The companionship of animals brings many benefits to humans: listen to this short podcast to find out more. Also, what's going on with the sale of dogs in pet shops in the UK and California?

How the companionship of animals can help humans, plus new controls on the sale of dogs in pet shops

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.
