I know that in the human world, anyone can call themselves a nutritionist. My prof in the nutrition class I took was a board certified dietitian, and she taught us many things from reading labels to who to seek out if we wanted tailored help. A nutritionist is not one that spent time getting a degree. A good comparison is an ethical breeder to a byb. An ethical breeder is like the dietitian, they put in the time first before diving in and giving advice. A nutritionist is more like a byb, it doesn't matter how long they've been doing what they're doing, the foundation of what they're doing is the best.
At least that's what I was taught. Anywho... I didn't know there were also quacks in the dog field. Is there a thing as a certified dog dietitian/nutritionist?
