SHARING:
Just so you're aware - most pet vaccines are now mRNA and there can be shedding. Many vaccines for livestock and poultry and now mRNA as well (and what exactly happens when you eat meat that is mRNA, or eggs or...no one knows?). I homestead and avoid these, but even so, pork bought at the store is mRNA meat, chicken, eggs, etc... Some states, TN is the current one, are trying to force every livestock animal in the state to be vaccinated regardless of where they live. They will euthanize any animal that doesn't have proof of being vaxxed.

This is just a single photo of pet vaccines - the traditional vs the mRNA ones. Most vets have no clue. I called mine, we talked almost 30 minutes and they have no idea which is which or why I am concerned. Our vet practice has 8 vets, none of them understand the mRNA issue.

I asked if they have any of the traditional ones (and gave them the names), they said no. I asked which rabies vaccines they offer, they are the mRNA ones with additional words in the name but the same mRNA vaccine (Nobivac). Some vets are no longer able to order the traditional vaccines even if you are willing to pay for the whole vial. Just a heads up because people don't realize this is in our food supply now. Started with pigs about 5-6 years ago - now poultry with the bird flu vaccine (some hatcheries don't vax unless requested, but they are trying to get a federal law going to force every chick leaving a hatchery to be vaxxed first...). Cows in Europe, especially Britain, have mRNA vaccines now and they are pushing to get them started here in the US.

Not to scare anyone, but to let you know. And organic doesn't equal vaccine free - and don't take me down that bunny path because organic isn't truly organic most of the time. As a master gardener through OSU, I've heard it straight from the professor's mouths - farmers can use anything they need to get a crop to harvest and still allow the organic label to be used.

Talk to your vets - ask about the vaccines. I opted to have my pets get a blood test to prove their 'expired' vaccine status still showed fully immune to rabies so we didn't need to get that one this year. Studies show the rabies vaccine doesn't need to be given over and over, they often have life-long immunity. Not to distemper or leptospirosis, but rabies yes.

As I embark on a new chapter, carefully reuniting my cherished canine companions with their forever families, I invite you to consider the joy of welcoming a loving adult dog into your life. This intentional decision celebrates the next chapter in their lives, filled with love, care, and tailored attention.

Rest assured, the process will unfold thoughtfully, prioritizing the perfect match. If your heart is ready to open up to an adult dog, aged 2-6 years, I encourage you to share your loving environment and lifestyle with me. Together, let's discover the perfect harmony.

Occasionally, questions arise regarding the compassionate choice of rehoming retired dogs. For those unfamiliar with responsible breeding practices, this decision may raise concerns.

However, I'd like to share a different perspective. The happiness and well-being of my retired dogs, now thriving in their new homes, bring me immense joy. In their new families, they're not only loved but truly spoiled, receiving undivided attention as cherished companions.

This new chapter isn't about better or worse; it's about embracing a fresh journey, tailored to their needs and happiness. As someone who forms lasting bonds with these loving creatures, it's true that letting go is difficult. Yet, knowing they're surrounded by love and care in their new homes fills my heart with peace.

Quality breeders prioritize the welfare of their dogs, making selfless decisions that put the dogs' needs above all else.

Please be assured that their circumstances do not result from being unloved, free, or in need of rescue. My aim is to present them and another family with an opportunity. Rest assured, the process is unhurried and will only proceed when the right home is found.

Sincerely, Serenade

You only get a small number of Christmases with your dog, even though it never feels that way at the beginning. Time moves quietly, slipping past while we are busy with life, plans, and distractions. One day you realize how quickly the seasons have changed, and how precious these moments truly are.

Your dog doesn’t understand calendars or holidays. They don’t know what year it is or how many Christmases have passed. What they know is presence. They know the sound of your voice in the morning, the warmth of the house, and the comfort of being near the people they love. To them, these ordinary moments are everything.

The quiet mornings, the familiar routines, the excitement in their eyes, and the calm that comes from simply being together are what matter most. They don’t care about gifts, decorations, or perfection. They care about belonging. About love. About knowing they are home.

Every holiday you share becomes a memory they carry in ways we cannot see. A feeling of safety. A sense of joy. A moment when the world felt right. These are the things that stay with them, long after the lights are taken down and the season has passed.

So slow down when you can. Be present. Sit with them a little longer. Notice the way they look at you, as if you are their whole world—because you are. Make every Christmas count, not by what you do, but by how deeply you love, while you still have the chance.

Dogs give us the purest love, and they deserve a place where that love is valued.
A true home means care, patience, and compassion.
Sadly, some people want a dog without understanding the responsibility behind it.
A dog’s heart is too precious to be taken for granted.
So yes, all dogs deserve a home—but not all homes are worthy of a dog.
