#42 Dr. Janet Roark rightly calls herself the Essential Oil Vet.Newly graduated from vet school, she found herself in a deeply stressed state.Migraine headaches, classified by the allopaths as “ice pick migraines” (ouch!) forced her to take time off she didn’t want to take.Newly graduated, in a new practice, new work load, and chronic migraines accompanied with depression that drugs weren’t helping — what was she to do?One day, she found herself without drugs, suffering a crushing migraine, a...
#41 Dr. Rob Silver has worn many hats in his holistic career, most obviously as a practicing veterinarian of four decades, but also as an author, a CBD/cannabis expert, a supplement formulator, and lately, as a medicinal mushroom expert.Join us as we discuss the vast kingdom of mushrooms and some of their amazing health properties.Rob saw early successes with cases of cancer, but discovered by further study that mushrooms are far from a “one trick pony.”From their calming influence, to curing...
#40: Against a backdrop of an admittedly wild couple of years with COVID-19, lockdowns, masking, vaccines rushed to market, and statistics that have been shown to be wildly manipulated, perhaps one of the most confusing things are self-proclaimed experts who proclaim confidently that viruses simply don’t exist.Now that I’ve had no less than three listeners wonder if that claim has any basis in fact, I think it’s time we looked more deeply into it.As one of the most fascinating diseases I’m fa...
Vital Pet Health CEO, Jason Donas joins me to give us some big news in product development.It seems my friends in Vital Animal’s “sister company” have been busy reformulating to make your animal’s immune support and detox options really amazing.Jason explains the process of micronization and why it takes an expensive machine to accomplish it. Far more than mere filtering, this process makes your pet’s supplements instantly available and fully absorbed.Practically speaking, that translates to ...
Fire Your Vet!

Fire Your Vet!

2021-10-0520:45

#039 When your vet pushes you into procedures you don’t want that are more risk than benefit, it’s time to FIRE him!Join me as I share a real life story (one of far too many I have) about a woman being held hostage by her vet. She was being told she had to revaccinate her already vaccinated dog in order to get insulin for this same dog. Scout’s had diabetes for 4 years…Learn why I recommend firing this vet, why more vaccines for this dog would be malpractice, and what you can do to get your n...
#037 As a homeopathic vet, I’m always puzzled when people ask if it’s safe to use homeopathic remedies after their animal has been given drugs or, in this case, vaccines.I’m really not sure what’s going through their heads in this, as the reality is there’s no safer medicine I’m aware of than these ultra diluted remedies.It’s the drugs or vaccinations I’m concerned about safety on!This episode grew out of such questions and I share with you some of the details of how remedies are made and how...
#036 Are regular blood tests on your animal giving you a false sense of security?Might there be better ways to suss out your animal’s health status?Tune in to hear how a homeopathic vet thinks about these tests and even better, suggests something that’s even more powerful. And costs nothing out of pocket!These freebies were here long before we got all fancy with measuring blood, taking radiographs and doing MRIs or ultrasounds.These “measures” are really at the heart of our survival as a spec...
#035 I think it’s appropriate to say there is no more important place to be clear about what you want than in health care. If you allow yourself or your animal to just blindly take what ever a doctor recommends, trouble will ensue. I guarantee it.This episode was inspired by a listener who knew she didn’t want vaccines for her pup. She’d already seen vaccine damage in her two children, but when she sought out holistic vets, she asked them if they vaccinated.They did.And Alesha felt stuck at t...
#034 Titer clinic: Lisa Rosamino is ready to start one now that COVID-19 pressures are letting up for her pet food buying club.She learned about titers from Dr. John Robb and me but wanted to make it easier for her many pet food customers to get that testing done easily and affordably.If your local vet has either refused to do titer testing or made them prohibitively expensive, you’ve got options. Recent reports from listeners that some vets are even refusing to draw blood for you to get a ti...
Skin! It's alive!

Skin! It's alive!

#033 The skin. Who knew your Sadie’s outer protective layer was intimately associated with her immune system?And when you shampoo her lovely skin, you are actually impairing Sadie’s immune system?Oh oh.We live in a world of “germophobia” (fear of germs), but the bottom line is, we all benefit from having healthy skin microbiomes! All those alcohol wipes and repeated washings with soap or shampoo do is mess up Mom Nature’s well-tested plans to keep us all healthy!Join me and homeopath Julie An...
#032 I first heard of Wondercide when CEO Stephanie Boone sat with me in my Austin clinic over a decade ago and explained her amazing cedar oil based products to me. Using cedar, a ubiquitous “pest species” tree all over Texas that was being cleared and burned regularly to repel and kill fleas and ticks?It sounded like a win win.Tune in to hear how the poisoning of her own dog Luna started Stephanie’s drive to bring a better form of pest control to the world of dogs and cats and their people....
#031 The more we learn about the microbiome, that vast collection of bacteria, yeast, viruses (and even small parasites) that make up our gut and that of our animals, the more important we see it is.It affects our brains and behavior. It affects our hormones. It affects immunity, digestion and nutrition, and probably a whole lot more.I invited Dr. Odette Suter, a holistic vet colleague who’s been doing FMT (poop “transplants” or fecal microbiota transplants) in many of her patients to good ef...
#030 We were taught in vet school that “one size fits all” when it comes to vaccination: a Great Dane and a Chihuahua both get a 1 cc dose of the vaccine. There was some vague explanation that the “antigenic load” was all the mattered, and big animals and small ones needed the same amount of challenging substance injected.This is what a past client was told recently when he asked for a smaller dose of rabies vaccine to be given to his 9 lb dog. His reaction (like mine should have been as a ve...
#029 Are you unknowingly causing illness in your animals in the name of prevention?This week’s episode was inspired by Sarah, who commented that her young Golden Doodle had just gotten sick for the second month in a row and she’s now wondering if she unwittingly caused the bloody diarrhea and vomiting by giving her pup heartworm prevention.Join me for an enlightening discussion on not only heartworm but prevention in general.Could your good intentions be paving the road to a hellish state of ...
#028 Some things are time sensitive, but biology rarely follows the calendar, especially when we speak of immunity in you or your animals.Does immunity slowly “empty out,” like a gas tank, and need “refilling” at a year or three?Listen in as I give you the info you need to see through the marketing that is often masked as “Your pet is DUE for xyz vaccines! Make your appointment today!”Inspired, as is much of my world, by questions I get from you, my listeners. Maggie is a 14 year old dog, ado...
#027 My guest is Zac Pilossoph, DVM, who’s wearing several hats these days but I asked him on to share his knowledge about cannabis and its application in pet health. His curiosity about this plant has lead him to take advantage of repeated educational opportunities so that he can help champion its use for your animals.What are cannabinoids, the compounds we are hearing so much about that are present in this plant?And why does every animal with a spine, us included, have a widely distri...
#026 My guest this week is Julie Anne Lee, homeopath and owner of the Adored Beast Apothecary.Her origin story itself is seriously inspiring. Julie felt the connection to animals from a very young age, and wanted to help them. After some years of searching, she realized her vet tech work wasn’t her best foot forward. When homeopathy cured her of a difficult illness quickly (and in a foreign country, to boot), she knew immediately that was what she wanted to offer the animal world.But, she cho...
#025 My guest this week is your best friend if you buy commercial pet food of any kind. Susan Thixton came to her calling as crusader for quality pet food many years ago when her vet told her her healthy dog died of bone cancer from a commonly used pet food preservative.She’s learned so much since then and shares it regularly with interested consumers with pets to feed via her website and newsletter. And believe me when I tell you, the world of Big Pet Food is “buyer beware!”Her work has incl...
#024 Most vets and “single species doctors” grossly misunderstand what symptoms are, how they are extremely valuable, and how cure is defined.That means that, unless you are smarter than your vet and choose carefully who gets to be your trusted health care provider, your animals are likely to become less and less healthy the longer they partake in “modern medicine.”Listen along with Dr. Falconer as he explains why symptoms are critically important to understand and hugely useful in getting an...
#023 I interviewed Dr. Andrea Tasi to learn more about how cats have been “talking” to all of us over the years.We explored how this amazing semi-wild species is perhaps the most sensitive one we see regularly, whether you are a veterinarian or not. Dr. Tasi has made a similar metaphor as I:Cats are humanity’s “canary in the coal mine.”I’ve written about them in this context over many years. The more they take part in conventional medicine, often in the name of prevention, the sicker they bec...
