Feeding the Dog in Front of You (Rethinking Kibble, Raw & Dog Nutrition)
Description
Have you ever looked at your dog’s food bowl and wondered…
is this actually helping them feel their best?
Dog nutrition can feel overwhelming fast. Raw vs kibble. Supplements. Labels you can’t pronounce. Everyone has an opinion — and somehow you’re still left guessing what your dog really needs. And when they’re dealing with allergies, stomach issues, or low energy, it’s easy to feel like you’re getting it wrong.
In this episode, Em sits down with Nelly from The Combine Dog to talk through what real-life nutrition actually looks like. Not perfection. Not expensive trends. Just simple, thoughtful ways to feed the dog in front of you — from organ meats and whole foods to supplements, poop clues, and small swaps that support better health over time.
Press play if you want nutrition to feel clearer, calmer, and more doable — not complicated.
