About the expert
Focus: Gut-skin axis and microbiome-driven approaches to canine dermatitis
Canine nutritionist with non-veterinary integrative credentials (CHPHC, Certified Holistic Pet Health Coach; CPCN, Certified Pet Care Nutritionist). Argues that chronic skin irritation and behavioural issues in dogs often trace to gut microbiome imbalances rather than environmental allergies alone, and advocates Fecal Microbiota Transplant (FMT) as a longer-term tool for restoring microbial diversity. Contrasts FMT with what she calls the forest-fire effect of antibiotics. Works in the integrative pet-nutrition space; her recommendations include commercial supplement and biological-nutrition framing, and her credentials are not veterinary.
