Taking good care of your pets includes what you feed them – I give them a wet/dry diet with lots of freeze-dried treats to ensure they're getting a variety of nutrients. **Also just to note cats (especially boy cats) are naturally dehydrated and that can leads to health issues, so by incorporating more wet food, or just mixing in hot water + dry food & freeze dried toppers, it's a great way to get them to drink more water**

Ok, its not really a farm. BUT we have over 100 chickens and about 30 ducks. We sell eggs and pure bred Silkie's, Kiki Rikis and Bantams. These are the things that make caring for all the birds a whole lot easier.
When my sister's dog started showing his age, she went down every rabbit hole she could find on senior dog nutrition. We all joined in the hunt. What I discovered is that most mainstream dog food is not formulated with aging dogs in mind; and the difference in a senior-specific diet is visible within weeks. This list is everything she actually fed and supplement with: the foods that support joint health, digestion, and weight management in older dogs, and the supplements that fill the gaps even premium food leaves behind. If your dog is 7 years or older, this list was made for them. Every product here has been researched thoroughly and most have been used personally. Your senior dog deserves the best years of their life to also be the most comfortable.

Buck is an English bulldog, so he has issues lol.
