Dear Pet Owners,
Quality nutrition helps your pets thrive and have shiny, soft, and smooth coats. I prefer to feed your pets high vibration food and treat options while I care for them. It turns out that many popular pet food options can be harmful to your furry loved ones and may negatively impact their physical health, behavior, and mood. Any food mixes with colors, flavors, “___meals”, oils, seeds (including nuts, legumes, or grains), sugars, or any other toxins or additives are not easily digested by their systems and can cause long-term harm to their health. Since dogs and cats are mainly carnivores they thrive on a meat-based diet. The following article describes this diet for dogs. It begins the third paragraph down at, “Our diet is based on…” (after Owsley Stanley’s quote).

To assist you in choosing the healthiest diet and lifestyle for your pets, I have compiled a short list of easily accessible options to consider. The following ranking is subjective and based on 25+ years of experiences with nutrition and animals. Product labels were last reviewed by me on Nov. 2021 (and a few in Jan. 2023). I cannot make any guarantees about the listed products nor am I affiliated with or receive any royalties from any of their companies. Please read the labels of all products carefully and choose the best for you and your pets.
To Your Pet’s Health!
