The Cone of Shame Veterinary Podcast

341 - IBD Dog Now has Renal Disease (HDYTT)


Listen Later

Dr. Caitlyn Getty, DVM, PhD, DACVIM (Nutrition), is back on the Cone of Shame to tackle a classic hot mess express: the IBD dog who now has early kidney disease. In this “How Do You Treat That?” episode, Dr. Andy Roark presents Murph, a finicky Yorkie with a sensitive gut, a history of GI explosions, and renal values on the rise. The kicker? His current food is working, and his owners are terrified to change it.


Dr. Getty breaks down how to approach cases with conflicting nutritional needs and shares her checklist for diet selection when no one food seems perfect. They dig into the new Hills Canine Multi-Organ diet, why it might be a game-changer for dogs like Murph, and when it might not be the right fit. You’ll walk away with practical tips for food transitions, client communication, and managing complex patients without causing a GI disaster. If you’ve ever had a fragile pup with overlapping conditions and nervous clients clinging to the current food bag for dear life, this one’s for you.


Check out the downloadable team training worksheet and follow along together! Empower your team to educate clients using the notes and discussion questions.
