Re: [iPad] OT- chemical free diet in response to Jim

 

They eat only grass fed proteins (duck, beef, bison, venison, etc...) in fact I know the people who own the cattle in upstate NY and have been there-

Do they also use no antibiotics in the animal feed?
Are the feed animals (and the grains they eat) pesticide-free?

[Since we use no pesticides or fertilizers on our 6 acre front field, we are able to have a local organic dairy take the hay 3-4 times per year, which they feed to their high-quality cattle, which then turns into some *really* good ice cream.]

While cats are obligatory carnivores -- they *require* meat -- dogs are not, and can get along quite well on a very mixed diet. Ours have been growing into their teens (a large breed, I should point out -- 70-100 pounds, 27-31" at the shoulder) and keeping healthy for the 36 years that we've been breeding them now.


I bake all their treats. (bison chips, peanut butter (that I make myself in a vita mix) and carrot bones-- doggie muffins :-)

Very good (probably) -- when you check packaging on prepared doggie treats, it is discouraging to see how many are made in China, which I WILL not trust, not since their toxicity scandals of recent years.

I use no cleaning supplies with chemicals...

Yes, you do. Everything has/is chemicals.

I make many of them myself using essential oils from Young Living and buy others in Whole Foods.

Those "essential oils" are chemicals, and some essential oils are highly toxic. Hopefully not the ones you choose.

I provide a life with as few chemicals as possible and believe it is better for them and us humans as well.

If you think that, you do not understand chemistry.
