We are very firm believers that most dogs live very well within a pack structure by nature and are well adjusted and confident with themselves by the rules set forth within a pack environment.

Our dogs eat together side by side, sleep together throughout our house, and play together. They accompany us in our daily lives and routines and are an interactive and intricate part of our lives here.
