Marney Prince advocates for eastern food therapy, or EFT.

EFT is based on the idea of warming, neutral and cooling foods.

Dogs that suffer from slow circulation, are lethargic, have loose stool, watery eyes, or anxiety. they need a warming diet that includes chicken, lamb, turkey, mussels, trout, pumpkin, kale, carrots and coconut oil.

“A dog that needs a cooling recipe would need attributes in the food that moisturize the body and take down inflammation," said Prince.

You can order food and get a free eastern food therapy assessment of your dog by going to her website.
