Not Just About Dogs with Dr. Peter Dobias

Episode 72: Get to Know Your Healer with Catherine Edwards


Listen Later

I’m so excited to sit down with my dear friend Catherine Edwards, a holistic biologist, healer, and podcaster, to explore how we can better support our dogs in today’s challenging world. Together, we open up a real, heart‑to‑heart conversation about the “toxic soup” our animals live in and how to make simple, practical changes that actually feel doable, not overwhelming.

We’ll talk about:

  • How modern toxins (food, water, EMFs, chemicals) affect our dogs’ health and behavior.
  • The core foundations of holistic dog health: real food, clean water, movement, and emotional connection.
  • Zoo pharmacognosy (animal self‑medicating), with powerful real‑life examples of dogs choosing what they need to heal.
  • How to ask better questions at the vet, recognize red flags, and stay empowered as your dog’s guardian.
  • Why spending present, quality time with your animal friend may be one of the most healing “therapies” you can offer.

Along the way, we share stories, mindset shifts, and gentle guidance to help you feel more confident, less guilty, and more deeply connected to your dog’s unique needs.
