Vegan Vet Blog
Here is my journey as a vegan vet that I want to share with you. I provide 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 you and your experiences with your dog and the changes I see on a daily basis with dogs that transition to a plant-based diet, never ceases to amaze me!
