CHILLIN Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 The owner of the very popular Magana restaurant (and book club!) in Riberas is expanding into production of high quality/ high nutrition pet food. It will be sold from a little booth just as you enter the restaurant. He also sells a bio enzyme which I guess improves a pets natural digestion and overall health. He was inspired by this because a family member has a sick cat - which upon his research has convinced him that mainstream commercial pet food was the root of the cat's troubles. I don't know very much else about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarita Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Also very interested! Hard to find good quality pet foods locally. Will have to check it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k2tog Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 We have used the bio enzyme product he sell to help one of our dogs with her digestion problems. We have gotten really great results...so far no painful cramping, gas, or stomach distress or having to visit our vet for pills and/or painful shots. You spray it on the dogs' food every time you feed them. Geoffrey describes it as a pre-biotic and it does not need to refrigerated. We've been using for several months...lots cheaper then vet visits AND it's working for our chihuahua. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Bango Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 I'm so excited to hear this! Going tomorrow first thing to get some! This is great news. Geoffrey is a really good man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xena Posted December 19, 2014 Report Share Posted December 19, 2014 Poe, if you have a chance can you let us know more about these products after talking with Geoffrey? I won't be getting over to the cafe before Christmas and am curious to know more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colo-Rick Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 MaGaÑa opens at Noon. He's usually strict about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xena Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 He is VERY strict about it. I once got there about 10 minutes to 12 with a 75-year-old friend who had on a back brace and was using a cane. The employees said they could not let us in even to just sit down until 12. We left and ate elsewhere that day. I still go there to eat -- just not before noon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MtnMama Posted December 21, 2014 Report Share Posted December 21, 2014 If you are looking for a raw B.A.R.F. diet, ALPHAVET, at the Tuesday Market, sells a wonderful variety of raw meat mixtures. A bit different every week. My very allergic Corgi loves it. Just another option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Bango Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 Geoffrey's refrigerator broke down so he hadn't been able to make the animal food. He's got the ingredients and will be doing it over the holidays. I DID buy the pre-biotic spray (says it's for cats, but it's just as good for dogs). I've only just started spraying it on my pets' food a few days ago, so I can't give you any specific review of it. I'll use it for awhile and give an update in a couple weeks.

MtnMama Posted December 28, 2014 Report Share Posted December 28, 2014 We have one dog with a sometimes delicate tummy. We started giving her a few tablespoons of Keith's Kefir a few times a week. (We both drink it regularly) Kefir contains natural probiotics and has stopped her upset tummy instances completely. The kefir is available at the Tuesday Market, the Grainery and Marlow's. I expect a spray would work as well as long as the little bacterium stay alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't occur to me to give some to my dogs (especially my dog Bean) - doh! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
