Holistic Health & Nutrition For Your Pup

Your and your family’s health and nutrition are of paramount importance – so why should Fido be any different? Preparing your own pet food is easy, quick, and gives you control over the quality of ingredients going into your best friend’s dish – particularly important if your dog has allergies or sensitivities. Plus, discover how to offer your dog optimum healthcare at home through herbal and holistic approaches, discussing when trips to the vet are needed and the beast way to keep your pal well.

Join Chef Christy to make some dog biscuits to take home as well as a sample of her homemade dog food recipe. Discuss the pros and cons of raw food diets, commercial kibble, and the evolution of a canine digestive tract. Highly-trained veterinary technician, Todd, will guide you through a holistic approach to your dog’s health.

About the Instructors:
Chef Christy has ‘been there, eaten that’ and knows the ins-and-outs of dietary restrictions and food-related health issues. As an animal lover, it only made sense for her to apply her skillset and knowledge to pets as well. She is not only a classically trained chef, but also a passionate food historian. You can find out more at her website.

Todd has been practicing and teaching veterinary care for nearly 20 years as a licensed Emergency and Critical Care Veterinary Technician. He is also an herbalist and has studied natural health for over a decade. Todd is especially passionate about offering needed services to under-served communities as well as expanding the application of herbal medicines to our four-legged family members.
