Is Your Pet’s Food Working?

A food can meet regulatory standards and still not be ideal for your pet.

Instead of asking “Is this food good?”, ask:

How is my pet responding biologically over time?

Signs a Food May Not Be Working Optimally

Common signals include:

• Chronic soft stools

• Excessive shedding or itching

• Frequent ear issues

• Low or erratic energy

• Difficulty maintaining healthy weight

These are not diagnoses — they are signals.

What “Working” Actually Means

A biologically appropriate food typically supports:

• Consistent digestion

• Stable energy

• Healthy skin and coat

• Predictable appetite

Change should be assessed over weeks to months, not days.

Nutrition Is Foundational, Not Curative

This site does not diagnose or treat disease.

However, biology shows that:

• Inappropriate diets increase physiological stress

• Nutritional mismatches accumulate over time

Understanding food allows pet parents to make supportive, preventative decisions.
