That would be me. An animal lover and owner all my life, I spent years as a foster parent for a national rescue group and as a volunteer at my local Humane League. Several years ago, I began researching and using natural health care methods to treat both my pets and my family. I have worked with holistic vets to develop and provide custom homeopathic and Bach Flower Essence blends for their clients. I am the author of all the material on this web site (with the exception of quoted articles and studies), and I maintain and update the site myself.

My partner, Don, is the reason Pets By Nature got off the drawing board and into production. Don has a successful history in sales and as a long-time Lancaster business owner. His marketing and logistics skills helped me nail down all those nasty details such as packaging, labeling, shipping, and promotion. Don takes care of getting Pets By Nature into trade shows, catalogs, magazines, and boutiques. Without him, I would still be sitting around my living room with a great idea and nothing to show for it.

Betty owned a successful bakery in Lancaster, PA for more than a decade. For years you could see her making hand-rolled pretzels and muffins to sell at Lancaster's Central Market. Now Betty spends her time with raw liver baking our Pets By Nature treats. A whiz in the kitchen, Betty is trying out some new recipes and will soon be adding some great new flavors to our line of natural dog treats.
