I live with the dogs on 9 isolated acres which are totally closed to everyone. In this way, I avoid introducing bad things from people's tires, feet, or clothes--and I can raise healthy, genetically sound, long-living babies without the introduction of harsh and harmful chemicals! They are raised "green", organic, and holistic! I'm retired, and get to spend 24/7 with the babies! I've raised dogs as pets for over 40 years--I can raise YOURS!
