"The Dog's Dinner"

My background is in natural nutrition for humans, though I quickly saw the parallels with canine nutrition - we are not that disimilar. I've witnessed many times the powerful changes that quality appropriate food can make to the health of both humans and dogs.

Over the last 25 years, I have fed my dogs across the spectrum of kibble, raw and fresh, home-cooked diets. Sometimes the diet you believe to be the best for a dog is not one they can tolerate, so being flexible and open-minded is key.

It's important to me that I offer ongoing support, giving you the opportunity to ask questions when putting changes into practice, to get feedback and advice when you face hurdles or challenges, and to maintain momentum. It helps to build the competence and confidence you need to succeed - and your success is my success.

As you are probably aware by now, there are no guarantees in life. Dogs are genetically unique indivduals whose health is the result of a complex mix of internal and external influences. I would be wary of anyone who claims to guarantee a resolution of all issues.

What I can guarantee is that I will listen to your concerns, and support and guide you.  And I'm confident that the skills I share with you will deepen your understanding of your dog's whole health needs and empower you to move forward in a more positive way. 

While I do offer In-Person consultations in the local area, online works particularly well as my focus is on supporting you with the tools and strategies that you need so that you can help and support your dog.

Interestingly, when the pandemic forced canine nutritionists to offer their services online they were surprised how successful it proved to be and the distinct advantages over face-to-face meetings:

• Your dog is not upset or unsettled by an unfamiliar presence. This is especially important for the sensitive dogs I often work with.
• You're not paying for my travelling time and time waiting for your dog to settle.
• I can glean more information by observing video footage taken by you at various times and in various places than I could from a single face-to-face meeting in one setting.
• Our time together is focused and productive; your dog can snooze happily in the background while we concentrate on how we can best help them.

My aim for you is that you will feel a sense of relief and clarity almost immediately by having a better understanding of your dog's dietary needs and how their current diet and symptoms may be linked.

Each dog will respond to dietary changes in their own way and over different periods of time, from as little as 24 hours to several weeks. It's important to be guided by your dog's responses and to use that information to make the changes appropriate for them. 

We never stop learning and this package is just a starting point on your journey. You may want to add extra support sessions to maintain your progress and momentum. 

Yes, this package is specifically tailored to your dog and their current needs whether they are a puppy or senior citizen.
