Dog Nutritionist Advice
For thousands of years human beings and their constant canine companions relied on nutrition to make themselves better when they were unwell.
Today, while it’s been estimated that an improved diet alone could cure or at least improve up to 80% of dog health problems, vets continue to offer medication as a first-choice option, despite the harmful long-term side-effects. They medicate to alleviate the symptoms rather than delve a litter deeper to deal with the cause of the problem. Sadly, over time, their medication simply makes matters worse.
Short-term solutions are creating long-term problems for thousands and thousands of our beloved pets!
Once your dog has been diagnosed with a health problem, I work with you to endeavour to find a solution that involves improved nutrition rather than medication. I strive to get to the bottom of your dog’s health problems and then suggest an appropriate diet to move forward with. That’s what dog nutritionist advice is all about. Improving your dog’s health with nutrition!
So if your best friend suffers from Allergies, Arthritis & Joint Problems, Bladder Stones, Cancer, Chronic Kidney Disease, Cushing’s Disease, Diabetes, Digestive Problems, Ear Infections, Epilepsy, Liver Disease, Pancreatitis, UTIs or any other of a myriad of canine health problems, I can help.
While I also offer a number of readymade healthy dog diet plans, this personalised service may be better suited for your needs.

I had been struggling for years to sort out the diet for my two spaniels. It was so nice to talk to someone who understood the problems and genuinely wanted to help. Very easy to talk to and extremely knowledgeable. The support has been invaluable.

I contacted Gerald at Canine Nutritionist for some help with tweaking the diet of my elderly English Springer Spaniel who had some early kidney changes on a routine blood test.
The service I received was excellent right from the initial booking, pre consultation form, nutrition consultation right through to a follow up email.
Gerald clearly has a wealth of knowledge and I would not hesitate to use him again and recommend him to others.
I’m glad to say that, following Gerald’s recommendations my Spaniel remains well. 😊

Great advice, very very helpful….and has probably saved the life of my dog….I can’t recommend highly enough.

Gerald was really kind and informative. He made the process of learning to feed my new puppy cooked feeds as easy as he could. He is always on hand and answers emails quickly with lots of information. I would thoroughly recommend him and have passed on his details to our trainer and our vet.

Gerald has transformed my little dog’s life! By changing her diet to natural, human food and tweaking the number of meals and timings, she is no longer sick twice a week. For the first time in her life she is eager to eat and is much more playful and lively. I cannot thank Gerald enough for his support. I am now changing the diet of my other (healthy) dog, as this is obviously the way to go. If your dog has a problem, or even if it doesn’t, don’t hesitate. Contact Gerald!

Changing from commercial pet food to homemade food has proved enormously beneficial for my Great Dane. To seek the advice of a specialist in dog nutrition is well worth it….as with humans food makes an enormous difference to our pets health.
Gerald was both knowledgeable and kind.

My consultation with Gerald was completely transformational for my one year old rough collie Merlin. He had suffered for months with inflammatory bowel disease, which the vet said was like Crohn’s Disease rather than the milder IBS. Even his very healthy dog food made him vomit and caused diarrhoea, and he lost 4kg. The vet recommended a major manufacturer’s product for sensitive stomachs. This didn’t improve things and Merlin even passed the lining of his large intestine which looked like a placenta! He had to be anaesthetised to have an ultrasound scan. He was then put on the same manufacturer’s hydrolyzed product, which did no good at all. I was in despair, regularly visiting the vet and having to cancel most activities. The next step was steroids. At this point I contacted a company making herbal dog food supplements who suggested I consult a canine nutritionist. I had no idea this existed! I found Gerald online and liked his website and approach. A few weeks later Merlin is completely better! Gerald was always ready with attentive emails, patiently answering all questions and making numerous excellent suggestions. He started Merlin off with an elimination diet, teaching me what to cook for him and how to do it. This was much easier and less time-consuming than I imagined and my dog really loves his homemade food now in a way he never did with kibble. It made all the difference having someone to help me with what felt like an intractable problem. Gerald clearly loves his work – and dogs! – and you can completely tell he is totally committed to it. I can’t recommend him highly enough! I only wish vets would let people know that the option of a canine nutritionist exists and will certainly be politely mentioning it to mine!
