Let food be thy medicine

What is it?

There are many reasons to explore optimal nutrition when it comes to your pet. A careful balance of macronutrients and micronutrients, along with vitamins and minerals, will optimize your companion’s health. Nutrition counselling covers concerns such as avoiding key allergens, performing an elimination diet, or creating a diet for health and longevity. We use the animal diet formulator program to make sure your dog has a balanced diet no matter what the ingredients. We will work with you to formulate a successful elimination diet if your dog is struggling with allergies.
