PET NUTRITION
Keeping dogs healthy from the inside out
Our beloved pets play a vital role in our lives, and it is of the utmost importance to us that they lead long and healthy lives. One way to achieve this is by ensuring that their diet not only provides them with sufficient energy but also contains the necessary vitamins, minerals, and nutrients in the right proportions for their bodies to function optimally. Feeding our pets a balanced diet that is tailored to their age, breed, and activity level can help prevent obesity and health issues, support a robust immune system, promote healthy skin and coat, and increase overall energy levels. To make sure our pets receive a balanced and nutritious diet with no nutrient shortages, I prepare customized recipes based on the standards of the National Research Council(NRC) while taking into consideration the specific needs of each pet. This personalized approach ensures that every member of our four-legged family has the unique nutrition they need to live a happy and healthy life.
This ½ hour service is either via phone or email where you can ask specific questions relating to your dogs’ current diet, ask for food recommendations, or just want to learn about anything relating to nutrition for your dog.It will not include a recipe but will give you a better understanding of your dog’s nutritional needs.
Upon purchase of this consult you will receive a questionnaire to complete and return to me which will assist me in preparing for our session.

Canine Nutritionist
I have always had a special place in my heart for our furry friends. My journey to understanding the importance of nutrition began when I became the proud owner of two dachshunds. Dealing with their health issues and seeing the difference a balanced home-made diet can make, has shown me the significance of what we feed our pets and the consequences thereof.
I am deeply committed to helping pet parents understand the importance of good, healthy and fresh food for their pets. I believe that by providing our furry friends with the right nutrition, we can give them the opportunity to thrive and live longer, healthier and happier lives. I'm passionate about educating pet parents on the importance of proper nutrition and helping them make the best decisions for their pets. Together, we can make sure our furry friends are living their best lives!
