The pups are almost six weeks – that means a trip to the vet for their health check. We spend a good deal of time with our vet – with all our animals health is paramount to us! We have a wonderful vet here nearby that does small and large animals – great for the goats, cows, & Pigs too! We also utilize a large reproductive specialist in Grand Rapids who does our OFA certifications and a vet in Rockford for Penn Hip and any rehab workouts. We are grateful to each of these talented and dedicated individuals who help us care for our Best Friends!
Tomorrow we will also have an ultrasound done to confirm if Star is pregnant – by doing an ultrasound we are able to better meet the needs of our momma dogs in the last 3-4 weeks of the pregnancy with care and nutritional supplements.
Regular Vet care is important and we provide new puppy owners with guidelines on proper vet care. We know not everyone knows and understands what a growing puppy needs and feel it is our responsibility as a breeder to provide new owners with the information they need to make good health choices for the life of their pets.
We will blog more about vet care in the near future
