As we pounce into the new year, my heart is so full. 💛

Head to Tail Canine Nutrition may be a solo business, but it’s never felt like a solo journey. Thank you to every single client who has supported me over the years — for your kindness, patience, encouragement, and trust. This year was another success because of you.

Getting to meet so many wonderful people at markets this year was truly one of the highlights. Every conversation and familiar or new face reminded me why I love what I do. I look forward to continuing to serve my community and beyond in the months to come.

And a huge shoutout to everyone who purchased Adored Beast products through us this year. Because of your support, Adored Beast was able to make a generous donation to Hope For Wildlife in 2025. Being able to play even a small part in that impact, alongside other businesses who carry their products, is something we’re incredibly grateful for. 🐾

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to another year of healthy dogs, meaningful connections, and doing good together.

I hope you all had a very wonderful holiday and a Happy New Year!

My dogs love the mushroom blend I have 4 shelties ages 11.5 ,8 ,4 and 1 I give it to all of them but my oldest gets a bit more than the others to help her immune system.

Atlas was given six months to live.

More than three years later, he’s still here—stable, engaged, and enjoying life. 🤍

His journey is a reminder that heart disease doesn’t have to be a give-up moment. When conventional cardiology care is thoughtfully paired with integrative, whole-body support, dogs living with Mitral Valve Disease (MVD) and Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) can maintain quality of life longer than many expect.

Atlas’s foundational heart-support approach includes:
✨ Species-appropriate nutrition (including raw heart)
✨ CoQ10 for cardiac cellular energy
✨ Omega-3s to support circulation & inflammation balance
✨ Medicinal mushrooms (including Tremella for hydration & connective tissue)
✨ Hawthorn for heart strength & circulation
✨ Organ support to protect the liver & kidneys on long-term meds

This combination—along with individualized homeopathic care and careful monitoring—has helped Atlas stay stable while keeping medications to a minimum.

💫 The last 3 days of our Christmas / New Year’s sale is coming up, from December 29-31! Making it the perfect time to support your dog’s heart, organs, and overall resilience going into the new year.

✨ Education only. Always work alongside your veterinarian when supporting heart disease.

🐾 Senior dogs deserve more than “this is just aging.”
If your dog is moving slower, struggling to get up, or feeling stiff after rest, arthritis (or other bone/joint conditions) may be part of the picture, but discomfort doesn’t have to be their normal.

Supporting senior joints goes far beyond pain management.

Things like:
• removing inflammatory carbohydrates
• feeding high-quality, species-appropriate proteins
• adding green-lipped mussel (GLM), seal oil, and bone broth
• supporting endocrine balance with homeopathic hormone replacement & LH
• targeted formulas like Adored Beast Jump for Joynts and Phyto-Synergy

can make a real difference in comfort, mobility, and quality of life.
I’ve put together a detailed blog post walking through these options with information such as why they matter, how they work, and how they support the whole dog, not just the joints.

And because no two seniors are the same, this is never about throwing everything at once. At Head to Tail Canine Nutrition, I work with you to build a personalized regime using tools like GLM, seal oil, medicinal mushrooms, hormone support, and other targeted supplements that are based on your dog’s body, history, and needs.

If your heart dog is slowing down, needing more help, or just doesn’t move like they used to, you’re not alone—and there are ways to support them gently and intentionally.

If ultra-processed food HARMS EVERY ORGAN SYSTEM in humans…
why on earth are we still believing that kibble is “healthy”? 🤯

A massive new global review looked at more than 100 long-term human studies and found a consistent pattern: ultra-processed foods don’t just “add a few empty calories.” They disrupt every major organ system.

They hijack appetite signals… throw blood sugar off a cliff… fire up inflammation… burden detox pathways… alter the microbiome… and even affect the brain.

In other words: these foods literally change how the body functions... and not for the better!!

Now here’s the part that makes my eyeballs twitch:

No veterinarians will (hopefully) do this to their OWN body, so WHY do they insist that our pets can possibly thrive on ultra-processed food????? Someone explain this to me!

The science has been clear for years.
Yet so many still panic as if raw food — which is biologically appropriate for dogs and cats is radioactive and defend kibble like it’s the Holy Grail to a healthy life.

Guess what?

Dog studies echo the same pattern. Ultra-processed diets = more inflammation, more oxidative stress, more metabolic dysfunction. Real food = improved gut health, better immune balance, better markers of inflammation.

It’s not magic. It’s biology.

If these foods harm humans…
and the same mechanisms apply to pets…
why would kibble be an exception to the laws of physiology?

It’s time to stop treating pets like little waste recyclers that can “handle” anything.

Real bodies need real food.

Whether they walk on two legs or four.

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 5 star review from Sheena Rafferty: Helps with IBD

Soil & Sea is a big part of my dogs' pre/probiotic rotation. I've noticed improved digestion and a huge reduction in GI issues with my girl with IBD. For everyone else, it's a daily part of their healthy, natural diet.
