In today's fast-paced world, the commercial pet food industry has been built upon the idea of convenience and uniformity. This one-size-fits-all approach to pet nutrition, however, has several significant flaws. It assumes that all pets have the same dietary needs, regardless of their unique constitution, breed, age, or health status.

This mindset not only limits the potential for personalized care, but also overlooks the possibility that mass-produced, standardized pet food may not be ideal for every pet's well-being.

Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) challenges this conventional approach by emphasizing the importance of understanding each pet's unique constitution and tailoring their diet and care accordingly. By recognizing the individual differences in our pets, we can provide them with a more holistic and targeted approach to nutrition that promotes their long-term health and well-being.

By embracing the principles of TCVM, you can break free from the constraints of the mainstream pet food ideology and take control of their pet's health.

WHAT THEY SAY

After learning about the energetics of food from Dr. Judy, I adjusted my dog's diet and the changes were amazing. By feeding a fresh, whole food, diet, geared for each dog's issues, I now have non-itchy, calm, shiny dogs!

REVIEWS

Student feedback

I have fund the information with the holistic people very informative and is what I have already been leaning to with my 9 and half month old Labrador. The first sign I had with her was drooling when I had left her in the car for about ten minutes. She had never done that at all prior, so checked out what would cause it. I then tracked back to when she was 6 month and was taken to the vet for desexing, (This was the trigger to it!) it became a very negative experience for her. long story! I have been aware ever since and I am having slow but positive progress with her with CBD also rescue remedy. Yes it is a slow process but I know I can get her through it. I have had back problems so have not been able to get her out for walks until present. I am out of a job also and money is now a problem with training. She is generally a good ,happy, beautiful dog even though she has chewed outside furniture. My last dog did non of this and she was left as a puppy most of the day to fend for herself in her own large back yard. I have found the information reassuring that I am on the right path with her and some of the information are good tips for me to also follow through with.

I think anybody would benefit from watching this summit. Knowledge is power.

Kelly Dunbar and Denise Fenzi we’re both wonderful at outlining choice, and relationship as foundation! Bravo! New puppy owners- sport trainers to review basics and pet owners to be good overwhelmed!
Esther Stieska

I was especially interested in Dr Cooney's talk. I have a year old shelter pup. Vaccines have been on my mind. I have had a consult or two with Dr Cooney before. Great information! Anyone who has an interest in learning more, a different way of healing. I started my journey into this type of healing a long time ago but there is always more to learn. It really is amazing stuff!
Angela Grundhoefer

Throughout the years I must have attended a hundred plus work shops, seminars and lectures. Your four day summit was among the best. It was diverse, informative and down right educational. What I gained will be used over and over again for the rest of my life.
Thank you very much, Joe

I would recommend this summit to anyone living with a dog, regardless of the dog's age.
Dr. Joe Culbertson

This was a great series. I have been feeding a total raw regime to my golden retriever since he was four months old and told me he HATED kibble. He is now 19 months old and thriving on his raw. These sessions expanded and reinforced my knowledge… thank you 🙏

I have already shared the series on Facebook with the Golden Retriever NZ group but would recommend it to all dog owners.
