NCTD Workshop: Veterinary Nutritionist to Discuss Healthy Canine Diets

NCTD Workshop: Veterinary Nutritionist to Discuss Healthy Canine Diets

How do you decide what to feed your dog? Should we provide supplements? Do nutritional requirements change with age? We are inundated with information about whether it’s best to cook for our dogs, subscribe to fresh foods delivered to our doors, serve raw foods, or grain-free diets – it can get quite confusing.

NCTD volunteers are invited to a workshop and luncheon on Saturday, Oct. 18 featuring Dr. Lindsey Bullen, a board-certified veterinary nutritionist. Dr. Bullen has a private practice, Peak Veterinary Specialists, in Raleigh, N.C. She is the founder of the Clinical Nutrition Service at the Veterinary Specialty Hospital of the Carolinas and co-founder of the Clinical Nutrition Service at Friendship Hospital for Animals in the D.C. area.

Dr. Bullen specializes in maximizing nutritional care for pets, working with veterinarians and pet owners. “Our passion is helping pet owners and hospitals provide the best possible nutritional support for their furry friends.”

Registration for this event is required by Wednesday, October 1 and is limited to active and emeritus NCTD volunteers and board members. Please register on the NCTD website.
