In this week's podcast from East Coast FM, we discuss itchiness, a common summer ailment in pet dogs. From this daily issue for pet owners, we then moved to discuss the appalling situation in China where dogs are boiled alive to be eaten.

From the mundane to the appalling: itchy dogs followed by dog-eating in China

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.
