Ask Ariel

Susan can provide you with a unique and new perspective that will complement the care you are receiving from your veterinarian. She is on staff at VCA Arroyo Animal Hospital in Lake Forest, California and also provides nutrition consultations at the Veterinary Cancer Group in Tustin, California.

Susan’s specialty is in teaching clients how to develop homemade diets for their pet’s health condition. She is a strong advocate of using whole, natural foods to nourish and strengthen a pet’s overall health. She will develop a custom-tailored diet for each pet rather than giving a ”canned” recipe, because every pet’s condition is a little bit different.

The breadth of Susan’s knowledge is based upon her experience volunteering her time in animal rescue. She is the founder of Ariel Rescue, a 501(c)(3) public charity dedicated to saving the lives of shelter dogs in impoverished communities. Many of these animals were severely malnourished and sick but Susan saw their potential, and working with local veterinarians, restored them to good health. She saw the power of nutritious foods, holistic pet care, and the benefit of natural supplements in their healing.
