"I'm so grateful for the help that Karissa gave me when my pup had an ear infection. She was 100% correct when telling me to change my dog's diet. A week after making the switch to another protein food, my dog was better. Thank you for sharing your in-depth knowledge with me, Karissa, and for explaining the hows and whys regarding my pup's health. "

"Our beloved boy Miles was exhibiting signs of IVDD and after numerous visits to several animal hospitals as far as six hours away from our permanent residence, with the last visit being with a highly decorated neurologist which resulted in a MRI. The neurologist discovered that Miles had a herniated disc and instructed use to put him on 30 days crate rest and prescribed a series of steroids. The doctor insinuated that surgery would be likely to fix the problem. After returning home we followed the doctor's instructions while staying in contact with Karissa. With her, we further discussed our frenchie's diet and the possibility that his condition could be being exasperated by the carbs in his diet. She then guided us, including doing at great deal of research on her end, to assist us in finding a company that could delivery high quality raw dog food that would meet the nutritional needs of our frenchie. Thanks to her and her knowledge our little Miles has been doing well for a year now. To this point we have been blessed to avoid a costly and grueling procedure. Karissa is truly a caring individual with a wealth of knowledge! We are very grateful for her help! "

Max, our Coton de Tulear, had been diagnosed with advanced kidney disease back in 2022 by a Vet who had previously missed earlier warning signs. We talked with Karissa about his situation, and she recommended a change in diet, as well as certain supplements. Even though the kidney disease was hereditary and well advanced, these changes helped to give Max a few more months of better quality time with us. Karissa's love for dogs shows through her caring attitude. Karissa is very knowledgeable in pet care nutrition. We're very thankful for her, and highly recommend her services.

"Healing Pets Naturally Canine Nutrition has been a life changer for my dog, Sadey. Sadey was diagnosed with kidney disease 2.5 years ago. Sadey had not been feeling well and was consuming large amounts of water, we took her to the vet where she was examined and had blood work done. Her kidney levels were very bad and we were told to put her on a Veterinarian Kidney Food as she was diagnosed with kidney disease. We tried the vet food and she was getting worse, she did not want to eat and for a Golden Retriever that is unheard of. I started to do some research and came across Karissa. She has helped us so much with Sadey. I had blood work done again and her kidney levels were starting to improve after a few months. To date Sadey's kidney levels in her blood are normal, vet said if she didn't know she had kidney disease they would never know and to keep doing what we are doing. Sadey is healthy, happy, full of energy and loves her food. Thank you so much Karissa for all your hard work that you have done for Sadey with her supplements and meal plans.

We've had the privilege of meeting Karissa over 2 years ago when we brought our new puppy home and were in search of guidance on the healthiest options for optimal nutrition for our dog Daisy. With some initial hesitation, we started her on a complete raw diet nutritionally balanced and haven't looked back. Since that time she also helped us nutritionally/holistically cure a bad ear yeast infection, provided knowledge and information about supplements for potential environmental allergies, skin and anxiety issues. Karissa has been sincerely exceptional in helping us give the best possible care for our fur baby.

My husband and I got our French Bulldog puppy, Jellybear, at ten weeks. From the time we brought him home, I noticed he was shaking his head and scratching his ears a lot. We cleaned his ears and they were filthy. He would also lick at his paws and in between his toes and I had nightmares of the same allergies that had plagued our first Frenchie, Bambi, for the entire time we had her (7 years - we adopted her as a retired breeder at three). Bambi really suffered and despite many vet trips and medications, we never got to the bottom of it to give her relief. At the end of her life, her ears were like leather, over half of her body was hairless, and she would have small crusty bumps all over her back, despite feeding her “premium” food and doing everything we could. It was maddening and upsetting to see her in such distress. When Jelly started scratching, I detailed our problem and posted a question about food recommendations on a popular Frenchbulldog forum. Luckily for us, Karissa responded. She was so concerned and attentive to Jelly's situation. Over the next couple of months, Karissa provided us endless guidance on the most hypoallergenic commercial foods available and homeopathic remedies to quell Jelly's allergies before they took hold. These interventions worked and he soon stopped itching and licking and we've only cleaned his ears a few times over the two years we have had him, and that has just been as a precaution, not because of any symptoms he has presented. I am so grateful that Karissa found us and chose to respond. She spent many hours preparing recommendation and offering tips of things to try. Not only that, but I marveled at how invested she was in Jell's progress and it was often that she would check back with us and inquire about his health. We owe her debt of gratitude for helping us and saving little Jelly from the myriad of allergies that plagued Bambi and that can be prevalent in the breed. I highly endorse Karissa to anyone seeking nutritional counseling and holistic remedies to help their Frenchies. IMO, they are the best, sweetest, most affectionate breed out there and deserve our best. It is such a relief to see Jellybear happy and comfortable! Thanks, Karissa!!!
