    "Wow, I've never heard that! Is there something in kibble that attracts fleas?"

    There are many things in kibble that are nothing more then fillers and of no nutritional use. Grains being the main thing. All of the nutrients in kibble are in synthetic form. That is why there is a list of vitamins and minerals listed in the ingredients. Those are not added for any other reason then if they weren't put there in synthetic form, they would simply not exist. so just imagine if all you ever ate was potato chips and got all the rest of your essentials in a bottle of vitamins. Sure you could live this way and your hair might even be shiny but would you truly be as healthy as you would be if you were getting all of your nutrients from fresh whole foods?
    Total cereal is a 'complete' meal. How healthy do you think you would be/feel if you ate that and that alone 3 times a day for the next 10 to 12 years?
    So add to that all the chemicals that are put in and on our dogs in the name of prevention. Essentially treating them for things they do not have. Add to that Multiple vaccinations that assault the immune system and are given annually in most cases when it has been proven that the core vaccines last for 7 years. Ask yourself..... Why are you not getting your baby shots every year for the rest of your life? A persons system and a dogs system were designed much better then anyone gives them credit for otherwise extinction would have occurred long ago.
    The bottom line is that the better the food you put in your dog, the healthier he will be. The least amount of chemicals that are put on or in a dog, the healthier he will be. Critters like Fleas and ticks are not interested in dogs that are truly healthy.
    We have a VERY limited vaccine protocol for our dogs. One parvo shot at 12 weeks and one distemper at 14 weeks and nothing else the rest of their lives aside from rabies because it is the law. We use the best sources of food, all raw and filled with nutrients in natural form. We use an all natural heart worm prevention so we are not putting drugs or chemicals in or on our dogs. The results have been amazing!

    Do you health test your dogs for hips, elbows, patellas, thyroid, etc. ?

    Are you interested in one of my pups or just looking for a debate? I am not much into playing games online. I don't know any Dane breeders who test patellas and very few do elbows. I do what I feel is necessary.
    no i was just curious

    Welcome! Nice looking dogs!
    I am owned by two German Shepherd rescues Sierra & Buddy.
    I have to say... In My Opinion the picture of your dog eating the pig was disturbing.
    I feed kibble. (Obviously... )

    Heh, I'm late on this but... WELCOME!

    Danes make the top 10 list of my favourite breeds. I'd love to own one some day.

    I'm coming late to this thread- but welcome! The dane in your signature is just stunning!

    ETA: I'm a bit disappointed to read that I'm not really doing anything for my two by giving them carrots as treats....but they enjoy crunching on them and they're both in good health, so oh well.

    Thank you Wolf_Q!
