In this week's podcast, Pete the Vet explains the background to chocolate poisoning: why does it happen, how much chocolate is dangerous, and what should be done if dogs accidentally eat chocolate. Lily poisoning in cats is also discussed: the most common poison to affect pet cats.

Chocolate poisoning in dogs and lily poisoning in cats: podcast from Pete the Vet

I am a veterinary surgeon with a passion for communicating my love of my work through writing, radio,  television and the internet. My mission is to use the media to act as an advocate on behalf of animals.
I am a partner in a busy 4 vet practice in Bray, Co Wicklow, Ireland, but I spend 50% of my working week on media work. 
I've been broadcasting a weekly "vet spot" on my local radio station, East Coast FM, for the past fifteen years, and I'm delighted, through Soundcloud, to now make this weekly animal-related discussion available globally as a podcast.
