Where can I find a board certified nutritionist for pets? I need advice on my dog’s diet urgently.

I've recently realized that my dog's diet might not be meeting all his nutritional needs, and I'm looking for a board certified nutritionist who specializes in pet health. I've noticed a change in his energy levels and I want to make sure he's getting everything he needs to be healthy and happy. Can you guide me on where to find a reliable nutrition expert for pets?
