ITS REALLY 2022

Man its been a long time, and God's been good. My Queen and I now have a beautiful Princess to round out the family with our Prince. My pack is smaller yet, stronger than it ever has been. No litters on the ground but, I'm always thinking and looking at the future. Yea I still be looking in on a select few who have stayed true to themselves and the dogs, without a doubt. Many still refer a lot of people to me, although...........

For a long time I've been thinking, why do I deal with the people who come with these animals, while getting mad often. The wanting to say, "forget it all" has been a consistent battle from within, yet I remain here for the few. Over the years many have come and gone, some leaving with gifts while others stealing a little, only to rob others from the start.  As many wished my downfall while laughing at my loses, I continue to defy the odds.

The main reason I'm still here doing me is because, I did it my way; while staying true to myself. I didn't get into dogs to be liked by others, or to become famous nor rich. I didn't get into dogs to befriend people and make enemies with their enemies, only to become friends with they enemy and foe to thy friend. That's the strange things many do in these dogs. I got into dogs because I've loved canines and wanted to share the knowledge I've gained through the years yet, I'm not sure that's still the case. 

How can I help, when many only want to battle senseless facts that aren't true nor on the topics at hand. How can you help, when you've given advice only for it to be tossed out the window. How can you help, when those you try to help are already blinded by those who are blind themselves. How can you help when you truthfully tell them that you don't consider particular things in the equation, only for them to harp on the things not considered. How can you help, when the confused choose to listen to the fledgling and not the seasoned.

With questioning and knowing all of this, what can I do? I still see the call for information by people, but is it worth my time to share with these people. I've talked with a few about getting together ourselves, privately to talk shop. I've worked on the book over and over, yet can't see the urgency of releasing any of it. Lives on social media have become sparse, and the tube's once in a blue moon. What should I do?

What I know is, no matter what I'll always be NoVACAIN Kennels. I'll always keep true to my word and to what my original vision continues to be. No matter how disappointed I become with the masses, I will always be there for the few who seek the raw uncut truth. How can I abandoned those that truly have a hunger in doing it right. I mean some truly foresee the tears because they have seen my tears through the passion I have for my animals. These same few also know, that one day they to will feel the same hurts and joys, as they begin to develop those experiences through the years.

I've learned many will listen not once but twice, only to turnaround and impersonate you, while dangerously sharing information they haven't experienced completely incorrect. After doing so these same individuals who haven't lived the knowledge that they half halfheartedly shared are blamed for the downfall of someones animal. So the impostors immediately deflects to the one who knows the truth. Only to cast the masses blame from the impostor to the unaware one who lived the truth.

I don't know what good will come from this, but hey I'm still standing. And although I'm standing, these eyes are tired, for they have seen so much in this short time. And maybe one day we'll sit, and while we sit I close my eyes to tell you of a journey. A journey of a kid whose first true best friend was a dog he didn't own. And how that one dog unimaginably set him up to become..................................................................  

WE STILL HERE......

🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫 Started Scattered Bred, Now I'm Here I bred everything but Ragnar, my bitches gave me the consistency. You looking at generation 2 part 2, as well as generation 3. Yea yea yea many have more dogs bred, yet can't pick they own dogs out of a line up. Don't need a ton of offspring to prove what I say, ya dig..........

My Pack II.

My Pack I.

Still Focused

You'll never understand the true size of my animals without seeing them in person. Ragnar is big and Apache is short and compact both solid animals. But boy is it a major difference in size. When looking at the past 2 litter they are averaging in height around 18 inches to the withers, with the exception of 2 males Ronin and Achellies around 19 inches to the withers maturing closer toward the 20 inch mark, bigger than their sire, and 3 others Apache, Queen, and Lil Bay on the shorter end that will mature around 17 inches. Over all the pups look very very similar as they should, while being some beast in their own right, as it was bred into them. I'm truly pleased with what we have accomplished thus far and can see how we'll be doing in the future already. I'm about to lock some things down and best believe if you salty now, prepare to be in the dead sea, so take some water with you. Oh yea I rarely pull my females out when showing the animals, these bitches are sacred to me.

The Doubting Concern

Just a thought......

(Drumsticks)

There are many myths about feeding a Natural diet that will have you doubting every aspect of it. Honestly from the concerns of nutritional requirements not being met, or the fear of an overabundance of germs or bacteria becoming present, to the biggest one of them all; that dogs can not eat bones, should all simply be done with. The overwhelming proof from breeders whose animals have begun to live longer, while becoming less susceptible to ailments and disease, and overall simply a stronger healthier more vibrant animals should be the reason all veterinarians should start to recommend the switch to a Natural Diet. Although that is a big wish, that all veterinarians would recommend a natural diet, many have seen the light by way of us breeders who are steadfast with feeding our animals appropriately. Yet it is truly on us breeders to apply the knowledge we gain, while truthfully documenting the results, in order to inform our veterinarian of our findings with feeding a natural diet backed with straight facts.

When it comes to feeding a natural diet, providing your animal with the essential nutrients required to thrive are more easily met than one may think. Many years ago and still today they have classified the canid species as carnivores, and that simply means one who feeds on flesh. Today we have the advantage over those who came before us because we have the ability to provide more and pretty much shop world wide. Researching and connecting people locally and internationally using resources that they may have never known about. While we remember the knowledge they share with us on what and how vegetables, fruit, herbs, spices, and roots that are extremely beneficial to the health of all mammals. All of this makes it possible for me to say “meeting your animal's nutritional requirements are more easily met than you may think”. The first proof of nutritional requirements being met, is the most sought after relief from skin allergies, which is why most people consider making the switch to a natural diet anyways.

When it comes down to the consumption of bone by our animals we have to take a couple things into consideration. First your dog should never be given cooked bones. Cooked bones splinter and are extremely dangerous for the animal from nose to tail, becoming hard little spears because of the pressure under high cooking temperatures. Instead your animal should be provided with the naturally, uncooked, softer, digestible, non splintering, highly nutritious bone. And second, you should never make your animals weekly diet more than 50% to 60% (for young pups) max bone consumption. Feeding a stupid high bone diet daily thought out the week turning into a month, can cause an unsightly blockage in the intestine, which will require expensive surgery to correct, likely removing some intestine as well. My simple rule is, “never add extra bone without good reason. Yet it must be a skinless birds neck if needed, because the meat to bone ratio is already correct”.

(A blend with rabbit, duck, and beef)

Now when we think about germs and bacteria, the rules are the same rules that we apply for our own raw food handling. Just as you would wash your hands, your dishes, your counters and so on with a disinfectant, that same exact thing applies to your naturally fed animals. Wash their bowls and wipe down their feeding area with some form of disinfectant daily. Now if your true concern is the animal getting salmonella or e coli; the canid species has an extremely acidic guts which helps prevent bacteria from colonizing. This acidic gut united with enzymes in their saliva are known to have antibacterial properties, yet this makes it possible for their higher bacteria tolerance than you or I.  So in other words, it’s highly unlikely that your animal will get sick from a natural diet, unless they are already ill or their immune system has already been compromised. I often tell people, “ practice good hygiene and use your common sense, simply no spoiled, rotten, or molded meats or produce.

Welcome To 20/20

Just a thought...........Just a Thought.............

When we think about feeding a natural diet, and how it heals the body, we must also look at what I call prevention. If the goal of a natural diet is to help bring forth better or the best health out of our animals, we should also be looking at the long term effects of feed. How is the feed we’re providing our animals, actually helping or is it harming them in the long run. I strongly believe that at least 85% of all serious health issues are directly the results of how and what we are feeding the animal. These issues are so vast that we are seriously talking about from skin issues all the way to cancers, which are in my opinion diet related.

What makes me say its diet related, look into how animal feed is processed and what has to be put back into it, just to be press out into a pellet to be considered safe and “nutritionally appropriate” for animal consumption. It’s said, “the number one ingredient is meat”, meaning “meat” is the most used ingredient in the bag. Then it’s followed by a lot of plant based material, with vitamins, minerals, and at least one preservative added back in to “lock in freshness”. To sum it up, all of these ingredients have been destroyed by killing the natural nutrients during cooking, hence the reason things have to be added back to make it “complete”. Enough said!

(Early Spring 2011)

All of this weakens the immune system because we are simply feeding it crap. Over processed food with added ingredients, which require the animals body to over work, just to process the food for viable nutrients, hence why you have to feed so much and why they poop so much. Just look at it, the majority of bad health problems stem from a compromised immune system like skin, gut, and so on. My goal has been and will remain to be, how can I feed my animals today to prevent a health issue tomorrow, and knowing all that goes into making kibble the first thing I can do is make the switch, so my animal can benefit from the natural nutrients provided in its whole unaltered form.

The next thing is essentially rebuilding a broken and damaged body, by incorporating the right balance of nutrients daily building into a lifetime. Providing the animal with a vast abundance of whole nutrients over time will begin to manifest. 1. bodies that are more resilient to illness and disease, supporting the fact that the immune system is now working at its optimal peak throughout the animal, after successfully going through detox. 2. offspring who display better brain function, mobility, and overall better vitality than its ancestors. 3. The unsurprising gain of longevity accompanied by durability, granting our beloved animals a puppy like mind and vigorous zest for life well into the senior years, just to mention a few.

(King Cain in the fall of 2014)

All of this can only become possible when we begin to look exactly at, how, what, and why we are feeding the choices we’ve made for the animal. By incorporating the right foods today, that destroy, extend, fight, prevent, and yet so much more, to overall help build a stronger, illness, and disease free animals, why not start today, to prevent tomorrow?

Let's Go To Work

We late yet, we on the way to work.

Building a strong bond with this pack.

It's been a very long time since I've had to fully train young animals. 

I have to give it the them though, they've all done extremely well so far.

A little tightening up for the old dog, he's use to Meesha keeping him in line.

He now realizes that he must check himself, and stay on task.

Could It Be The Young Bull?

See I have a problem and the problem is, is my lead dog still very young. I bred this lil red male that I'm still not 100% convinced that he will be something great, although he has shown a lot that I've just brushed to the side. His natural ability to keep visual and make eye contact no matter the distance between the 2 is like no other. His 3 year old father in my opinion has/was earning that lead position amongst the pack because of the relationship between him and the Late Great Meesha, yet that little red dog mimicked her every move in the past and often makes me think of her daily. I've also recalled me saying not long ago that I wanted to run the little red dog with Meesha to see if he can handle the distance because he's been showing me a lil something on his own. It's a little difficult to think about but today when calling out and flashing random hand signals and commands, the little red dog hit 80% of them compared to the others including his fathers 50%. It's only a few dogs that I've owned and bred that have responded with very very little work and a very young age like this, and they've all been great animals in the end. Considering this and a lot more has made me really question if I've been looking at the wrong animal as a lead dog. His father plays a respectable 2nd/3rd dog, but hasn't really satisfied me as of today with stepping into a lead position. Man its been a long time since I've had to find a lead dog, only thing left to do is run this little red dog through some test and see. If he's it the pack will respect it and the rest shall fall in line, cause Ragnar is truly looking for someone else to run the lead. WHAT DO YOU THINK????????

Sadness Hits The Camp
