Canine Natural Health and Nutritional Consulting
Jeanette (Jeannie) Thomason, V.N.D.
Doctor of Veterinary Naturopathy and Certified Small Animal Nutritionist
As a veterinary naturopath, I am committed to providing you with the necessary information to empower you to improve and prolong the life of your beloved companion animals.
My desire and mission in offering my consulting services is to help you help your dog achieve optimal health and nutrition by giving you a practical insight into improving your dog's health through preventive, natural care, proper species appropriate nutrition and other natural modalities; which you can immediately implement; thereby giving your pets a longer healthier life naturally.
Why Have A Consultation?
* Do you question if your dog's nutrition is adequate?
* Does your dog have physical or emotional problems that you would like to address with alternative therapies but didn't know where to start?
* Looking for natural products but are a little confused by the huge variety on the market?
* Have a new puppy you want to start out on the "right paw"?
* Would you like to discuss complementary wellness techniques, nutrition and health issues regarding your pet?
* Have you been thinking about finally leaving commercial pet food behind and moving on to a raw diet for your dog?
* To discuss your pet's symptoms that concern you
* To learn of possible alternative therapies when facing a major health decision for your pet
Dogs have specific nutritional needs and the needs of individual dogs will vary. With the proper nutrition and care, our dogs live longer and happier lives.
The health of our canine companions is just as important to me as it is to you. My mission is to help my clients learn about their dog's needs regarding nutrition and care, helping them achieve balance and maintaining or restoring good health. With my years of academic studies, experience and research, I will take the guesswork out of any aspect of dog care for you.
Poor nutrition is a direct cause of the many problems dogs suffer - allergies, unhealthy skin and coats, cancer, etc. The good news is that you can protect your precious companion.
Whether your canine companions are currently healthy and you'd like to see them stay that way, or you are facing a challenge with your dog, such as arthritis, heart disease, allergies or obesity, I would love to assist you in making the best possible life choices for your best friend.
Dr Jeannie is educated in natural, preventive dog care as well as canine nutrition. She has accumulated experience in these fields through thousands of hours of academic study as well as independent research. Dr. Jeannie's experience in animal care is not limited to dogs, but also includes cats and parrots/birds.
Dr Jeannie's writings have been featured in various publications and websites, and she is the co-host of Animal Talk Naturally Internet Radio show.

Extended Support for any Consultation
All consultations are individually customized for YOUR dog and are delivered in electronic format (email) .
Consultations are a two-way discussion process whereby you and I work together to develop strategies that will assist in helping you to understand and effectively use methods leading to a healthier dog. This begins by having you complete and submit the Health History Profile.
Since each dog is an individual I believe in making this whole process individual as well. I strive to provide a prompt response time to all consultation requests, and all requests or appointment scheduling emails will be answered as they are received, but priority will be given to urgent cases.
If you are unable to download the health history form, please email me and request the history profile/information form. Then, email (or snail mail if you prefer) the completed form back to me and I will contact you with a paypal request and we will begin the specific, individual nutrition/prevention plan for YOUR dog.
Please do NOT call for an appointment, I must have your completed history/profile information about your dog prior to answering any questions. :-)
I look forward to helping you help your dog live a longer, happier life.

Client Testimonials:
Dr Jeannie,
Wanted to thank you again for your help with Shawna and give you an update! She is no longer scratching and her hair has grown back in thicker and more shiny then I have ever seen on her. No more yeasty ears either!
I know I was a bit of pain with all my doubts and questions but you were patient and kind and everything you told me made perfect sense.
Shawna thanks you for all your wise advice and prayers.

Thanks so much for your advice and recommendations. What a God send and wealth of knowledge you are!!!!
I agree with everything you say. It was also good to know that brushing is better than regular bathing as no one tells you
these things.
Thank you so much for your time and efforts to naturally take care of our beloved pets.
God Bless,
Sonja

with possible cancer mammary tumours, plus the really old one....
