Changing the Way People Think About Feeding Their Dogs

About 24 years ago I read a book called The Nature of Animal Healing, written by Dr. Martin Goldstein DVM. He talked about commercial dog food production, vaccinations, and introduced the idea of holistic pet care. I was sickened, motivated, and hooked on doing better for my dogs Jerry and Lucie. I promptly tossed two bags of kibble... right

into the dumpster! Since then I've had 15 dogs of my own, plus another 80 or so fosters, and served home cooked meals that became more sophisticated as the years passed. In 2014, my little black lab mix Lucie was diagnosed with a liver adenoma and then hemangiosarcoma, despite being on good food most of her life. She put herself on raw food, we pursued holistic and homeopathic therapies, never said the word cancer in front of her, and she outlived her expiration date by more than 3 years most of which were symptom free. I left corporate America and a 17 year career in management consulting to start this business and be at home with her as she grew old... and every single thing I learned with her through her life and especially throughout her illness made motivated me to pursue excellence in sourcing, recipes, and individual ingredients and proportions to help her live not just longer but really well despite with the doctors predicted for her. Every dog I've loved, and each dog I've served through Lucie's Legacy renews my commitment to excellence, service, and wellness through nutrition.

One of the best things about my job is the ability to continuously improve our products for our clients.

We began production today in a new facility that has given me the opportunity to update our recipes on our traditional beef with egg, and turkey with Duck and produce. truth is, we update these recipes at least annually, and today we took a HUGE step forward.

We will be submitting products for nutrition testing, updating our labels and submitting to the regulators for approval, and bringing 2 improved and 1 new blend (duck/beef/produce) to market!

I had a friend aske me the other day, how can you be sure of the ingredients in your products? I create the recipes myself, I hand select the ingredients and qualify quality with my own eyes, and I participate/train/supervise production and QA. 😉😉

This is my client, Rust. Owned, loved, and exhibited by my friend William Garrido - owner of Canis Fortis Sport Club for dogs in training for protection work. When I met Rust about a year ago he was IN a hyperbaric chamber for assistance with recovery from his demanding physical work and schedule. William said he was slow to recover, and slowing down in general.

One year later on Lucie’s raw, at 10 years old, here he is 🌟⭐️💫💥💥⚡️WINNING the advanced classes at PSA Trials. 💥💥💥⚡️⚡️We send our huge congrats on their continued success👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

This pair has such an incredible bond, watching them work together sometimes gives me chills, other times truly brings me to tears. This kind of trust and partnership is just not something I see very often, and they inspire me in my work with my own dogs. It is a joy, a privledge, and quite thrill to work with Rust!

Rust reminds us that age is merely a number, and that it is never too late to make a change in nutrition and see incredible physical improvement!

Luther Duchess & Stanley snack on Iron Table Wagyu beef heart and fat! Why? Wagyu is extremely rich in mononunsaturated fatty acids and is rich in Omegas 3 & 6. Lowering bad cholesterol, supporting healthy levels of good cholesterol, nourishing the brain, and keeping dementia and Alzheimer’s at bay in humans… Wagyu beef also features more conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), which can lower risk for diabetes and other a kidney disease.

This morning we are custom preparing food for a great dane with urgent food sensitivities and chronic/intermittent pancreatitis. The base will be this gorgeous beef trim from our partners at Mertzon Meats (and available every day in our lamb/beef blend). WOW! Purplish meat and yellowish fat is a sure indicator of a high quality grass diet - and inherently high in Omegas as a result!

Our Story

Lucie’s Story My name is Lucie and I’m a black lab mix. My mom says I’ll be 14 this year, but it’s hard to imagine. My mom found me when I was 5 weeks old at a shelter in Hot Springs, AR. Someone had dumped me and all of my siblings in the woods shortly after we were born. I was the only one to come out alive, and I met my mom the very next day. One year ago, I cheated death again beating liver cancer in one punch. The cancer was a big surprise; I went to the vet for a bladder thing that day! But a year later the vet says I’m in better health than a year before the cancer! What a relief. My mom began making homemade food 3 years before I was born, for my older brother Jerry. Based on scientific research, holistic veterinary medicine wisdom, and good old common sense – my mom created this cost-conscious blend of ingredients that taste great and will help me live a long, healthy, happy life. She only feeds me things she would eat herself – prepared thoughtfully and with techniques specially for my canine digestive system. These pictures were taken the day I met my mom in October 2002, and on New Years day 2016. Not too bad for an old lady.
