Tradition or Nutrition?
Several years ago, I switched my older corgi to a less processed food and truly believe it helped her live a longer and healthier life well into her later teen years.
I pursued further education in Chinese food therapy and veterinary natural nutrition. I aim to share this knowledge with my clients to help their pets live their best life. My goal is to educate other pet parents to feed their 4-legged fur babies the highest quality food within their lifestyle and budget.
3 main benefits from feeding a complete and balanced whole food diet to pets include:
-
- Good Health: A well-balanced diet provides all the essential nutrients that the pet requires for proper growth, development, and maintenance of good health.
-
- Better Digestion: Whole foods are easier to digest than processed foods. Feeding whole foods can improve digestion and decrease the likelihood of digestive issues such as diarrhea and vomiting.
-
- Longer Life: When a pet receives the necessary nutrients and vitamins that the body requires, it can help to prevent various diseases and health problems, which can lead to a longer and happier life.
