Herbs for Digestive Tract Support
Introduction One of the topics I am asked about on a regular basis, is which herbs are useful for “tummy troubles”. A little vague, and much of the time people mean intestinal (diarrhea, gas, constipation) but reflux and regurgitation are also common themes....
A Common Sense Take on Purina
Hello Friends, well, after a long absence from this blog here’s a new entry out of the blue – I’m finding myself answering the same questions over and over on social media, so decided it would be quicker and more thorough to simply write a few lines here about the...
So You Want to Be a Canine Nutritionist
Hello Readers, it sure has been a long time since I posted! Many of you know I had to take time earlier this year, for medical reasons, some of which continue but the most serious has been resolved, and I am working full-time, with clients and students, again....

Herbal Cookies for your Dog
