Last week we lost our Bracco Yennefer who was our introduction to the breed.  Yennefer was the sweetest dog with people and she is missed so greatly.  Her nudge at the table, her sitting in front of me and not moving so I had to fuss her in the paddock.  Before whispers start it was NOTHING hereditary and she had excellent vet care from early in the morning.  I feel totally lost with out her.  I know people say oh but you've got others you're okay.!! No Im not okay I cried all Thursday.  Then the stress of it all goes into fibromyalgia like a brick wall and you feel fatigued.   Our dogs are so important to us they are like our children.  Much to my own children's annoyance lol. 
Im sure Yennefer will come and see me again soon in spirit form.  I had Chlili visit me the other week.  It usually throws me when I catch them out the corner of my eye.  We are but guardians when they are with us, and Yennefer was shown so much love in her time with us all be it short.  

Goodnight my sweet Beauty, youll be forever missed.

Hello to all the Silvestre owners past and present who use our Silvestre owners access pages via a password. 

You will notice that more files have appeared on diet.  Individual pages on individual food groups.   I am now removing my main diet file.  This will come back changed and hopefully better than when I wrote it in 2021.    I am constantly rewriting.  People think im a know it all on dogs.  Not really, as every year that passes I learn something new that I had no idea about.  More scientific research is done over the years and I can share that too.   

When you buy a puppy from me I send a diet sheet by email with the receipt.  If you have not received it that means it went into cyber space or your spam files.  Especially hotmail, hardly any of them go through to a hot mail account and I can then send via whats app if you've not got them.   I send religiously several emails when you've booked a puppy with relevant things for you to read up on before collection.  So remember if you didn't get anything I have no control over it as I SENT IT. 

Now my main diet files gone, it will be broken up into single pages for some items.  then some articles are longer.  Let me know also if you are enjoying what I write as why go on rambling if you have no real interest or refer to it. 

​

NEW ***Flea treatment and tick for treating naturally now added to my hidden pages.  

Note: Any file that has 2024 is an updated file.  Why do we date? Because products change, new ones come about, we may feel different about a product a year on, sometimes we just find better ones.  

Aren't you glad you've joined Team Silvestre with our wide knowledge on so much about our dogs health. 

​

Wow I didnt realise I had forgotten so many files to put back into the website.  Today Thursday 13th June ive added more back in.  Plus Ive updated several as well.
It's been pouring with rain in Cornwall and a gale today.  Not bad as we have only had one day of rain in this holiday.    But it gave me the perfect opportunity to sort some pages out today.  I hope to add a few more this evening.

Silvestre Owners:  You can access files with in this website with a password.  This password changes frequently.  Please ask me for the password if you do not have it. Whats App me for password. 

I have just updated VACCINE File 2024.  I have also added a PUPPY POOP FILE. 

I am gradually going to re write most files in there but this takes time to do it.  Im also checking to see if some files have not been added on the last update. I had deleted some to re write then forgot to add them back in again.

If ANY SILVESTRE OWNER wishes to contact me please remember in hours please. 

Email me any time day or night as I will pick them up at my convenience
TEXT me 10.30am to 2pm and I will answer when I can do. If it is to call you back then I will arrange over text.  If it's a question text it in hours and I will answer in hours. This is Monday to Friday.  On the weekends I will answer texts on the Saturday but NO texts will be answered Sundays. 

Did you know I have an illness called Fibromyalgia ? This causes fatigue and brain fog evenings. Im not being mean by not replying as I loose vision. Some evenings Im okay and others its hard to concentrate and view screens. So this is why I have work hours when my brain can compute. 

If you have a medical emergency please contact your vet ASP. Dont wait.  I am not a veterinary surgeon and do not profess to be one.  I can help with lots of minor issues with advice but medical health care is your vets job. 

I love helping people, and I love my animals.  Every dog thats left my hands is considered family for life.  I will answer you in my own time. I am helping people over text every single day. From skin washes, to dietary etc. I really do not mind and love being able to help you. 

Are you in our Facebook group ? If not find me on Facebook Rachel Savage. I can then add you to the Facebook group.

Just because I post on social media doesnt mean this is working times.  

Remember that I am not a dog trainer, I am not a behaviourist, I am not a veterinary surgeon.  If you require any of those professionals then you need to seek one. 

I am currently going to do a course on holistic remedies in dogs.  This will be part of a bigger picture of Reiki with animals.  Im about to finish level 2 Reiki which trains me to do it on humans. Although I already have those abilities, I like to do it professionally with recognition.   
So over the next few months my time will be split between caring for Team Silvestre and doing course work.  I hope that I can offer my skills to you if you're local.   We also have some other exciting plans afoot with products we can sell in the future. But to do this Ive got to apply for a license.  So more things afoot soon. 
I am a qualified groomer, and can give you qualified advice on skin, coat, and grooming.  Happy to help anyone free of charge.
