Have you ever been called crazy?
That's me!
Some may call me crazy, but I'm kind of used to it at this point.
Showing up for what you believe in can be hard, especially with the way the world is right now.
But helping pet parents know there's another way to helping their pets is my life mission now.
So sometimes, I wear a cat onesie and other times I dress nicely.
Either way, making sure you know that you have a choice and that there are options for our pets is what matters.
Let me know if you agree by liking this post and are on this crazy journey with me!

📸 A moment of stillness with my favorite person in the mountains. Grateful for this life, this love, and this journey.
There’s something so grounding about pausing in nature with the person who means the most to you. Whether it’s the way the mountains stand steady or the quiet conversations shared on a trail, these moments remind me how lucky I am to walk this journey with my husband by my side.
Life can get so busy, but gratitude has a way of bringing us back to what really matters—connection, love, and the little things that fill our hearts.
Today, I’m feeling especially grateful for him—his kindness, his support, and his constant reminder to slow down and soak in the beauty around us. 💛
AND it's this special guys birthday today!
Please help me wish Ryan a happy birthday - he's behind the scenes every day helping you all so that we can make an impact in this world!
What are you grateful for today?
Share with me in the comments—I’d love to celebrate it with you! 🌟

🐾 Unlocking the Secret to Pet Gut Health: Finding the Root Cause! 🐾
Ever wonder why common pet issues keep recurring?
It's often because we're treating symptoms, not the actual root cause. 🧩
🌱 Holistic Approach: The 5 Pillars 🌱
1️⃣ Gut Health/Nutrition: Proper nutrition is essential for a healthy gut and overall well-being.
2️⃣ Emotional Health: Emotional balance leads to a happier, healthier pet.
3️⃣ Immune Health: Boosting immunity to fight off illness more effectively but also removing resistance to healing.
4️⃣ Environmental Health: A toxin-free environment along with supporting detox pathways supports optimal health.
5️⃣ Physical Health: Regular exercise and care go a long way for emotional health but also for supporting the lymphatic system.
By incorporating these five pillars into our work at The Natural Pet Doctor, we strive to find and treat the root causes of your pet's health challenges, leading to long-lasting wellness. 🌟

📢 Did you know? 80% of chronic skin & digestive issues in pets stem from poor gut health.
🚨 Sign to watch for: Chronic itching, ear infections, diarrhea, or inconsistent p**p.
🐾 The gut is the command center for your pet’s immune system. If it’s out of balance, you’ll see flare-ups—itching, licking, red skin, soft stool, or bad breath.
💡 What to do next: Stop the cycle of meds & temporary fixes.
Gut healing starts with finding the root cause.

Do you have a dog that has a crusty nose?
The skin on the surface of a dog's nose contains a protein called Keratin.
Sometimes, Keratin can grow too quickly, causing the dog's nose to become dry and crusty.
Also, it can indicate an internal health problem.
If left untreated, it can cause significant discomfort.
In the more severe cases, sores and a sizeable crusty growth will appear on the dog's nose.
But don't worry, there's a lot you can do to help them heal.
Here are a few things you can try to help their nose return back to that beautiful, black shiny boop:
👉Put some vitamin E oil on the affected skin 1-2 x a day or you can use wheat germ oil which is naturally rich in vitamin E. Standard Process Wheat Germ Oil works great for this.
👉Try Standard Process Canine Dermal Support: https://thenaturalpetdoctor.standardprocess.com/products/canine-dermal-support
Canine Dermal Support is a nutritional supplement formulated with ingredients known as functional foods. These are foods that have been shown to benefit various organs and tissues in the body.
The ingredients in Canine Dermal Support are a combination of plant and animal tissues, and provide nutritional support to key organs and glands like the liver, small intestine and adrenal glands, as well as the immune system. Support of these and other tissues can be beneficial in the management of a pruritic patient.
👉Add in Standard Process Black Currant Seed Oil.
Black Current Seed Oil is an organic source of gamma linolenic acid (GLA). It is a better source than Evening Primrose Oil.
It can be used for inflammatory situations and dry skin. Linolenic acid is convened to GLA in the healthy liver. In certain cases in which the skin is dry, the body is not converting essential fatty acids into a form that the sebaceous glands can utilize.
Dosage: Large Dogs: 3 capsules per day
Medium Dogs: 2 capsules per day
Small Dogs and Cats: 1 capsule per day
These are just 3 easy suggestions to try for your pup. You can get your Standard Process supplements here: https://bit.ly/Standard-Process-Supplements

Every pet has toxic heavy metals in them.
We unfortunately live in a toxic world.
But you don't know how bad it is until you actually test them.
As Linus Pauling stated “You can trace every sickness, every disease and every ailment to a mineral deficiency.”
And heavy metals are impairing how well our pet's bodies are working.
Aluminum and mercury tend to be high, but the levels can vary significantly.
The above test was from a recent patient that had experienced a behavior change and was having gut health issues.
Because we did a hair tissue mineral analysis test with just a tablespoon of fur, we were able to see that the detox pathways were not working as well as they should, there was a high level of inflammation present in the body, vitamins and minerals were low, and there was a very high level of aluminum and mercury impacting this pet from healing.
Once you know, treating becomes much easier rather than guessing what to do.
The best part about this test is that fur doesn't degrade, so we can help you no matter where you are in the world since you just need to mail a fur sample to us!
If you're ready to learn more about how well your pet's body is functioning, make sure to check out our hair tissue mineral analysis service here:

🐱 Did you know your cat is being treated like a carb-burning omnivore… when they’re actually a protein-loving predator?
That’s the hidden truth behind most commercial pet foods—even the “premium” ones.
They’re packed with starches, plant proteins, and fillers that can disrupt your pet’s gut, skin, and immune system over time.
⚠️ And those “complete and balanced” labels?
They’re based on outdated, minimal standards—not optimal health.
In this quick video, I break down what’s really behind those nutrient numbers—and why so many cats (and dogs) stay sick on diets that were never designed for their biology.
💥 If you’re dealing with chronic gut issues, skin flare-ups, or that nagging sense that your pet could feel better—this is your sign to dig deeper.

My Story
I am a small animal veterinarian who developed a passion for natural medicine while I was living in New Zealand. My vet career was lucky enough to begin in the beautiful country of New Zealand. I was able to see how living off the land by growing our own vegetables and raising our own animals was the way to live the healthiest versions of ourselves. My pets were lucky to have lots of open space to run around in, and we were always at the beach or the river.
When we moved back to the States five years ago, my husband unfortunately developed an autoimmune disease. As we researched natural medicine options for him to avoid the horrible side effects of the treatment options his doctors were providing him, I realized that I was doing a disservice to my animal patients by not offering these holistic options to them. I began down the integrative medicine route, and I have never been happier. Through nutrition, acupuncture, herbal medicine, essential oils, and supplements, every animal can achieve optimal health or feel their best even when they have a chronic illness or disease like cancer. I currently have my certification in acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, and I am continuously learning about the other natural modalities and growing my knowledge base every day!
I started this business to provide pet owners with more resources for natural medicine advice and care, because we need to increase awareness of how amazing natural medicine truly is! My mission is to ensure that all pet parents have access to herbal medicine, supplementation and nutritional advice throughout their pet's lifetime. One of my greatest joys is the opportunity to collaborate with both pet parents and other veterinary professionals to ensure access to all available integrative options for pet health care.
I offer house consultations in the Northern Colorado area for acupuncture for dogs and cats, herbal medicine consultations and nutritional plans that work for you and your beloved dogs and cats. If you’re not sure how integrating holistic medicine looks for your pets, give us a call to find out how we can partner together today!
