My dogs had been on Royal Canin Gastrointestinal kibble dog food for close to 2 years due to one having stomach upset. Vet at the time said the other could eat it too. Well, a year and a half later my dachshund refused to eat it unless I put other toppings on it or treats. She then started with diarrhea and vomiting. I took her to a vet out here in AZ (we had moved since). She would put her on antibiotics and my dog would be ok on them but once off the diarrhea and vomiting would come back. (Multiple times)Even the probiotic didn’t help. Then my other dog started the same symptoms. The next step the vet wanted to do was tests ($300-$800 more). Already diagnosed she thought with pancreatitis. One morning I woke up to a bloody pool of diarrhea!!
I remembered seeing on NextDoor people talking about Sandy from Preskitt Pawz and Clawz in Prescott, AZ and how she was helping other animal parents and immediately scheduled a consultation with her. Ahead of time I sent her the food I had been feeding them. When I arrived she was prepared. She went over each ingredient and thoroughly explained there was NO nutrients in any of them!
She explained to me that I needed to start healing my dogs insides ASAP with goats milk and bone broth for the stomach lining and intestines. The diarrhea and vomiting both stopped! Both went on OC Raw food and LOVE it to this day!! They are excited every time I walk into the kitchen!! They are like new dogs! My dachshund is 13 (with heart disease but you’d never know it) and my chihuahua/pug mix is 11. Two years on this food and liquids and the best part besides happy, energetic dogs??
NO MORE TRIPS TO THE VET!!
I believe in Sandy 1000% and call her with my questions about nutrition because the vets don’t have the answer!! In fact, I told my ex vet there was no nutritional value in Royal Canin and asked if she was still going to prescribe it and to my horror- she said YES!!! Because “it’s what the makers tell them!!!” 😳. I’m so glad Sandy is going out to EDUCATE all who will listen and take in her superior knowledge and advice! They won’t regret it !!
**Both blood and stool tests both came back clear while at vets.

I highly recommend Sandy at Pet Foodie Tips! She has helped me through some very difficult times with my dogs. Her philosophy of healing the dogs from the inside out makes perfect sense. Choosing a "clean", organic, nutritionally sound diet is a high priority for myself and my family. Sandy helped me see how this is just as important for our pets. When my dog was diagnosed with a very aggressive cancer and given less than a week to live, Sandy helped me find a way to get him the nutritional support he needed, even with his decreased appetite. He not only lived another 3 months, but he thrived! Nutrition is so important, after all, "we are what we eat". This applies to our pets as well. I currently have a dog that has some unique issues and temporarily requires a special diet. Again, Sandy has come through for me. Working with her is a pleasure. She is a wealth of knowledge and very passionate about what she does. I am forever grateful to her.

Sandy is so helpful and knowledgeable about pets and pet nutrition. I had a dog with severe allergies. I went to the vet, got the typical Apoquel med and was recommended a so called allergy kibble food. I knew better than to give her the crap kibble. I did some looking around and found Sandy. I went and had a lengthy conversation with her about my pet, starting from the beginning. She listened, was attentive and so professional. When I was done, she asked a lot of questions. We did an allergy test that cost pennies compared to the one the vet wanted to do. Upon getting the results, I met with her again. She came up with a plan for my dog which included whole, nutrient dense food and supplements that my dog was lacking from being fed terrible food(unknown to me at the time). Not only does she know about appropriate nutritional needs for pets, but her approach is incredible. To teach the pet owner about their pet and their pets biological needs. She has been a lifesaver for my little one. We are allergy free now and can enjoy life again. My dogs are the healthiest they have ever been. The knowledge I have gained from Sandy, has been a game changer and empowering for me. She truly is compassionate with what she does and how she does it. There needs to be more pet nutritionists out there and owners who advocate for their pets. The vets are like doctors, there's a real disconnect with most because they spend maybe 10 minutes with your pet and know NOTHING about nutrition, only to push whatever kibble company they are contracted with. If you and your pet are struggling and getting nowhere with the vet, please contact Sandy and see what she has to say and offer you and your pet, it will be life changing.
