FEED REAL FOOD.

Welcome to Chadwick Nutrition, where we understand the power of fresh feeding for holistic pet wellness.

I'm Jacinta, a passionate Canine Nutritionist and I'm here to advocate for nourishing dogs with 'species-appropriate' whole foods. Why? Because I firmly believe that optimal nutrition isn't just important—it's essential.

My purpose is clear: to arm you with the knowledge and tools needed to provide your dogs with the best life possible. That means embracing real, natural food—the way nature intended.

At Chadwick Nutrition, we know that what our dogs eat directly influences their well-being. That's why we're on a mission to champion nutrition as the cornerstone of preventive healthcare for pets. It's not just about filling their bowls; it's about fueling their vitality, supporting their immune systems, and strengthening their defenses against disease.

Whether you're seeking nutrition guidance, tailored meal plans, supplements, or assistance with gut health and allergies, I'm here to guide you and your dog every step of the way.

Let's embark on this journey together, ensuring your dogs receive the nutrition they deserve, so they can thrive for years to come.

My journey with fresh feeding began 12 years ago...

My Golden Retrievers Chad and Noah were constantly battling allergies, ear infections, skin rashes, and itchiness. After endless vet visits and ineffective treatments, I discovered raw feeding. The improvement was immediate, and they never had allergy issues again.

From that moment, I became a passionate advocate for feeding raw.I hold a Diploma in Companion Pet Nutrition from the National College Of Traditional Medicine (NCTM), specialising in dogs and cats. I’ve also learned from human holistic health practitioners, as I believe the pet world is lagging behind in this field.

They taught me that the body can heal when given the right tools...

"I can't control everything in my dog's life, but I can control what I put in their body and what they eat...control the controllable"

“Not only has Jacinta given me the tools to continue health and wellness for my girls, but also become part of our family!
She goes above and beyond to help educate and support the journey of your animals and id highly recommend taking advantage of a consult because you will learn so much!
Nutrition is key to health and Jacinta leads by example in all areas of this. Her own pooches are a reflection of her dedication."

Shauna

She is a wealth of knowledge and is always happy to answer my millions of questions. Highly recommend booking a consult if you want to create balanced fresh meals for your dogs!.”

Toni

My babies have never been healthier thanks to jacintas wealth of knowledge.
She has your pets best intentions at heart and will go above and beyond to make sure they are as happy and healthy as they can be.
My girls absolutely their diet. And they love Jacinta!
She will forever be a part of our lives."

Should I fast my dog? How many meals a day?

Well it depends ….

I don’t believe the blanket rule of fasting or one meal a day is good for all dogs .

Puppies need to be fed several times a day.
But even adult dogs, some will benefit from two meals a day.

Here is why …

Fasting in theory sounds great, and does have benefits.
However not all dogs should fast!

A dog that is diabetic will need more than One meal a day & shouldn’t fast.

A dog that is anxious burns through more nutrients especially B vitamins, I prefer them eating two meals a day.
Fasting can cause anxiety and stress for some dogs .

Small breeds of dogs don’t always do well with long fasting period, as it can make their blood sugars drop.

Long term fasting can break down muscle mass. So senior dogs I don’t like long periods of fasting. I’m also conscious of this with dogs prone to back issues etc.

Never fast a pregnant bitch.
A bitch on heat I would feed twice a day.

Bloat . Extra large breeds eating 1.5kg of food in one sitting is not ideal. I prefer them eating two meals a day.

Not enough calories. The body requires a certain amount of calories just for everyday function. So if you are going to fast your dog you need to make sure they are getting in the nutrients they need.

Nutrient deficiencies. Your dog needs protein, fats, vitamins , minerals , amino acids daily . Are you meeting these ?

Some dogs will vomit bile if fasted for long periods of time.
A lot of the time this is resolved when they are fed twice a day.

Should you fast your dog?
There are some great benefits around fasting for gut health and the immune system. The question is, is your dog healthy enough to handle the fast?

So how often should you feed your dog?
Whatever works for them 🐶

Food is fuel 🥩
Feed the dog in front of you

Hustle for the muscle 💪🏽

Everyone talks about having a lean dog, but not enough people talk about having a strong dog!

Building a strong body should be a priority for your dog as it reduces the risk of injury.
Muscle mass is everything
Feed real food. 🥩 🍗 🫐
A high protein diet helps build muscle
Moderate fat, low carbohydrate is optimal.

Do strength training / exercises with your dog to build their muscle mass.

In humans low muscle mass is associated with outcomes such as higher surgical and post-operative complications, longer length of hospital stay, lower physical function, poorer quality of life and shorter survival.

With the amount of dogs suffering injuries, and a crazy amount of dachshunds suffering with IVDD, we really need to be focusing on getting our dogs strong.

@melbvetrehab has been helping me get the snags strong, with Dr Jess own clinic opening soon in Melbourne 🙌

We have some very exciting products launching early 2025 to support mobility, an area I am very passionate about.

Make dogs great again ™️

Your dog doesn’t need rice!!!🍚

What’s a common theme I see with people attempting to make home made meals ?
Rice.

Protein is ESSENTIAL for dogs
Fat is ESSENTIAL for dogs
Carbohydrates like rice ARE NOT Essential and if anything more of a hindrance.

Your dog uses FAT for fuel not carbohydrates.

Sure, some natural non processed carbohydrates like steamed pumpkin, sweet potato, fruit & vegetables are a great addition to your dog’s meal.
They provide vitamins and minerals, have benefits as a fibre source, and act as a food source for the microbiome.

However, your dog shouldn’t be eating processed grains.
There really is no benefit with adding rice to your pets meal. Like none.

A 2003 German study found that blood taurine concentrations were lower in dogs fed diets containing whole grain rice, rice bran or barley.
Taurine is very important for heart health.

Your dog’s food should be a keto template.
Lots of animal protein and moderate fat.

The carbohydrates in rice turn into sugar quickly, increasing your dog’s blood sugar levels. Rapid spikes from a constant supply of carbohydrates increase the demand for insulin. This puts more pressure on the pancreas increasing the risk of your dog developing diabetes.

If your dog is suffering from any gut issues you want to avoid rice and grains!
ANY inflammatory disease including arthritis you want to avoid grains. They are inflammatory.

A few more reasons to put the rice away.
-Rice can contain mytotoxins that are byproducts of mold and fungus
-Most rice is genetically modified and GMOs destroy good bacteria in your dog’s gut
-It’s common to find arsenic in rice.

With the amount of dogs eating processed food high in carbohydrates is it any wonder we have an epidemic of sick dogs with chronic illnesses?

We are stuffing them with grains that they are not biologically designed to eat and making them sick.

Put the god dam rice away
Your dog doesn’t need it.

Willow’s story below ⬇️ (as told by her owner) 🧡

“Willow struggled with mild arthritis about 18 months ago, I took her to the vet when she started to display pretty intense pain symptoms and we were advised to start Beransa & regular hydrotherapy. Initially the Beransa injection seemed to be the cure and she was her happy self again, her mobility definitely improved and we were so happy to see her walking again without any pain symptoms.

But after about a year of monthly injections her back legs started to show really bad signs of weakness, often her back legs would just give way (which you can see on the video) and they looked so unstable.

She was prescribed Gabapentin and her Beransa dose was increased. Her back legs didn’t improve really, they seemed worryingly weak and unstable. She also got really lethargic, she developed a bad yeast infection and just lost all her sparkle. She started to be a little incontinent here and there too which was worrying.

I got her seen again, she was prescribed a cycle of Synovan plus her Gabapentin & the higher dose of Beransa monthly. She didn’t improve, she just looked worse, she spent all day in bed and would often look dazed and delirious. She could barely get up let alone go outside for walks.

I took her back to the vet and when they said ‘let’s stop the Beransa because sometimes this can happen’ … I was done.
(I have nothing against medication when necessary) but at this point I felt like it was all a big mess and nothing was helping, in fact she seemed worse than ever before.

I jumped on a call with Jacinta and she listened to me and I expressed I wanted to stop all medication to bring her back to herself and provide her with some natural forms of pain relief.

Jacinta suggested I start her on a higher dose of P.E.A…

It’s been 3 months. She is ONLY on P.E.A and she has never been better.

I have NEVER seen her run with her younger silly brother like this ever!

Her coat is gleaming, her eyes are bright, she is back to her cheeky playful self, her yeast infection has fully gone and she is enjoying daily walks with much more stable back legs.

She’s almost 9 and she has never been better!”

🧡🧡🧡
