The Best "Puppy Insurance": Choosing a Healthy Puppy and Providing Proper Care

The Best "Puppy Insurance": Choosing a Healthy Puppy and Providing Proper Care

In today's society, many people rely on medical treatments to solve health problems in both puppies and humans. However, there may be a better approach. 

As someone who has raised puppies for over 40 years, I've observed that wild dogs and humans living primitive lifestyles tend to be healthier. Why? Because our dogs are exposed to products that can harm their health over time, and we often turn to pharmaceutical treatments instead of addressing the root causes.

Key Factors in Puppy Health:

  1. Diet: Feeding dogs a natural, species-appropriate diet is crucial. Commercial pet foods and treats can lead to various health issues. A diet rich in animal protein and low in plant-based ingredients is best.
  2. Prevention: Choosing a healthy puppy from a reputable breeder, selecting an appropriate breed size, and avoiding extreme physical features can prevent many health problems.
  3. Veterinary Care: Choose an experienced vet who understands the importance of nutrition and doesn't rely solely on expensive treatments.

Tips for Choosing a Healthy Puppy:

  • Buy from a professional breeder who raised the puppy and knows its history
  • Avoid brokers, puppy mills, and online scams
  • Choose a breed that is not too big, too small, too young, or has unnatural anatomy
  • Select a puppy that is large and strong enough to handle your home environment
  • Consider a genetically diverse mixed-breed puppy for better health and temperament
  • Opt for an older puppy (10-12 weeks+) to reduce health risks and save on vet costs

The Role of Nutrition: Just like in humans, a puppy's diet plays a significant role in their health. Many diseases and genetic defects are actually caused by improper nutrition and toxic ingredients in commercial pet foods and treats. Feeding a diet that closely mimics a dog's natural diet (high in animal protein, low in plant-based ingredients) can help prevent and even reverse many health issues.

The Best "Puppy Insurance": Instead of relying on expensive pet insurance and medical treatments, focus on prevention through proper diet, choosing a healthy puppy, and providing appropriate care. Educate yourself on canine nutrition and work with a knowledgeable veterinarian who understands the importance of diet in maintaining health.

By making informed decisions and prioritizing your puppy's well-being, you can help ensure a long, healthy life for your furry companion without breaking the bank on unnecessary treatments. Remember, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure!
