about


Many dog owners are concerned about the harmful ingredients in processed kibble and prefer to offer their pets healthier, more natural options. Since the introduction of kibble, the incidence of food allergies or sensitivities in dogs has skyrocketed. According to a study published in the Journal of Veterinary Dermatology, about 10% of dogs now suffer from these issues, which can lead to serious health problems like skin irritation, digestive disorders, and ear infections. Ignoring these signs can further harm your pet’s health. In fact, the long-term use of processed foods has been linked to an increased risk of chronic diseases, including cancer, due to the presence of toxins and carcinogens.

We understand how overwhelming it can be to learn how to prepare homemade dog food. It can feel helpless when your dog is constantly dealing with digestive problems and allergies related to their food. But did you know that with a few simple strategies, you can ensure your dog gets all the nutrients they need without overdoing it on certain ingredients?

The "In The Kitchen Workshop: Food Therapy Meals for Dogs" is designed specifically for pet owners who are facing these challenges or those who want to start a new diet for their pets.

REVIEWS

Student feedback

Very enjoyable overall. Lots of good information .

Primarily trainers. Often there was jargon and concepts which would go over many pet owner’s heads. I found the dog play video ( Dr. Ian Dunbar)probably the most helpful for pet owners.

I have enjoyed so many things from this 4 day summit that I cannot chose just one! It has been an outstanding panel of presenters with so much compassion & knowledge! I didn’t want it to end! Absolutely everyone who is a pet parent should take time to enjoy this valuable information as well as our conventional vets whom could respectfully gain an increase in knowledge to benefit their patients & families. So much needs to change to provide a better quality of life for our aging pets!
Amanda Gordon

I have greatly enjoyed and benefited from watching the Summit. The diversity of speakers afforded everyone an opportunity to hear about issues not normally presented to the general populous, which brought about a rich foundation of information and awareness. Many presenters were obviously in love with animals as are guardians of these special beings. I felt Dr. Frick was exceptional in hosting, deciphering and guiding her interviews. I've been in human natural health care for 35 years which has always been applied to my animals, and still I learned new information! I would recommend this summit to all humans involved with animals at any level. The love and attention we give one another must also be expanded to include God's gift to us in the form of creatures...

Conor Brady's session was so informative. His comment at the end about not overthinking it is priceless! Thank you!
