July is National Pet Hydration Awareness Month. To honor the occasion, I am offering 10% off my individualized support sessions, through the end of July.

Pet Hydration – A Lifelong Goal

Did you know that kibble is water-deficient, and fresh foods are high in water content? Feeding whole foods can help keep your furry friend hydrated all year long.

See below to get started on creating a truly nourishing diet for your dog.

Individualized Support Sessions With Sarah:

During our time together, I encourage (but certainly don’t require) you to make the sample recipe I send. We can then discuss any questions you have. Each session includes the following:

  • Review of your dog’s current diet
  • Suggested changes as needed
  • 1 sample recipe, created by Sarah
  • 1 educational handout (1-2 pages), created by Sarah
  • Unlimited emails and texts as needed, for up to a full week
  • Cost: $50 – purchase one or several weeks’ worth
  • Purchase one or more weekly support consults on PayPal
