ABOUT Dr. Katie Woodley - The Natural Pet Doctor
=====
Dr. Katie Woodley, BVSc, GDVCHM, cVMA, is the proud owner and holistic veterinarian of The Natural Pet Doctor. After watching her own husband develop an autoimmune disease and be told there was nothing they could do other than strong immunosuppressive medications, Dr. Katie went down the path of holistic medicine. Becoming certified in acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine changed everything for her pet patients. She started The Natural Pet Doctor after being in the conventional vet world for over 10 years to provide pet parents with more resources for natural medicine advice and care so they had all of the options. Her mission is to ensure that all pet parents have access to herbal medicine, supplementation, and nutritional advice throughout their pet's lifetime that helps them thrive rather than just survive. Dr. Katie offers online education through her courses, UA-cam channel, Facebook, and Instagram.

One problem that many people face, is that they never learned how to cook for themselves, much less a pet

Informative video. When one of my two cats got sick, the vet I used was useless. He didn't even ask about food or diet. I started feeding them raw ground beef. It was all the one cat could eat. There was no transition. A few weeks later, she was fine. Now they eat chicken thigh meat, boiled six minutes and raw ground beef. I make broth from the chicken bones. I use TC Feline with beef liver to balance their meals. Once a week they get a tin of sardines. There has been no more throwing up. No hairballs. No bad odors from the litter boxes.

Raw ground beef purchased in a grocery can be too high in bacteria. Especially if it’s just feedlot beef that goes to grocery stores. Using a raw food store for animals like fetching foods would be a better option.

Hi Dr. Woodley! I am in the process of transitioning my dog (6yr old German Shep) to a raw diet. He has typically only been able to tolerate duck as animal protein. We rescued him and he was over vaccinated before we got him. He has suffered from food, seasonal allergies and yeast since then. We feed him raw free range duck now, but I am nervous about trying other animal proteins because of his allergies . I would love to give him some variety. Any suggestions on how I should go about doing this or what other meats I should try first? Thank you so much for any advise! I love your videos!

I've always transitioned my dogs cold turkey. Kibble, one night raw the next morning and never looked back. It took me two weeks to transition. My cats from free fed kibble to twice a day Raw. You can't do the Toughlove or cold turkey method with a cat usually.

It took you two weeks to transition what? Sorry , dogs or cats or just from them feeling better
