My Approach
Every dog has a unique health history, life stage, and set of medical considerations. Formulations built to NRC 2006 minimums — meeting or exceeding AAFCO and FEDIAF profiles.
Precise, Individualized Results
Generic recipes can't account for your dog's bloodwork, breed predispositions, or health conditions. Ours do. Each plan is a custom formulation — not a template.
Therapeutic Nutrition for Medical Conditions
Kidney disease, liver disease, cancer, IBD, allergies, pancreatitis — we specialize in therapeutic formulation that complements your veterinary team's treatment plan.
Preventive Nutrition That Builds Lifelong Health
Fresh food reduces chronic inflammation, supports gut microbiome diversity, and provides bioavailable nutrients that processed food can't replicate.
Where Do You Start?
Medical / Therapeutic
Kidney disease, cancer, IBD, allergies, pancreatitis, liver disease, diabetes, or any other diagnosed condition. We formulate a therapeutic diet aligned with your vet’s treatment protocol.
Clinical Nutrition →Preventative / Wellness
Your dog is healthy and you want to keep it that way — or switch from kibble to a properly balanced fresh food diet. Raw or cooked, fully formulated and ready to implement.
Schedule a Phone Consult →Not Sure Where to Start?
Three questions. Thirty seconds. A clear recommendation based on your dog’s actual health profile.
Answer three short questions and we’ll recommend the right service for your dog — no guesswork.

Read Full Biography & CredentialsWhy Fresh Food?
Dogs evolved eating a species-appropriate diet of whole, minimally processed foods. Modern research increasingly supports what ancestral feeding has always shown — fresh food provides superior bioavailability, gut microbiome diversity, and reduced systemic inflammation compared to ultra-processed commercial kibble.
Bioavailable Nutrients
Whole food ingredients deliver vitamins, minerals, and amino acids in their most absorbable forms — not synthetic isolates added back after high-heat processing destroys naturally occurring nutrients.
Reduced Chronic Inflammation
Ultra-processed diets are associated with elevated inflammatory markers in dogs. Fresh food reduces oxidative stress, supports a healthy gut barrier, and lowers the long-term disease burden.
Proper Hydration
Fresh food contains 65–80% moisture — far closer to what dogs would consume in a species-appropriate diet. Kibble at 10% moisture creates chronic low-grade dehydration that stresses the kidneys over time.
Gut Microbiome Support
A diverse, fresh food diet feeds a more diverse gut microbiome. Microbiome health is increasingly linked to immune function, behavior, and systemic disease prevention in both dogs and humans.
Weight Management
Fresh food is naturally satiating and calorie-appropriate when properly formulated. It's significantly easier to maintain a healthy body condition score on fresh food than on calorie-dense, carbohydrate-heavy kibble.
Palatability
Even the most finicky eaters typically thrive on fresh food. Improved palatability means your dog actually eats the nutrition they need — not just the flavor additives applied to the outside of a kibble.
