The owners of dogs adopted from Unicorn Farm -- most of whom keep in regular touch with us -- have reported the same results: beautiful, happy, healthy animals. We also favor a holistic approach to maintaining good health in our dogs, wherever appropriate. We believe in integrating "natural" and "traditional" medicine. All our puppies and dogs are regularly checked by a traditional veterinarian and are given the standard innoculations and treatments as indicated. However, we strive to spare our animals' immune systems from chemicals in the form of vaccinations, antibiotics and insecticides as much as possible. For example, we add garlic and brewers yeast to our animals' diet to avoid flea infestations from the outset, instead of using potentially harmful chemicals to treat a problem that is preventable.
