I will provide you with a wealth of information on how to easily feed your animal friend their natural diet. I'll show you how to put together your own Natural First Aid Kit and more.

Nature is your best medicine and what we eat and feed our animal friends matters!

These two were so much fun to take care of. I enjoy preparing their meals of real food that supports their digestion. These two needed a little extra support due to having upset tummies because their people were going on a trip.
I fed them sweet potato, mahi, mahi wild fish, sardine, cooked eggs and a digestive support of ginger, dill and fennel.

This girl that I am taking cate of is loving the flat beef bone I gave her. Flat bones won't grind their teeth down like the marrow bones. I get the marrow bones and ox tails for bone broth. The bone broth is for me and Albert, my dog. I get all my bones and most of my pet food from Blue Ribbon Processing. I also get my meat there, their local and have great beef and pork!!

This girl plays and keeps going until... She is almost 6 months and as sweet as can be. I am having so much fun taking care of small dogs with big personalities💜
Her mom said she struggles with itchy skin and gives her benadryl and feeds her a kibble diet because that is what most veterinarians recommend. With her mom's permission I have been feeding her real food of sweet potato, local beef, bone broth and my blend of nettle leaf, dandelion leaf, barley grass, comfrey leaf, kelp and spirulina. She is not itchy 🐶

I had the pleasure of taking care of 4 dogs during Independence Day. 3 were boarding for 5 days and the other was for the day.

During their time here I asked their people if it was okay to supplement their kibble 😕 with real food. They all said YES ☺️ I fed them bone broth, sweet potatoes and lightly cooked meat. They were all so happy to have REAL FOOD!

It is my mission to educate as many people as I can that dogs and cats need real food, dogs and cats hunt for their food therefore they deserve to be fed like we feed ourselves wholesome food🫐🥕🧀🥚🍗🦴🍖

Gomez the Havanese is sleeping on the pillow is a puppy and he ran around the yard until he crashed 😅 he was the daycare so I only this this photo and a video running after Piper the Caviler King Charles Spaniel. Fluffy is the black and white Pomeranian and Aoife is the Wire Fox Terrier.

Feeding a real food diet is not only simply, but it will save you money!

🐕🐈 eat less food because the nutritional value is there.

🐈🐕have fewer health problems and live longer!

🐕🐈 immune system is strong, teeth and gums are healthy and their coat will look, feel and smell good.

🐈🐕 f***s becomes nutrient to the soil and their urine will not be acidic enough to burn the grass.

Kibble is very hard on their over all health, 🐕 and 🐈 hunt and eat their food raw, we should be doing the same for them.

In saying that some dogs and cats digestive system has been compromised and therefore they may need their food to be cooked, lightly if possible.

I remember the first time I had Reiki done on my dog Quinoa it was in the late 1990s. I took her to a holistic veterinarian in Santa Cruz, CA because she came highly recommended for her Reiki sessions. This was before I began doing energy work on humans and animal friends. As Quinoa was receiving I watched her become very relaxed and could hear stomach gurgling as the energy was being moved. This is why I became a Reiki practitioner!

If your dog or cat is in a lot of pain due to a wound or accident, this remedy is great! Arsenicum Album 1M is very powerful with out side effects. Animals are very receptive to homeopathy.

Arsenicum Album 30C is great for digestive issues such as vomiting, diarrhea and nausea.

I have the Arsenicum Album 1M in my First Aid Kit!

Albert has the same undercoat and people kept telling me to shave him since we moved to Eastern TN. I was told by a few people the opposite, this confirms it!

I had a great time taking care of Bailey. He was left on the side of the road and was found by a very kind woman who has adopted him. Bailey is a little insecure due to being abandoned, but so sweet and a joy to have him around for a few days!

🚨 Hot Summers Means Hot Pavement!

Did you know that asphalt and sidewalks can heat up higher than the air temperature? Here's a quick test: hold the back of your hand on the pavement for 7 seconds. If it's too hot for you, it's too hot for your dog's paws! 🐾

Tips to Keep Your Dog's Paws Safe:

✅ Walk earlier or later in the day when it's cooler.
✅ Use Paw Protection: Dog booties can protect their pads.
✅ Walk on the grass instead of the pavement.
✅ Check your dog's paws daily for signs of irritation.
✅ Try indoor enrichment games.
✅ Opt for activities in or near water, like swimming or walking along a creek.

Keep those paws safe and happy! 🌅🌿🐶
