Why Choose a Holistic Approach?

Small breed dogs have big nutritional needs - and most commercial food ignores them.

Chihuahuas, Yorkies, Dachshunds, Pugs, and Maltese all have different bodies, different health risks, and different caloric needs than larger breeds. A one-size-fits-all bag of kibble just isn't built for them.

 

Small breeds are prone to:

•       Obesity and blood sugar crashes (especially toy breeds like Chihuahuas)

•       Skin allergies, itching, and chronic inflammation

•       Dental disease, heart conditions, and joint problems

•       Digestive sensitivities that flare with low-quality ingredients

A fresh, anti-inflammatory diet - built specifically for your dog's breed, size, and health history - can make a real difference. Not just in managing symptoms, but in adding years to their life.

That's exactly what I help you create: a simple, balanced, home-cooked nutrition plan designed for your dog.

Why Work With Me?

Certified expertise, personalized plans, real results.

Trained specifically in small breed dog nutrition. My certifications in holistic pet health and canine nutrition aren't generic - I've focused my practice entirely on small breeds. That depth of specialization means you get advice that actually applies to your 8-pound Yorkie, not a 60-pound Lab.

A real plan, not a pamphlet. Every consultation ends with a written, personalized nutrition plan - including balanced homemade recipes, supplement recommendations, and a transition guide.

Holistic and judgment-free. Whether you're feeding kibble, raw, home-cooked, or something in between - I meet you where you are. No guilt, just practical next steps that fit your life and your dog's needs.

Results dog parents can see. Less itching. Better digestion. More energy. Healthy weight. I've helped hundreds of small breed dog parents go from frustrated and overwhelmed to confident and clear. Your dog can thrive - not just survive.

One morning, watching my little Scottie, Reggie, eat his bowl of dry kibble, I had a thought I couldn't shake: if processed food is so bad for us, why is it all we ever feed our dogs?

That question sent me down a research rabbit hole - and eventually led me to become a certified dog nutritionist for small breeds. I've never looked back.
