No kibble for Louis!
Tracy Martin is the owner and the driving force behind Evive. She started researching pet nutrition when Louis came into her life. He was sick all the time. Coat problems, digestive problems, energy issues. Tracy began to wonder why it was that dogs and cats are the only animals on the planet that are expected to thrive on a 100% processed diet. This flies in the face of everything we know about nutrition, even human nutrition. Whole foods are better. But not for pets?
So Tracy started cooking for Louis. And it changed their lives. Today Louis is a happy, healthy dog with none of the health problems that plagued his puppyhood. And Tracy’s mission is to empower other pet people to do the same for their furry friends.
Geeta with Lucie, her adopted German Shepherd mix.
Geeta Nadkarni is a guest writer on this blog. Her quest to make the world a better place for animals began in Mumbai, India. Growing up, she would bring home every stray cat and dog (and occasionally, pigeon) she could find. She also began home-preparing food for her creatures when she got Steenki, her first cat. Over the years, she has served everything from cooked meals to raw carcasses. Her know-how earned her a spot as the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC)’s resident holistic pet care expert. Good nutrition, humane training and listening– these tenets sum up her philosophy towards pet care. You can find out more about Geeta on her own website.
