Maria Ringo

Co-Founder and Director of Healthcare For Carna4

Maria Ringo started in the pet industry over 35 years ago. Very similar to Angela, Maria went on the hunt for a good and natural food product for her dogs and couldn’t find one. Along with her business partner at the time, Maria ended up creating the dog food she wanted for her own pets. Even though she sold that company, over 35 years later, Maria continues to educate, sell, and push natural whole foods for our pets and ourselves. Maria then moved back to Canada to become a Homeopathic Physician in her private practice. Maria graduated from Ontario College of Homeopathy Medicine with honors in both Homeopathy and Science. She is a member of the Faculty of the Ontario College of Homeopathic Medicine and a licensed member of the College of Homeopaths Ontario, a past-President of the Ontario Homeopath Association, and is also the Co-Founder and Director of Healthcare for Carna4.
