Sophia Barber, Author and Loving Dog Mom

My name is Sophia and I am a dog lover, home cook, and advocate for healthy canine nutrition. I have two furry companions who bring so much joy to my life, and I love nothing more than cooking wholesome, delicious meals for them. I have devoted countless hours to researching and understanding the importance of a balanced diet for dogs, and I am passionate about spreading the word.

In my free time, I love trying out new recipes in the kitchen and watching my pups enjoy every bite. As an avid researcher, I am constantly seeking out new information to ensure my dogs are receiving the best possible nutrition.

I believe that providing our dogs with proper nutrition can not only extend their lives but also greatly enhance their quality of life. That's why I have created a line of homemade dog food cookbooks, filled with delicious and nutritious recipes for your furry friend.
