Are you meeting all 5 of your pet’s welfare needs—or just the basics?

In this powerful first episode of a two-part series, Amy Castro teams up with renowned UK veterinarian and animal welfare advocate Dr. Emma Milne to explore the often-overlooked foundations of pet care. In this episode, they tackle the first three of the five legally recognized animal welfare needs and how they apply to everyday pet parenting.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

• What “proper nutrition” really means—and why most pet food isn’t enough
• How to prevent pain, illness, and injury through proactive care
• How to create an environment that supports your pet’s physical and emotional wellbeing

Stay tuned for Part 2, where we’ll explore the final two needs: companionship and the ability to express natural behaviors.
