Recommended Products
We know how difficult it can be for families getting ready to welcome their new furry baby into their family and knowing what supplies they might need. To make things easier, we've compiled a list of items that we use and recommend. We've organized our items using Chewy and Amazon. Please know that these are not the only places to buy these items but simply was the best way for you to see them all in the same place. We also don't require that you use these items, only making suggestions and trying to make the process as smooth as possible for our future families.
Food & Treats
In our program, we feed our dogs and puppies a balanced raw diet made from fresh, high-quality ingredients. We believe a natural, minimally processed diet helps support healthy growth, strong bodies, and overall well-being. Our dogs are primarily fed a balanced raw blend along with nutritious additions such as eggs, fish, and other whole foods.
To learn more about our raw feeding philosophy, what our dogs eat, and the companies we recommend, please visit our Raw Feeding Information Page below.🐾
Puppies are started on 80/10/10 beef blend.
The 80/10/10 ratio refers to a balanced raw diet made up of 80% muscle meat, 10% bone, and 10% organ meat. This combination closely mimics the natural prey diet dogs were designed to eat and provides essential nutrients needed for healthy growth, strong bones, and proper digestion. Starting puppies on this simple, balanced blend helps support their developing digestive systems and makes the transition to raw feeding smooth.
In addition to their balanced 80/10/10 raw meals, our puppies are also introduced to a variety of natural whole foods to support overall health and digestion. These may include raw eggs, sardines or other small oily fish, plain pumpkin, Greek yogurt, and natural chews such as duck feet. These foods provide beneficial nutrients like omega-3 fatty acids, probiotics, fiber, and collagen, which help support healthy digestion, strong joints, and developing immune systems. Introducing puppies to a variety of fresh foods early also helps build a resilient digestive system and prepares them for a well-rounded raw diet as they grow.

Dog Beds
Kuranda Dog Beds
Kuranda is the brand of dog bed that we use and absolutely love them! We have had other elevated beds that only lasted a few months because they've either been chewed up or stretched and sag. None of our Kuranda beds have been chewed and are so easy to clean. Plus, you can add a cushion or cover to make them even more attractive to have in the house.
Paw Dog Beds
Paw dog beds are also great and we have several different styles throughout our home for comfy areas! They have wet proof covers that are easily removed for washing purposes. We also use their waterproof blankets as couch covers and they work great.
X-Pens
The Lucidium Playpen is a premium, modern play space designed specifically for young puppies. It offers a safe, enclosed environment where your pup can play, rest, and explore—even when you're not there to supervise. Unlike traditional wire pens, the Lucidium’s sleek, transparent panels and sturdy frame prevent climbing and escaping, ensuring your puppy stays secure at all times.
Not only is it functional, but it also blends beautifully with your home décor—no more unsightly metal cages disrupting your space. Easy to assemble and clean, the Lucidium Playpen is perfect for puppy parents who want both safety and style in one thoughtfully designed enclosure.
