Dr. David Lindsay saved his life!

My 15 year old American Cocker Spaniel was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. Dr. David Lindsay saved his life! He no longer coughs and has more energy than ever. I've even been asked if he is a puppy!

He’s playing and active again

Many thanks to Dr. Martha for bringing our Border Terrier, Michael, back to health….When Michael was 1 ½ years old, he was very ill…He had lost 10% of his body weight, he had bloody stools, and stopped eating…Now he’s playing and active again. He has better energy and is eating well. Michael's success with Nutrition Response Testing had led me to investigate it for myself.

It was like we had a new dog!

My lab, Buck, had food allergies that made him itchy and he had chronic ear infections. Within days of our visit and being on Dr. Martha’s supplements, he started showing significant improvements. It was like we had a new dog! His coat is now beautiful, and his skin issues have cleared up completely.

In 2-3 weeks her limp was gone completely

My dog Chloe was diagnosed with a left rear leg ACL injury…. The veterinarian strongly recommended surgery…. Dr. Lindsay changer her diet from dog food to a diet consisting of homemade human quality food and nutritional supplements…the result was amazing!  Chloe had a very hard time walking around the yard before her diet change.  Within 1 week her limp was noticeably less and in 2-3 weeks it was gone completely.

Within a month…he has made amazing improvements.

My 6 year old cat was found as a kitten and his eyes were so badly infected he didn't have the ability to open them. We tried to treat for 6 years with no improvements. I sought our Dr. Lindsay. Within a month his nose started to clear up (and) he has made amazing improvements.
