Missy is exhibiting calm behavior

Sometimes young dogs are too exuberant and inadvertently very rude to older dogs by jumping on them and being a nuisance. It is up to the older dogs to put them in their place, much like an adult would not let an 8 yr old child bang on them with a stick. Missy has come a long way in controlling her exuberant puppy behavior with us and with our dogs.

In addition I believe the diet we feed our dogs contributes to their calm and well balanced behavior. Missy is eating Natures Logic Raw dog food. We feed both the chicken and beef. Here are the ingredients for the chicken:
INGREDIENTS: Chicken, Chicken Liver, Chicken Heart, Pumpkin Seed, Montmorillonite Clay, Cottage Cheese, Egg Shell Meal, Whole Eggs, Cod Liver Oil, Parsley, Blueberry Powder, Suncured Alfalfa Meal, Cranberry Powder, Almond Powder, Tomato Powder , Apricot Powder, Artichoke Powder, Avocado Powder, Spinach Powder, Apple Powder, Broccoli Powder, Carrot Powder, Pumpkin Powder, Kelp, Chicory Root, Rosemary

And here are the ingredients for the beef:
INGREDIENTS: Beef, Beef Heart, Beef Liver, Beef Kidney, Pumpkin Seed, Montmorillonite Clay, Cottage Cheese, Egg Shell Meal, Whole Eggs, Cod Liver Oil, Parsley, Blueberry Powder, Suncured Alfalfa Meal, Cranberry Powder, Almond Powder, Tomato Powder , Apricot Powder, Artichoke Powder, Avocado Powder, Spinach Powder, Apple Powder, Broccoli Powder, Carrot Powder, Pumpkin Powder, Kelp, Chicory Root, Rosemary

As you can see she isn't getting chemicals, food dye, sugars (corn syrup) or fillers. Only foods that are good for her. Any of the above can cause a dog to act like a child strung out on chemicals or sugar, in other words an out of control dog.

In terms of treats we look for the most natural we can find. We often use ZiwiPeak as they are an airdried whole food treat from New Zealand. No artificial preservatives, no colors, no salt or sugar, and no fillers or grains.

Every day the dogs get something to chew on. It is either a frozen raw turkey neck, frozen raw chicken neck, a chew flip or a bully stick. All dogs love to chew and its important to meet this need.
