The Daily Vitamin we give our dogs -- show pugs, and rescues -- is NuVet.
We have been blessed to have avoided horrific issues many other pug breeders have dealt with. Much of this is, of course, genetics, but also our extensive health screening, research, and amazing guidance from longtime, very experienced breeders and veterinarians.

However, we also believe nutrition is an important component (and prayer).

But, back to science ... we feed a combination of only the best kibble (Origen or Farmina, sometimes Fromm) and raw or human grade food. We also use only the best supplements. If you look at the ingredients of the NuVet Plus vitamin supplement we use (see below), you'll see why we switched to this brand.

Additionally, in 
all of NuVet's years of operation they have never had a recall. NuVet products are uniquely made in the USA with natural human-grade ingredients at a FDA registered pharmaceutical lab. Each ingredient is microscopically tested for purity and potency, so you can feel confident knowing their products are the highest quality pet supplements available. Holistic vets also recommend these products. That says a LOT because so much emphasis is placed on preventative medicine with these amazing vets. NuVet is recommended by all sorts of veterinarians as well as other experts such as dog trainers, breeders, and groomers. Dog handlers with show dogs do not mess around with products. We need our show dogs to shine from the inside out. We want our rescues to shine, too! 

When you look at the ingredients of the vitamins we give all of our dogs - from young puppies just weaning, to the moms, and seniors - you will see why we choose this product. (And we have used many brands over the years, only to settle on NuVet).

Our daily cleaner for house (and we use a STEAM MOP):
Picture
Pet Safe, eco-friendly Cleaning Products (sometimes we throw kibble or treats on the floor to 'distract' when needing to slip through a door and with these eco-friendly products we know they are not toxic to our cutie pies. We use a steamer mop, too, but with so many dogs living in the house with us we need the cleaning chemicals, too. Sometimes we also use White Vinegar and also Clorox for LAUNDRY and washing dog beds and plush toys, but we ONLY mop the floors with these awesome pet-safe cleaning products. They are not super strong in scent yet they truly neutralize any odors and clean really well.) Additionally, we are supporting animal rescue when we use these products!

Picture
Treats (even our finicky pugs love these treats, especially the water buffalo, and we know the ingredients are safe) -- we try to avoid treats like Biljac or other treats you find at petstores or Target or Walmart, and we try to avoid any chews or bones not made in the US. In addition to these treats we also dehydrate chicken, chicken gizzards sliced, chicken hearts, livers, chicken paws, sirloin strips etc. when we can find time with our dehydrator. But we always look forward to our autoship of the LA's treats. We go this route over chewy as we know the quality will be consistent. We use Chewy, too, but for our Farmina or Origen Kibble (we use this plus Raw ... alternating), toys, crates, sometimes nylabones, kongs, but only Life's Abundance, or our homemade treats. 

Picture
  • Grooming (we use either our own shampoo bar that we make ourselves or this shampoo. On rare occasions, just before a dog show, we use Isle of Dogs Evening Primrose Shampoo which we buy at dog shows. We also like to use a conditioner -- either this one - because we think it really helps reduce shedding. We also use a metal comb after we wash them, and comb in the conditioner to spread it evenly ... letting it sit 5 minutes ... then we blow dry them using a hair dryer specifically made for dogs. Every day we use this conditioning spray (which we water down) or this one by Isle of Dogs just before a dog show (also watered down, plus we add some Sandlewood Vanilla fragrance to help make the judges notice them ;). We mist the coat always before brushing each pug every morning (or most mornings) with a Boar brush as it can damage a coat to brush when dry, or when very wet. Just a damp misting is ideal. For puppies we use the NuVet puppy shampoo. We prefer to dremmel nails and recommend the diamond bit. We rinse eyes with saline solution when needed and we use the ear cleaning solution of NuVet at and in between bathtime.

Jeff and Amy, the humans behind Pickwick Pugs, are longtime supporters of animal rescue through foster, rescue, fundraising, and other volunteer work.
Picture
But Pickwick Pugs ALSO raise money when they train! Aside from the pugs loving the treats we list in our store, we love the fact that all of our purchases help support animal rescue. Same thing for when we clean our house!​
Picture

When our pugs eat their treats they support animal rescue!

When we clean our pugs' bedroom, we help rescue neglected animals!

Picture
Picture
At Pickwick Pugs we use some amazing Life's Abundance products. From treats, fish oil, to our own shampoo and conditioner, or their eco-friendly pet-safe cleaning products, with every Life's Abundance purchase we help rescue neglected and unwanted animals. The non-profit arm of the company, The Dr. Jane Foundation, provides financial support to empower the noble, life-saving efforts of animal rescue groups. Every time we place an order, a contribution is made to Life's Abundance non-profit's grant fund. The bigger your order, the larger the donation! This foundation also provides emergency funding to immediately address the needs that arise from disasters such as floods and fires across the U.S.  
Not only do we support animal rescue by using these products, but our pugs actually like Life's Abundance treats. Our pugs don't break-out with the "pimples" and red spots on their face when we use their cleaners and we love that there have been no recalls on their products in the 20+ years they have been in business which is  largely due to their extensive research, testing, and quality control. Finally, we love that the food has  . . . .
  • no artificial flavors
  • no corn or corn glutens
  • no wheat or wheat gluten
Picture
Our MOST picky eater, Lilibeth, even loves the antioxidant oats and apple wellness bars (which include apples, peanut butter, honey, oatmeal, brown rice, ground flaxseed, dates, rolled oats, flaxseed oil, eggs, cranberries, and carrots.) Honestly, she never likes these "healthy" type treats from the pet stores, so we love being able to boost her immune system before dog shows and social outings. 

As soap makers ourselves, we are pretty particular about scents and ingredients, so we appreciate the amazing fragrance and quality ingredients in Life's Abundance dog shampoos and grooming products which we have used. Once we switched to their pet-friendly, eco friendly, nontoxic for pets cleaning products, we stopped seeing those occasional "pimples" irritations on some of the pugs' faces which harsher cleaners like Mr. Clean had caused. Who knew?! But since the skin is one of the largest organs, we know the switch to these cleaners is helping our pugs inside and out. These products actually clean just as well as the Lysol and Mr. Clean we used to use, if not better than and they smell great.
