Let Me Introduce Myself

I'm Sandra, and that's my boy Jack in the picture.

This website is for you.

It is all about dogs and natural dog health care. My wish is that you will come to know me a little. Get an idea of who I am, and what my mission is.

I try to do my small part to make this life as good as it can be.

I love to see a healthy dog. I look forward to answering your dog nutrition and dog health questions. If it is your desire to create a sustainable, lasting improvement in the health of your dog, you have taken the first step. Read through this website. There is information here that can help you.

You will meet our dogs, Jack, Pager, Teddy and Tuxedo and maybe even our cats. I hope this website will make you stop and think. Perhaps it will bring you a glimmer of hope.

Change is a Three Step Process

1. Becoming Aware - There are a lot of sick dogs. People love their dogs and are not always satisfied with the results obtained from conventional veterinary methods. If you are aware that you need to implement some changes ( obviously you are, or you wouldn't be reading this ), I offer easy, practical, and affordable natural solutions to dog health problems.

2. Taking Responsibility - That means you must take action. If you continue to feed your dog the same old way, and continue to take him to the vet to ' fix ' his health problems, nothing will improve. If you simply read a few pages of this website and do nothing, or do not contact me for help, nothing will change. That's just the way life is...change nothing, and nothing will change.
3. Correcting Old Habits - Even after you have become aware that you need to make some changes to improve your dog's health, and have actually taken action steps to do that, you will need to discipline yourself so that you don't fall back into your old ways of doing things. This means that you will need to stay the course and don't give up. I will help you make your plan, but you must stick to the plan. I am here to guide you and encourage you to continue.

The biggest mistake that people make when trying to improve the health of their dog, or their own health for that matter, or anything else in life, is that they give up. They quit...fall off the wagon or switch to the next ' quick fix '. Well you get the picture! That's why we all make New Year's Resolutions and then by March have forgotten what it was we were trying to change.

I love dogs and natural dog health care. I am a Natural Health Coach. I consult with people about the health of their dogs. I will help you make a plan that will likely include some food changes, perhaps some supplements or other natural solutions to help you conquer your dog health problems.

You Can Learn More About Natural Dog Nutrition and Natural Dog Health

Dogs get sick for the same reasons people do. Dogs are not much different than you or me. There are many reasons why dogs and people get sick, but one of the main reasons is improper diet consisting of poor foods that will not nourish the body.

Our canine companions are completely dependent on us for all of their dog nutrition and dog health care needs. It is in our power to help our dogs be healthy.

The quality of food your dog eats, will equal the quality of health your dog will experience. Feeding your dog a good natural dog food, can prevent or eliminate common dog health problems. You will learn how proper dog nutrition and diet, are linked to dog health. You cannot have one without the other.

Your dog is very wise.

His natural instincts tell him how to feed himself. If he was free in the wild, he would always make healthy choices for himself.

DNA studies have proven that all domestic dogs are historically descended from the Grey Wolf. Over the eons, natural dog nutrition requirements have not changed very much. There is much research available on the diets of wolves, coyotes and foxes.

Dog are scavenging carnivores.

So the main source of food and nutrients would be carrion, freshly killed whole prey including the whole carcass, organs, glands, brains, eyes, tongue, raw meaty bones and fur.

In the wild, herbs and plants are a source of food for wild dogs too. Leaves, grasses, twigs, bark, berries and roots are all examples of edible sources of food and medicine for dogs.

However in my experience, it seems that our domestic pet dogs will eat almost anything. I think that's because they really aren't getting proper nutrition from the food we give them.

If you choose to feed your dog commercially prepared kibble or canned, choose an excellent premium dog food brand. There is no perfect commercially prepared food.

You can improve this type of feeding by providing some simple, easy, inexpensive foods that most people already have at home in the cupboard or fridge. This will provide variety and extra nutrients that are missing from a commercially prepared diet.

There is no reason to feed your dog the same boring, nutritionally poor food, day after day.

Sick animals in the wild know how to heal themselves. Let's help our pets do exactly that, by providing the best dog nutrition we can get our hands on, ensuring excellent dog health as a result.

Keeping your dog healthy requires these things:

• high quality natural dog food
• exercise
• rest
