1. Food and Supplements
We feed all of our dogs Life's Abundance. We feed Small & Medium breed puppy food for the first year then transition to All Life Stages food. Life's Abundance was created by a top holistic veterinarian, Dr. Jane Bicks, to be more nutrient dense and healthier for pets. This food is made in small, frequent batches from ingredients sourced in the U.S. We also love that it has never been recalled!
