She is an Accredited and Registered Veterinary Nurse in Australia (vet tech in North America) and a nutritional consultant. We discuss some of the most common questions about Italian greyhounds and food, like “How much rib is too much rib?”, “How to feed a picky eater?”, “What’s the difference between BARF and raw diets?” and “What foods help with leg and teeth health?”.
