Puppy Health Is Our Passion

It will take a full year for your puppy to become what he or she is going to be as an adult. I'm always amazed at how puppies remind me of my own children as they were growing up. They go through an adorable newborn stage, an "it's good your so cute that you can get away with fill-in-the-blank" stage, growth stages where they're all paws and long legs, and more.   Enjoy the process of watching each stage unfold!  We've provided some fun diagrams below to help you learn more about puppy's health and well-being.

Stage 1: From Mother's Milk to Mousse

Stage 1: From Mother's Milk to Mousse

At six weeks it's time for puppy to go from mother's milk to solid food. We complete this transition by introducing Royal Canin Puppy Mousse. Anytime you get a finicky eater, get a little of this and add it to their kibble at any age. I guarantee they'll gobble everything up!

Stage 1: From Mother's Milk to Mousse

A week after we introduce puppy mousse, we add kibble!  At Evera True Cavaliers we wean to Mother and Puppy Kibble until 8 weeks old.  Then it's Fromm Gold Puppy Kibble or Royal Canin Small Breed Puppy.


A complete guide to how we prepare our kibble can be found by linking below.  You'll also find links to purchase these items without having to search through thousands of links!

How much food does puppy need when he or she arrives at your house?  


AS MUCH AS THEY WANT--SOMETIMES MORE!


Puppies are growing at a rapid rate; bones and coat and teeth are all working in tandem and this requires a lot of calories and proper nutrition.  Puppies should have a belly on them...don't worry about having a fat dog until after your furbaby is 12-18 months old.

What Can Puppy Chew On?

Shots....

Your puppy, whether from Evera or another quality, dedicated breeder should provide the first round of DPv innoculation and have wormed the puppy twice. This will be noted on your certificate of health from a board certified veterinarian.  DO NOT assume every breeder does this. Make sure your breeder provides these services and GET IT IN WRITING. If you cannot get this from your breeder, walk away. At Evera we follow Dr. Jean Dodd's vaccination protocol. You'll find it below, as well as several other pages on this website. It's THAT important that you do not fill your puppy or dog with unnecessary toxins.

Bully for you!

Details About Bully Sticks (Chews)

Bully sticks are a durable chew many dogs and pet owners love! As are No-Hide Chews by Earth Animal! They are a boredom-busting, stress-reducing treat made of 100 percent beef muscle and help support healthy teeth and gums by gently scraping dogs’ teeth as they chew.

While you may know of bully stick’s many health benefits, it is just as important to understand ways to ensure your dog enjoys them responsibly. So, do you know how to feed your dog a bully stick safely?  


Redbard Recommends:


Introducing Your Pet To Bully Sticks

Are you giving your dog a bully stick for the very first time?  When selecting a bully stick (or any chew) for the first time, it is extremely important you select the size and shape most appropriate for your dog. The size should be larger than your pet’s muzzle to prevent them from swallowing large pieces or any other potential choking risks.After selecting the proper size, treat your dog to the bully stick for five to 10 minutes. Why? Bully sticks are a high protein treat, and if your dog is not used to digesting such high amounts, they may end up with an upset stomach, diarrhea, or vomiting. Luckily, responsible pet parents can prevent all those from happening! A slow introduction to bully sticks can help lower the risk of upsetting your pups tummy and a messy situation. After a close inspection, gradually increase their chew time. We recommend feeding your pup no more than one bully stick a day.


Supervise Your Pet

This is one of the most critical sections of this blog post! Again, this is HUGE folks....please read.

When giving your pet ANY treat or chew, you, as the pet parent, must monitor them closely to ensure they’re enjoying the chew safely.

That means being in the room, watching them chow down, and listening attentively as they enjoy their bully stick. While bully sticks are durable, eventually your chewer may power through, breaking off small pieces.

Keep in mind bully sticks are not intended to be swallowed in large pieces. If your dog chews off a chunk that is too big, they could choke or suffer from gastrointestinal blockage. Being in the room with your pet will allow you plenty of time to grab the broken-off piece, avoiding this potential health risk.

Remember, in most cases, chews should be larger than your dog’s mouth. Unfortunately, the simple fact is no natural treat or chew can guarantee your pet’s safety. That is why we believes it’s important to educate pet parents on supervising their pets to decrease the inherent risks that come with consuming any natural animal body part.


And as a bonus, supervision can show you which chews and treats your dog likes the most! Some dogs enjoy our bully braids more, for example, over our traditional straight bullies.

To help you pick the perfect chew for your dog, it always helps to understand their individual chew style. 


Frequently Asked Questions

About Bully Sticks

How do I know when to take away my dog’s bully stick?

Take the bully stick away and discard it once it can be swallowed whole (about 2.5- 3 inches in most cases). Some pet owners use vice grips or toys to ensure their pet doesn’t chew past a certain point.


How should I store my dog’s bully stick for the next chew time?

In between treating, to dry the bully stick either let it air dry or use a towel. Then, store the bully stick in a cool, dry place where your pet can’t reach, like a high cabinet or pantry shelf. We do not recommend refrigeration as the moisture could potentially attract bacteria. Be sure to wash your hands after handling your pet’s bully stick.  


Where can I buy bully sticks for my pup?

You can find bully sticks at boutique pet stores, most major chains, chewy.com, or from manufacturers such as www.Redbarn.com.



Puppy vaccination Protocol

As Advised by Dr. Jean Dodds

Dr. Jean Dodds – Dog Vaccine Protocol

The following vaccine protocol is offered for those dogs where minimal vaccinations are advisable or desirable. The schedule is one I recommend and should not be interpreted to mean that other protocols recommended by a veterinarian would be less satisfactory. It’s a matter of professional judgment and choice.

9 – 10 weeks of age
Distemper + Parvovirus, MLV
e.g. Merck Nobivac (Intervet Progard) Puppy DPV

14 – 15 weeks of age
Distemper + Parvovirus, MLV

18 weeks of age
Parvovirus only, MLV
Note: New research states that last puppy parvovirus vaccine should be at 18 weeks old.

20 weeks or older, if allowable by law
Rabies – give 3-4 weeks apart from other vaccines
Mercury-free (thimerosol-free, TF)

1 year old
Distemper + Parvovirus, MLV
This is an optional booster or titer. If the client intends not to booster after this optional booster or intends to retest titers in another three years, this optional booster at puberty is wise.

1 year old
Rabies – give 3-4 weeks apart from other vaccines
3-year product if allowable by law; mercury-free (TF)

Perform vaccine antibody titers for distemper and parvovirus every three years thereafter, or more often, if desired. Vaccinate for rabies virus according to the law, except where circumstances indicate that a written waiver needs to be obtained from the primary care veterinarian. In that case, a rabies antibody titer can also be performed to accompany the waiver request. Visit The Rabies Challenge Fund for more information.

Carrot Snuffle Mat

I had the new carrot snuffle mat delivered this week to test its appeal and durability.  I could be happier with this purchase.  For less than $30, this toy is providing hours of fun for our dogs—young and old.  I put one treat below each carrot, but varied the flavors to provide extra stimulation.   I definitely recommend this interactive toy from Fookens. A link is included here.  Disclaime:  We make a few pennies if you purchase through this Amazon Associate link.
