YUKI KONNO

I'm a licensed veterinary technician and certified veterinary western herbal medicine practitioner. I've been in veterinary medicine for over 15 years, and I'm passionate about helping pets improve their health through a unique approach that incorporates natural food, herbs, mushrooms, and more! My ultimate goal is to enhance the quality of life for both pets and their owners. Growing up in Japan, I was fortunate to have grandparents who were farmers. They introduced me to the concept of edible "weeds" and the medicinal benefits they offer from a young age. To further my knowledge, I pursued educational degrees in Environmental Science, with a focus on creating a sustainable and healthy environment for humans, animals, and nature.

Transitioning into veterinary medicine was a second career for me, prompted by my beloved soulmate, Willy, who didn't respond well to conventional veterinary treatment. As a result, I delved into both conventional and holistic medicine, firmly believing that both approaches can work together to address various health conditions. I also strongly believe that what we eat and feed our animal companions plays a significant role in their overall well-being. Through natural food therapy, I have successfully assisted numerous pets with chronic issues.

My mission is to provide pet owners with more options and increase awareness of the power of food. Simultaneously, I aim to help owners recognize how they can improve their own health through a natural diet. Drawing on my background as an Environmental scientist, I also educate people on the importance of a sustainable environment in cultivating healthy food and preserving native species.
