05-29-17 Author, Blogger and Pet Food Advocate, Susan Thixton
Dr. Judy Morgan’s first Live interview will be with author, blogger and pet food advocate, Susan Thixton. Susan has a passion for animals that started as a child and continued as she became a skilled trainer using “kind and respectful methods”, These methods were fundamental in her boarding kennel, the very first all indoor / “all suite” pet boarding facility in the U.S. Susan’s life changed after Sam, her beloved Rottweiler, was diagnosed with and later passed away from bone cancer. After learning the probable cause was from chemical preservatives in Sam’s food, manufactured by a “trusted company”, Susan began studying pet foods, pet food ingredients, and the regulations that govern them. In addition to her blog, TruthaboutPetFood.com, she authored Buyer Beware and co-authored Dinner Pawsible. Today, Susan holds positions on two AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials – those that develop pet food regulations) committees – the Pet Food Committee and the Ingredient Definitions Committee. Susan is the ‘Caped Crusader for Safe Pet Food’ and you won’t want to miss what she has to share in our first Live episode.
