New Puppy Families have asked us so many times "what should we buy?", that we made a Cheat Sheet!
This is a wire 30" crate. Wire crates are great to let more air flow in. There are also 2 doors which give you multiple ways to place the crate in your house. A 30" wire crate is good for dogs up to 24lbs and 15" tall.
This is a wire 36" crate. this is our favorite tried and true brand that we use in the 36" size. We use this for all of our Fauves when fully matured and our MAS over the 15" tall.
All Products that we list are products that we use and LOVE!
Treats & Chews - Treats and Chews are just as important as dog food especially when you have a puppy. We have some tried and true treats that our puppies and adults love.
This is a slicker brush. Another must have for both of my breeds. This can be used in the tub while dogs are wet and also dry. This is used first to brush them out before you use a greyhound comb for undercoat. There are many different types and prices. This Bass brush is my favorite.
This is a Large Plastic crate. Even though this crate is more expensive than some of the other plastic crate we always buy this brand! There is a secondary locking measure on the sides of the crate so you don't have to "bolt" it together. This makes for an easier time to take it apart if needed (such as for cleaning). We start to crate train our puppies in these crates due to their more "den like" feeling.
Here at 4 Clovers we raise all of our puppies on Life's Abundance Dog Food. Life's Abundance is vetrinarian formulated and has NEVER HAD A RECALL. The dog food is manufactured in small batches and shipped right to your door to ensure you are receiving fresh dog food.
Miniature American Shepherds & Basset Fauve de Bretagnes
Food -we raise all of our puppies on Lifes Abundance Dog Food!
FreshZukes are our favorite non refrigerated dog treat. We love the Mini size and all the flavors!
Pupsicles are a HUGE hit here with all of our adults & puppies. In each puppie's go home bag we include a Pupsicle and a bag of Refill pops. This is another great aide for crate training.
All of our puppies are raised on Life's Abundance Small & Medium Breed Puppy Food.

Crates - Crate training is EXTREMELY important not only for your dog but also your house! Here are the 2 types of crates that we use.
We feed our adults Life's Abundance All Life Stages.
Fresh Pet dog food is our GO TO for training. Fresh pet is a refrigerated dog food that is great at dog class or out and about when you are doing a training session. You can purchase this at Petsmart, Petco, Target, Walmart, Weis and so many other places in the refrigerated section for pets.
This is a Greyhound comb. Buy it. Do It. Seriously I couldn't groom a dog, any dog, without one.
Life's Abundance Buffalo Bully Sticks. BUY THESE!!! These bully sticks will SAVE YOUR HOUSE with a puppy. All of our puppies and adults get these bully sticks regularly.
Red Barn Bully Rings are another favorite for those young puppies that you are teaching how to calm in a crate.
