Today, we’re diving nose-first into the world of pug nutrition but on a more pawsonal level.

That’s right, Rosie and Kenji have been working with our fur-end Jackie Gowland from Functional Canine to help with Rosie’s reflux that made mealtimes a bit ruff, and Kenji’s sensitive tummy that made toileting a bit of a challenge for him too.

I promised that I get Jackie back on to follow-up on our first conversation with her about pet nutrition and what better way than to share the results of her work with Rosie and Kenji

We’ll chat about what wasn’t working, what finally clicked, and how even small changes to what’s in their bowls made a huge difference to their health and happiness.
