Services
Food for Fen strives to provide services that match your wishes and budget. While there is no magic wand or "one size fits all" when it comes to optimizing nutrition for the individual dog, we understand that clients are busy, food is complex and a dog's quality of life involves many aspects, including, but not limited to, nutrition.
30 Minute Live Consultation
Not sure what service you need? Have general questions about your dog's diet? A live consultation via Zoom, WhatsApp or Messenger is a great place to start.
Diet Analysis
This service compares a commercial or homemade ration to the nutrient requirements of the individual dog. Recommendations for improving the diet are suggested.
Pack/Kennel Services
This customized service can include diet analysis, commercial food finder, canine athletes and diet formulation for a multi-dog household or kennel.
Commercial Food Finder
This service utilizes nutrition science rather than marketing to find the best commercially available food for the individual dog. Cost per calorie comparisons help owners with budgeting.

Diet Formulation Service
This service provides a fully supported, nutritionally precise homemade diet plan (raw or cooked) for healthy adult dogs, canine athletes and dogs with health conditions. Puppy formulations coming soon.
Webinars and Writing
For breed/training clubs or associations.

Fiona Robertson BA, Cert. ACN
Canine Nutrition Consultant
Fiona specializes in working and sport dog nutrition but is also dedicated to helping pet owners optimize their companion's health and maximize positive outcomes for ill, injured and aging pets through therapeutic dietary intervention. Clients include world team agility dogs, open sheepdog trial winners, running partners, veterinary referrals and beloved pets; all are welcomed.
​
Fiona competes with her own dogs in sheepdog field trials and for many years competed in agility and understands the additional metabolic demands that each type of activity imposes on the dog's body. As part of a multimodal approach, nutrition can play an important role in maximizing physical and cognitive performance in canine athletes participating in a variety of activities.
​
The inspiration for the name "Food for Fen" comes from Fiona's beloved dog Fen, a working border collie who beat her cancer prognosis by three full-quality years. Nutritional intervention with help from a canine nutritionist experienced in cancer support was a big part of Fen's therapy.
​
Food for Fen is located in Canada but services are provided to clients worldwide.
