I have a new friend

[Jeff]

I've been feeding Cedar twice a day, along with Harley. Cedar's food was half puppy food and half what Harley eats, now that he is 6 months, we switched him to a third puppy food 2/3s the adult food.

I'm waiting until cedar is over a year old. I want as much testosterone as possible there to build muscle and size especially to try and prevent things like hip issues later in life. We have been feeding the same foods to our dogs for many years, Sawyer was the first to die at less than 12 years old. The aussiies lived to 16 and 17.

We've been feeding twice a day, he's eating more than the pair of old dogs were. He's also way more active. He heard the coyotes a couple of nights in a row over the weekend, and had to let everyone know. He went to play at some friends the other day, first smile since the stroke, they do the big work .

Great looking pup. I fed Chief the puppy food until he was almost a year old, then switched to adult. Don't know if that was the right thing to do or not. Had someone suggest about getting him fixed. I still think of him being in his teenage years and I feel he is a little young to get fixed. Open to advice from those that know more than me. He also is about as friendly of this breed that I have ever seen and part of me would like to get up with another heeler owner and get some pups out of him. See if the traits are passed on.
