Vegan Vet Blog
Here is my journey and I want to share with you as much of my up to date knowledge and research (that I never stop doing!) to allow you to make your own informed decision about your pet’s nutrition. I learn SO much by listening to clients in consultations and learning from them.
As a family we want to get it right not only for our own health, but for our dog Ruff’s health too, but our ultimate aim is for one of kindness – kindness towards our pets we love so much, kindness towards the livestock birds and animals, and kindness towards our planet.
