But your pet is still suffering.
And you’re left wondering: What am I missing?

Here’s what one pet parent shared after going through my program:

“Trixie’s chronic itching—gone 90% after finally discovering it was thyroid-related.
Juliet’s skin issues—disappeared.
Charlie—no more vomiting.
Benson—finally calm and confident around people.
And us? Educated, empowered, and no longer living in anxiety every day.”

They didn’t find yet another "gut protocol"—they found a real strategy that changed everything.

Time to stop sugar coating... There is ZERO logic and common sense feeding kibble to any dog or cat. I don't know how veterinarians can have it so wrong by recommending the most unnatural, biologically inappropriate and downright toxic food. We veterinarians are supposed to be intelligent. Let's take the brain out of the "washing machine" and put it to use!

THE PUPPY FOOD SCAM
Why do we have complete food for pups and yet I have no idea how much magnesium my child needs let alone where they get it or if they're getting enough?

Not relevant for human kids.

We don't know a single one of their RDAs, isn't that weird?!

And you know who else doesn't? Your pups Mum. Can't even spell magnesium.

Now my kids are off Mum they just eat what we eat, a bit more mash-y at the start and, well, fingers crossed!

No NUTRITIOUS Mars or NestlĂŠ products for us. You're actually told as a parents you're a bit s**t if feed that crap to them.

I mean, I couldn't name a single good product of theirs I'd like to see my kids chomping on daily.

Not one.

Can you?! Answers on a postcard.

I guess the candy companies keep all the good stuff for the animals. They would, wouldn't they?! They bloody LOVE our dogs, after all. Humans, not so much, clearly, but for puppies, absolutely, they want the very BEST. Of course. I can TOTALLY see why vets (paid by Purina) would say that.

And lucky they do as the hairy babies in our house, we are told, are actually very complex. They need "science" or they will DIE.

I was on the A Bit On the Side last night explaining how mother nature accommodates for the slightly different and often varying nutritional needs of a baby to child to adult. Why we parents don't have to lose sleep over how much of what and when.

Here's how it works:

The body uses specific mineral transporters which work in the gut tissue. If the body need some zinc, it ramps up transporters for zinc. These draw more zinc in from the food to the gut tissue. Different transporters then take this zinc from the tissue to where it's needed.

And when the body needs less zinc, they downregulate their action. Neato.

It's almost like mother nature knew this was going to be an issue and took steps to ensure it wasn't....soooo our kids wouldn't die.

Studies show young kids (and nutrient-deficient individuals) have far more of these transporters in the gut lining than folk with optimum zinc levels.

It's an active, responsive, adaptive process.

This means me and you can eat the same meal with the same amount of zinc but one of us, depending on what's going on, will take in more zinc from the food bolus than the other.

Simple.

We have other tricks too. The body loves having a fairly stable amount of metals in the blood. Should we have too much zinc in the blood after a period of activity, and the stores are full, the body will usually expel it in the poo and wee. In times of need, however, we expel significantly less. We choose to store it instead.

All very obvious stuff but this simple process is why a GOOD DIET with VARIATION is literally the ONLY DIET MY KIDS NEED and why my child's recent addiction to banana sandwiches is less alarming than it is for folk who believe fast food clows are their pals, that their owning of all the doctors that treat the disease caused by such a start in life is just a coincidence.

⚠️ Is your pet licking the air… eating grass… coughing after meals... restless at night?

You might think it's just a picky stomach or a behavioral quirk—but these are often signs of acid reflux.

And guess what?

Most reflux isn’t caused by too much acid.
It’s caused by too little.

I break down the signs, causes, and a simple at-home test in this post.
But here’s the deeper truth 👇

💡 Reflux is often the first sign of gut dysfunction.

And gut dysfunction? That’s just the beginning of a much bigger story—
➡️ leaky gut
➡️ microbial imbalance
➡️ detox stress
➡️ systemic inflammation

That’s why I’m teaching a free Gut & Cellular Health Webinar

🌈Today is World Pet Memorial Day. And I want to take a moment to share my heart with you. 💓

The love you show your pets—through the joy, the struggle, and even the end—is the most sacred act I’ve ever witnessed. You choose their peace over your comfort. Their needs over your own heartbreak. That is devotion.

And yet… grief hurts. It can feel like the ground has vanished beneath you.
What makes it harder is the guilt:
“Did I do enough?” “Did I wait too long?” “Should I have done more?”

Here's my story with grief...

When I was 19, my mother died.
And for decades, I carried anger, resentment, and deep abandonment.
Only recently, at 56, did I begin to see the truth buried beneath the pain:
She let me go—not to hurt me, but to set me free.
To live the life my soul came here to live.

It was brutal. And it was the greatest gift she ever gave me.

Sometimes, the ones we love leave in ways that stretch us open—so something sacred can grow.

To all of you mourning a beloved pet today:
💫 You did the best you could.
💫 You are enough.
💫 Your pet knows it.

Healing isn’t about doing more... but about accepting yourself for who you are.

Grief doesn’t just break us.
It reshapes us.
It expands us—whether we can feel it or not.

You're not alone.
We're all walking this path together.💞

If this speaks to your heart today, share it with someone who needs to hear it.
And if you feel called, drop a comment to honor a beloved soul you’re remembering. 🌈

PS: thanks Dr. Laurie McCauley, Founder of Optimum Pet Vitality for the beautiful image.

📣 LIVE WEBINAR ALERT – For Pet Parents Who Are DONE With Guessing.

Tired of watching your pet struggle… while no one gives you real answers?

You’ve done the meds. The diets. The supplements.

But deep down, you know there’s something bigger going on.

✨ And you're right.

The root of your pet’s chronic symptoms is in their gut.

And what happens in the gut?
Doesn’t stay there.

It affects everything—skin, ears, joints, behavior, every single cell.

🧠 Gut dysfunction is the silent driver of:
🔸 Allergies & itchy skin
🔸 Recurrent ear infections
🔸 Anxiety, aggression & reactivity
🔸 Arthritis & autoimmune issues
🔸 Cancer, dementia & more...

Yet most pet care - even "holistic" - still chases symptoms, never addressing the real root.

🌟 That’s exactly why I’m hosting a free live webinar on

🗓️ Thursday, June 19 at 6 PM CST

📍 On Zoom

I’ll show you:

✔️ Hidden signs of gut dysfunction
✔️ Why symptoms persist—even with "natural" treatments
✔️ How to rebuild your pet’s health from the inside out

🐾 This isn’t another supplement pitch. It’s real strategy, real science, and real hope.

🚨 ACTION ALERT for Pet Parents! 🚨

The USDA is considering withdrawing critical organic pet food protections—and public comments are only open until June 11, 2025.
If this rule is cut, organic pet food could be regulated like livestock feed again, allowing meat from diseased or condemned animals into pet food.

Our pets deserve better.

🛑 Help stop this. Tell the USDA:
Keep organic pet food regulated as pet food—not livestock feed.

🚨 HOLD UP, FRIENDS! 🚨

Just because someone has a big following does not mean they should be giving out dog food advice. Especially when they’re an MD talking about pets they may not be as "nuanced" as one would hope.

Human health and animal health are not the same field—and expertise doesn’t automatically cross species.

Don't get me wrong... we need awareness spread anyway possible, but...

Before you follow a recommendation about what to feed your dog, ask yourself:

🧠 Do they understand canine nutrition?
🔬 Did they actually read the ingredient labels BEFORE recommending a brand?
🐕 Will their new adorable puppy actually thrive or is it set up for disease?

Because let me tell you, feeding gluten-loaded macaroni to a carnivore is NOT health advice—it’s a metabolic insult. 🥴

I’m not here to gatekeep—but recently it seems that a lot of poor information is spread by holistic/integrative non-veterinary "experts". Use common sense and do your research.

The truth? If your dog is struggling with food, don’t just change the brand based on a trendy post—get to the root.

💩 What’s causing the issue?
🦠 How’s the gut?
🔥 Is there chronic inflammation?
🧪 Are other factors you haven't considered masking deeper dysfunction?

This is where real healing begins—not with a bag of “healthy” dog food hyped by someone who’s never taken a deep dive into pet nutrition.

If you need help because you can't get to the bottom of your pet's gut and other chronic issues, lets chat 😁

My Story

I’m a holistic veterinarian from Switzerland. Having grown up working and riding at a near-by horse barn, it came to no surprise that my love for horses and animals in general would nurture a passion for healing. My mind was set. I would become an equine vet.

My parents’ example to care deeply about the environment and health opened my mind to question the traditional ways of veterinary medicine early on. Equipped with an inquisitive mind and an awareness of the strengths and limitations of western medicine, I embarked on a quest for cure.

The first step was to learn about horses’ hooves and their role in the overall health of horses. While working as a natural hoof care provider I made my way through vet school. After a few years of working in the traditional world of veterinary medicine, my deep desire to understand animals and the gift they bring moved me to relocate to the US where I expanded my knowledge to include animal communication, veterinary acupuncture, nutrition and different energy healing modalities.

In search of greater wholeness within myself I concurrently embarked on a journey of personal growth. This allowed me to deepen my ability to support people and animals on their path. I continued my studies and earned a master’s degree in Psychology from the University of Santa Monica, California, and went on to complete a program of Soul-Centered Leadership from the same school.
