Healthy Dogs are Happy Dogs.

I can teach you how to be aware when your dog is uncomfortable due to painful health issue, and guide you through the steps to get them back to being healthy and happy.

Often, dogs are cheerful and active despite having illness or painful problems ... most people think their dog is healthy despite subtle symptoms that a dog is coping with a disease that is actually is bothering them.

Some of my canine health case examples or shelter dog makeover stories could help you find the products you need to keep your dog healthy.

When we pair the right medical care, food, supplements and exercises, your dog can have a quality of life that is better than you thought was possible.

About Dr. Marie

I am not just a vet, I am a health coach for dogs.

I am a strong advocate for rebuilding dogs from the inside out and for keeping our aging canine athletes running with as little medication as possible!  I also optimize their food, supplements, and run any tests we need to solve chronic GI or allergy problems.

After 15 years of work with athletic horses, and dogs, I have developed a system for how to relieve chronic disease and eliminating pain in dogs so that they can rebuild health and strength.

SUCCESS STORIES

the good life - aging with spunk

"I have never had a dog enjoy  a healthy and happy life as good as this one."

Cassidy is a super senior, who with the right supplements, medicine, and exercises rocks old age with her frisbee on a daily basis.  

it's an active dog life

"I can't believe she has been on Tylan and prescription food for years ... and now she is eating real food without them."

The bi-athlete recovery after full paralysis.  This dog does not stop.

Trinity was diagnosed with IBD.  We have since learned that she has food allergies and appears to have a lack of enzymes to digest certain things.  Despite medications, she still had a rumbly tummy.  She has been eating a simple fresh food diet for a year and had a normal ultrasound of her GI tract!! No more symptoms of IBD for this girl.

Notch can do anything, because her dad has done everything for her.  She has lived the supreme athlete's life from long hikes to the pool sometimes all in the same day.

She has aged better than any 15 year-old dog I know.

fitness optimized - she is wonder woman

"We did everything we could to understand why she was limping and solve it - then we found Dr. Marie."  

Cassidy

Nothing keeps her down .... Heist is a super active dog who visited me from New Mexico after a year of lameness that seemed impossible to resolve.  She had  muscle strains that are not commonly diagnosed by ultrasound.  Shockwave and rehabilitation exercise have brought her back to full speed over three months, her mom will keep her safe with specific goals for exercise as she advances.
