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..................................................................

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.
(Heart, salmon with bone and skin, uterus, quarter leg, spleen, kidney)

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.
(Skin off Turkey Neck)
(Skin on Chicken Neck)
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.

Pups From 2017 & 2018

When you sit back and reflect on your last 2 litters, one being 6 months and the other being 19 months. Both produced off of your productions, and looking very similar to each other, from the biggest to the smallest of the 2 litters. At that point you don't acknowledge the foolishness, you just keep moving forward doing you. #NoVACAINKennels #NoVACAINBred #rawfedbullies #AmericanBully #ADBABullies #ABKCBullies #NoVACAINCertified #Legacy #bulliesofinstagram #bullieskepttight #workingamericanbullies

18 of my most used and often asked about herbs/spices.

Basil: I call this a must have for any dog owner simply because it protects the liver. Basil is anti-bacterial, anti-cancer, and it bangs free radicals. Besides the most important previously mentioned tidbits I also use basil right before and after whelping a litter because it’s great at reducing pain and inflammation. 

Black Pepper: Seek out Master “Piperine” to enhance the bioavailability of your curcumin in turmeric by 1,000 x’s lol. Black pepper’s highly active natural chemical piperine increases nutrient absorption greatly in the body, hence when using vet prescribed drugs, hold fast “CAUTION”, because of the increased risk of accidental overdose.

Catnip: Here’s why ready, stimulates appetite in a hurry and aids in digestion, by adding ½ teaspoon per pound of food hits my dogs off with iron, magnesium, manganese, potassium,vitamins A, C, and E and a few others.

Cayenne Pepper: A crazy way to give vitamins A, B6, C, E, K, fiber, and manganese to our dogs, yet so much more to say the least reduce blood cholesterol. Cayenne like many other red peppers contain capsaicin, a potent inhibitor of substance P, and also known to kill ingested bacteria by stimulating the stomach lining to secrete protective juices which act as a first line of defense.

Cilantro: Mostly used on my bitches fresh the day after whelping a litter stimulates the appetite and helps in relieving gas and indigestion.

Cinnamon: Antioxidant overload in a great way and a must use. It's anti-inflammatory, anti-cancer, regulates blood sugar, goes to war with free radicals, and protects against heart disease.

Dandelion: I recommend using the leaves which are a richer source of vitamin A than carrots, yet the entire plant can be used. Simply put the cardiovascular system, liver, teeth, and bones will love you. Dandelion’s contain vitamins, C, D, E, K, B complex, potassium, calcium, iron, thiamin, choline, lecithin, phosphorus, zinc, silicon, and riboflavin. Dry it all flower to the root and use 1 teaspoon per 25 pounds daily.

Dill: Look let me tell you the dill truth, it’s an anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antifungal, antibacterial, yet its greatest rolls are improved appetite and digestion by helping the gut process greater numbers of  nutrients from its food, instead of just passing them through the body as waste. Now I do not nor recommend the use of dill at all during pregnancy because you risk having a miscarriage.

Fennel: I use fennel for 2 reasons, the first is a detoxifier that contains vitamins A, C, niacin, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorous, potassium, zinc, and copper. Second for the benefits of increased omega-6 fatty acids and milk production, which in turn benefits the brain function and overall functioning of the now nursing puppies, but hold fast! Feeding fennel heavy can cause serious ill effects like, irregular heartbeat and trouble breathing.

Flaxseed: A must have source of omega-3’s & 6’s  fatty acids, with vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber that are in my opinion, greatly needed for cardiovascular maintenance, good skin, and the flashiness of a coat. I recommend that you ground it up fresh and use it within 3 days for best results.

Oregano: I love oregano myself, it’s crazy rich in antioxidants blowing blueberries out the water, backed with a great amount of Omega-3 fatty acids. It also holds a good amount of vitamins A, C, K, followed by iron, manganese, and fiber. Ok so besides what I’ve already mentioned oregano is simply the truth it’s highly known for being anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-parasitic, anti-viral, backed with cancer-fighting properties; on top of having the ability to soothe a upset stomachs and relieving sore muscles.

Parsley: Anti-bacterial, anti-inflammatory, and rich in antioxidants this is another personal favorite for mine. Parsley is packed with vitamins A, B,  C, K, carotene, iron, calcium, and folate, promoting kidney health by filtering out the toxins.

Peppermint: I grow peppermint in my yard for a few different reasons. To calm upset stomachs, help combat respiratory infections, soothe dry skin in winter, as well as an antiparasitic when it clicks up with ginger and garlic.

Rosemary: This smells so good when grown around the yard, it also helps to prevent mosquitoes. Besides that I use rosemary for its anti-allergic, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, and antiseptic properties hands down one of the best.

Sage: Well here we go I always pair this with oregano to make a super base. Sage is remarkably great for bone, eye, immune, and skin health, its anti-inflammatory, and highly anti-microbial. Its loaded with antioxidants, vitamins A, E, and K, trace minerals like calcium, magnesium, potassium, phosphorus, and zinc. When you throw rosemary in the mix along with oregano it intensifies the allergen fighting properties as well as being a viscous GI infection prevention fighter.

Sea Salt: HOLD FAST!!!  The provided sodium, is NECESSARY for life!!! So much counts on the very small amount of sea salt that is taken in orally. It is vital for proper adrenal gland function,  muscle contraction/expansion, and nerve stimulation. The chloride helps produce the necessary acids needed to digest protein; which in turn produce the enzymes necessary for proper brain functioning and growth. The magnesium is critical for proper nerve transmission, early bone formation, and supporting a healthy heart.

Thyme: On any given day upping the thyme thats teamed up with sage, parsley, oregano, rosemary, basil, garlic, and ginger keeps my dogs respiratory system’s and brains on point year round, but especially in the cold winter months where brain function is slightly off in extreme cold. Thyme is anti-bacterial, antiseptic, antispasmodic, anti-cancer; and has vitamin K, iron, manganese, calcium, fibre and tryptophan, phytochemicals. Thyme is also known for its ability to discourage fungus and bacteria growth.

Turmeric: Anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, helps to heal and maintain gut and liver health, improves brain function of older dogs or one who don’t seem so bright, and so much more GOLDEN PASTE!!!!!!  ¼ teaspoon for small dogs, ½ teaspoon for medium dogs and 1 teaspoon for large dogs per day, mixed into food.
