"It’s my passion to see those people try again—this time, succeed.
Dogs are dying younger and younger.
This is the only thing that will change those statistics."
~ Nikki Kendal
You wanted to do right by your dog.
You heard kibble wasn’t healthy.
You tried feeding real food — and instead of getting better, your dog got sick.
Maybe it was...
loose stool,
vomiting,
itching,
or your vet told you to “go back to kibble.”
And maybe you did — heartbroken and confused.
That’s where When Fresh Fails™ begins.


Nikki Kendal is the only Certified Professional Canine Nutritionist specializing exclusively in transition and healing from kibble.
While many nutritionists focus on diseases or breeds,
Nikki’s work centers on the moment that matters most — the critical transition from processed food to biologically correct, whole-food nutrition.
After losing Marley and Dreamer, and saving Smitten through real food, she made it her life’s mission to help other Paw Parents avoid the same heartbreak.
Her approach blends compassion, clear science, and simple steps anyone can follow.
Because feeding your dog right shouldn’t require courage — it should just take love and knowledge.
80% of Paw Parents who try to feed fresh end up going back to kibble.
Not because they failed—but because no one prepared them.
When Fresh Fails™ changes that.
When Nikki lost her two beloved doodles, Marley and Dreamer, to kibble toxins
— and nearly lost her youngest, Smitten —
she discovered a truth most Paw Parents never hear:
kibble doesn’t just fail the body; it rewires it.
Saving Smitten through whole, living food became the start of a movement.
And this book is its beating heart —
a guide to help you transition with understanding, not fear.
“This is the book I wish I’d had when I found out kibble killed my dogs.
It’s not about blame — it’s about hope.”
— Nikki Kendal, CPCN
