better yet, whatever pic gets the most likes, I’ll Venmo you $20 for your Saturday morning coffee(enough for a pup cup for your bestie too)! 😍

I’ll tag a winner after midnight! ♥️

“All our dogs are genetically cleared”
“The parents are health tested”
“Both parents have great hips”
“We prioritize genetic health”

Have you ever seen a statement like that from a breeder?

What do they really mean though? Some breeders will take advantage of the gray area those statements create, and also take advantage of customers that don’t know to ask more questions.

The Orthopedic Foundation of America is where most US dogs’ health testing records are contained. Searching by breed on their website, you will find basic core health screening recommendations.

This list represents the core health screenings responsible breeders should complete before breeding.

Breeders should also complete a DNA genetic swab through a resource like Embark, UC Davis, or Pawprint, among others, to test for any known genes. It is common for DNA results to not show on a dog’s specific OFA page, however, the breeder should be able to provide the results for you.

You can go to OFA.org and search by a dog’s registered name, or registration number. The OFA also shows you a vertical pedigree with health testing so you can consider health in past generations.

When a breeder submits information to the OFA, there is an option on the form where they can choose to release abnormal results to the public or not. If a breeder decides to not release abnormal results, you have no way of knowing that, and an ethical breeder should always release all results.

Red Flags 🚩

🚩 If you search a dog and it has every health clearance except one, especially an important one like elbows or hips. This always makes me question if the breeder chose to not publish a negative result.

🚩 If a breeder will not give you the link to a dog’s OFA profile, or the dog’s registered name when you ask.

🚩 If something does not match up, such as the DOB on the OFA being very different from what the breeder tells you.

Knowing how to search the OFA, and what core tests should be completed before breeding, is a huge step toward verifying if a breeder is one you want to work with.

Have you ever looked up a dog on OFA before?
