The Ultimate High-Vibe Puppy Care Guide

Welcome to the world of holistic pet care—a natural, intuitive way to raise a healthy, happy, and high-vibe puppy! If you’ve chosen to care for your new puppy naturally, you’re already on the path to creating a strong, disease-resistant, and vibrant companion for life.

This guide will walk you through the 12 key principles of holistic puppy care, focusing on species-appropriate nutrition, immune support, and natural alternatives to conventional veterinary approaches.

12 Keys to Raising a Healthy, Holistic Puppy

1. Species-Appropriate Diet: The Raw Truth

Puppies thrive on raw, fresh, species appropriate—not processed kibble! A raw, prey-model diet provides the essential nutrients dogs need for strong immunity, optimal digestion, and disease resistance.

Avoid: Processed kibble, grains, fillers, and synthetic additives.
Try: Raw meat, bone, organ meats, and high-quality natural supplements.

2. Pure, Clean Water = A Thriving Puppy

Tap water is loaded with toxins like chlorine and fluoride, which can harm your pup’s health. Filtered or distilled water is best.

Pro Tip: Add colloidal silver to water to help boost immunity and keep teeth clean!

3. Grooming & Nail Care: A Vital Ritual

Regular grooming is more than just keeping your pup clean—it’s about bonding and health maintenance.

 Check for fleas, ticks, and skin conditions
 Use natural, chemical-free shampoos
 Trim nails regularly to prevent joint issues

Avoid: Toxic flea shampoos & commercial grooming products.
Try: Colloidal Silver Shampoo for Pets or DIY herbal blends.

4. Building Natural Immunity

Forget over-vaccination—strong immunity starts with a healthy gut and balanced energy.

Raw diet = strong immune response
Probiotics & digestive enzymes keep gut flora balanced
Colloidal silver as a daily immune booster

Pro Tip: Puppies benefit from early exposure to natural pathogens to strengthen their immune system.

5. Vaccines & Socialization: A Balanced Approach

Most vets push excessive vaccines, but research shows this can lead to chronic illness, allergies, and weakened immunity.

Consider homeopathic nosodes 
Titer tests instead of unnecessary booster shots
Socialize early! Safely expose your pup to people, places, and experiences to prevent fear-based behaviors. With short few minute visits to dog parks, pet stores or meeting other puppies that have been vaccinated to start the immune system building. Slowly increase time spent with other puppies to continue to socialize and increase immunity. 

Pro Tip: A well-socialized puppy = a confident, happy adult dog! (Look into Puppy Culture) 

6. Sunshine & Earth Connection 

Sunshine isn’t just for fun—it’s vital for vitamin D absorption and overall well-being!

 Let your puppy sunbathe daily
Walk barefoot with them for grounding benefits
 Play in nature—the best holistic medicine!

7. Safe & Natural Flea & Parasite Control

Flea meds = chemical pesticides that stress your pup’s liver & nervous system. There are better ways!

FleasGone Tag (chemical-free repellent)
Diatomaceous Earth (DE) as a natural parasite control
Essential oils (diluted) for fleas & ticks
DeWorming - Raw fed, HighVibe puppies are not a prone to an overload of parasites. Use our natural wormer as needed if there is a worm count. No reason to use a wormer routinely unless there is evidence of worms.  If you are concerned get a fecal test through your holistic vet. 

Pro Tip: Fleas thrive on sugar-rich blood—raw-fed dogs naturally repel them!

8. Exercise & Pack Mentality

Dogs are pack animals, and puppies thrive when they feel included & stimulated.

 Daily walks, hikes, and car rides build confidence
 Keep your pup with you indoors—they need your energy
Mental stimulation is just as important as physical activity

Pro Tip: Avoid dog parks until your puppy’s immune system is fully developed!

9. Avoid Microchipping—Natural ID Options Exist!

Microchips may cause immune reactions or tumors. Instead, try:

Custom engraved collars with your info
Tattoo ID—a safe, visible alternative
GPS collars for high-risk dogs

Pro Tip: If your pup is always by your side, a microchip may be unnecessary!

10. Spaying & Neutering: A Conscious Choice

Spay/neuter recommendations are often one-size-fits-all, but removing sex hormones too early can lead to joint issues, obesity, and increased cancer risk.

 Wait until your dog is fully mature (1–2 years)
 Consider hormone-sparing alternatives (vasectomy for males, ovary-sparing spay for females)

Pro Tip: Spay/neuter is a personal decision—do what feels right for your pup!

11. Say No to Drugs & Chemical Meds

The allopathic vet model relies on antibiotics, steroids, and drugs—but many issues can be healed naturally.

Use homeopathy & herbs for minor ailments
Boost immunity naturally to prevent illness
Colloidal silver is a safe, holistic alternative to antibiotics

Pro Tip: Most vet visits are avoidable with proper nutrition & natural care!

12. Trust Nature & Holistic Healing 

Your puppy’s body is designed to heal—trust it! Conventional medicine often suppresses symptoms, while holistic care addresses root causes.

 Let your pup detox naturally if needed
 Watch for "healing crises"—they are signs of deep recovery
Trust in holistic methods—they have been used for centuries!

Pro Tip: True healing requires patience, faith, and alignment with nature.
