Description

When this sweet pup came to me, she was 20 pounds underweight, she liked her new prescription kibble but she didn't love it. She was taking 10 different medications for her newly diagnosed IBD. Her mom was frustrated, overwhelmed, and ready for a more personalized, food-first approach — but she didn’t want to wing it.

So we built a custom home-cooked nutrition plan designed specifically for her — her symptoms, her preferences, her condition.

Six weeks later?
She’s up 10 pounds, down to just one medication (from 10), and finally enjoying her meals again.

This is one of those stories that reminds me why food matters more than we think — and why pet parents deserve support that goes beyond just symptom management.

We’ll talk about:

  • What we changed in her diet — and why
  • The difference between “just feeding homemade” and doing it right
  • How her transformation unfolded (in just a few weeks!)
