Recent research has helped us to understand why we speak to animals in "funny" voices, and how much difference it makes to the animals when we do this. To find out more, listen to this podcast.

How do you speak to your dog? Is it for you, or for them? Pete the Vet on East Coast FM

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.
