Before you breed your dog, she should be in excellent health and condition. Holistic health care works with nature and your pet's body to keep her in optimal health and an asset to your breeding program. The foundation of health is diet. Food is second only to air in what your dog takes into its body most often.

Cooking damages many elements in food that are vital to good health.
