With all the dubious ingredients in pet products on the market, we have to be as vigilant with our pet care as we are with our own care. In today’s episode, Sherri Losby shares some amazing stories about using oils with her dogs. Sherri Losby is blogger, author and empowered pet parent who teaches others how to give their pets better longevity through rotational feeding fresher foods and providing a chemical-free home environment. After a health crisis in 2010 that helped Sherri “wake up” to food as medicine, she opened a natural pet food store where she had the great pleasure to be THE trusted nutrition consultant for thousands of well-loved furry family members. Sherri sold her store in 2016 to pursue natural wellness coaching in the essential oil world because ‘We know food matters, but what about everything else?’
You use essential oils on yourself, in your home, and with your family…your furry family members can benefit from essential oils every bit as much as you do!
