Widely recognised as The Dog Health Guy, Phivo is an Australian canine-health educator, entrepreneur, speaker, advocate and co-organiser of Canine Masters, one of Australia's leading dog-health education events.

Phivo developed a deep love for animals from an early age. That passion would eventually become a lifelong mission to challenge conventional thinking, ask difficult questions, and help people make more informed decisions about the health and wellbeing of their dogs.

His journey into canine health began in 2010 with a Boxer puppy named Augustine. Faced with questions that many people encounter, Phivo found himself increasingly dissatisfied with the quality of commercial pet foods and the lack of discussion surrounding nutrition, prevention and long-term health. What began as a personal search for answers soon evolved into a full-time obsession with canine nutrition, natural health and disease prevention.
