Big Pet Food went “fresh” in 2025—but is it fresh or just fresh spin? Lauren from Girls Gone Raw joins me to unpack the year: acquisitions, new gently-cooked lines, and the synthetic additives already backfiring in big-box “fresh” foods. We break down what to watch for on labels, how to spot real food vs. marketing, and smarter upgrades you can make today.

Liver support, done right. I sit down with Sean Zyer (Earth Buddy) to unpack glutathione—what it is, why dogs burn through it, and how liposomal delivery actually improves absorption. We cover real-world signs of liver stress (itch/yeast cycles, slow recovery, sensitivities), smart dosing by body weight, and how to stack glutathione with food-first upgrades (bitter greens, clean fats, minerals) for better detox and resilience. You’ll hear sourcing and safety guardrails, when to use daily vs. ...
If your dog is slowing down, stiff after play, or just not moving like they used to, this episode is for you. I sat down with Tvati’s founder and Dr. Katie Kangas to unpack a truly holistic approach to mobility—no band-aids, no hype. We get into what Tvati is, why it’s so simple (hibiscus oil + MCT), how it’s used, and the real-world changes Dr. Kangas is seeing in practice. You’ll learn: What Tvati is & how it works (plain English, not marketing)Who it helps—aging dogs, sport dogs, post-...
Panic helps no one. In this episode, Kara and I rip through the pet emergency mistakes that make things worse—and the integrative, fear-free steps that actually help. When to bolt to the ER vs. hold, how to stabilize and support (pain, calm, electrolytes), what belongs in your go-bag, and the exact questions to fire at the vet. Fast, practical, no fluff... with REAL experiences that Kara recently had during and after her move across the country. Send us a text 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Hea...
If your pet feels worse every time you “detox,” you’re not crazy—you’re skipping the steps that make detox safe. In this episode, Dr. Marlene Siegel lays out a no-BS roadmap so you stop chasing symptoms and start clearing the mess the right way. You’ll learn: Drainage before detox: liver, lymph, gut—what to open first (and how to know it’s open)Common mistakes that backfire: pushing binders too fast, ignoring minerals, missing bile flowDaily low-effort wins: food upgrades, bitters, hydration/...
In this episode, I sit down with Jason Donas of Venjenz to break down what it really means to heal dogs naturally—beyond kibble, quick fixes, and symptom-chasing. We get into transfer factors (what they are and how they support immune intelligence), gut health as the control center, and where targeted detox support (including zeolite) can fit into a real-food lifestyle. We also talk openly about the failures of the conventional system, when meds make things worse, and how to build a practical...
Stop guessing. In this solo episode, I introduce Wild Wellness Pet and our bioresonance hair + saliva kits—a root-cause scan for dogs stuck in the itch–gut–allergy loop. I’ll break down what the test actually reads (food/environment sensitivities, microbial + toxin stress, nutrient imbalances), and why this approach saves you time, money, and your sanity. If you’re ready to move from symptoms to source, this is your roadmap. Send us a text 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: https:/...
Holistic vet Dr. Kristi Wilson shares her path from cancer survivor to TCVM practitioner—and how that journey reshaped her approach to animal care. We unpack bioresonance in plain English, what it adds to a whole-pet workup, and how she builds individualized vaccine plans (including titer testing and timing). Expect practical takeaways you can use with your own vet team: food therapy basics, nervous-system calming, and red flags that warrant a different plan. Grounded, clear, and action-focus...
Homemade or commercial—if you’re not meeting energy needs, you’re starving the micros. Vet Dr. Susan Recker breaks down energy requirements, why “feeding less than the bag” makes synthetic-balanced foods micronutrient-deficient, and how to fix DIY diets with Animal Diet Formulator (ADF). We cover common homemade pitfalls (iodine, manganese, vitamin E, choline, zinc), a simple vet checklist, and practical targets for balanced raw or cooked meals.

Real enrichment without the guilt. West Paw’s Spencer Williams breaks down how to choose safe, sustainable, made-in-USA dog toys that actually work—Toppl, Qwizl, Seaflex, recycling/take-back, and freeze-food setups that calm energy, curb boredom, and protect the planet. As well as their commitment to sustainability and regenerative agriculture, something we absolutely love!

Your dog mirrors you. Kyle Kittleson explains how your stress shapes your dog’s behavior—and exactly how to fix it.

Itch, gut, allergies—stop guessing.

ER-vet-turned-integrative healer Dr. Barrie Sands bridges science and spirituality—showing how HRV, HeartMath coherence, and outcome tracking make “woo” measurable in real pets.

Actionable, grounded, and data-aware. Send us a text 🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections...
This is NOT political. This is about our food, our water, and access to nature and natural remedies. I've been trying to contain my thoughts and emotions for nearly two weeks now, and the best I can come up with is a sadness for humanity accompanied by hope. To keep that hope alive, we have to speak up. No more silencing ourselves. Food, water, medicine ... these are NOT political. They should not be political.

I've started asking guests of the podcast what holistic means to them and I've gotten some interesting answers because we all have a but of a different viewpoint and understanding of what it means. There are certainly biases around how far down the rabbit hole we've gone and what we've experienced in our lives. So this year at Super Zoo, I decided to ask the people I spoke with what holistic means to them. I love the compilation that I was able to put together for you! Plus, I decided t...

In this episode, I give you the inside scoop from the AAFCO 2025 meeting. Short story: the rulebook is shifting, the FDA–AAFCO MOU is dissolving, and pet food labeling is still a maze built for manufacturers—not consumers. I break down what that shake-up actually means for your dog’s bowl—who writes the definitions, who enforces them, and where transparency falls apart. I also call out the elephant in the room: there aren’t enough consumer voices at these tables. If we want cleaner sourcing, ...
On this fiery episode of The Pet Parenting Reset, I sit down with B.C. Henschen and Dr. Cathy Alinovi as they go head-to-head on pet food safety.
