Holly Barker, a leading authority on canine nutrition who specializes in working and performance dogs, is passionate about caring for dogs and is equally passionate about sharing her knowledge. She says, "Every dog is different, and learning how to recognize and meet their individual needs is so important for their health, comfort, and longevity. If I can help make just one positive change to a dog's life through food, then that's my mission accomplished."
Holly has created recipes and remedies to support dogs at all life stages, from puppyhood to end of life. She strips away the sometimes baffling complexities involved in nutrition, and provides appetizing recipes and easy-to-make remedies.
In this book, Holly discusses
- Feeding the rainbow—increasing the fresh food and variety in your dog's diet.
- Home remedies, which are effective and easy to use (a must in every caregiver's first-aid kit).
- Fueling the canine athlete to perform at optimum level.
- The impact of diet on behavior.
- Diets to support dogs with on-going medical conditions
"Providing your dog with the right nutrition doesn't have to be expensive, time consuming, or follow a strict doctrine," says Holly. "If just one of my recipes benefits your dog, I am delighted. It is all I want to achieve."
