For whatever the reason may be, some pet owners today are interested in feeding their pets with homemade diets. In this dvm360® interview, Fetch Charlotte faculty member Laura Gaylord, DVM, DACVIM (Nutrition), owner/founder of Whole Pet Provisions, PLLC, describes 3 concerns to discuss with these clients so they can ensure their companion animals receive optimal nutrition.

The following is a partial transcript of the video.

Laura Gaylord, DVM, DACVIM (Nutrition): We're really concerned that that diet could be unbalanced, [or that] it doesn't contain all the nutrition that pet needs. So making sure the pet owner has a properly formulated recipe, and it's really individualized for that pet, for that individual dog. And certainly, if it has a medical condition, we want to make sure it's meeting what we call nutrients of concern for that disease condition.
