Most pet owners think they’re doing the right thing… but many are unknowingly harming their dog’s health.

In episode 16 of the Pet To Pal Podcast, Matt Maltese of Pet To Pal Dog Training in Toronto sits down with veterinarian Dr. Lindsay Butzer, DVM ​⁠ to break down what’s really happening inside the veterinary industry; from rising costs and burnout to the biggest pet care myths spreading online.

We cover:

• The truth about vet pricing and why costs keep rising

• The mental and emotional toll of being a veterinarian (and why burnout is so high)

• Raw diets, dog weight, and spay/neuter debates - what’s actually backed by science

• The biggest mistakes dog owners make with puppies and socialization

• How trainers and vets can work together to prevent behavioral and medical issues

• The reality behind corporate vet care and pet food misconceptions

• Tough conversations around euthanasia, adoption, and breeding

This is one of the most honest conversations you’ll hear about the modern pet industry - whether you’re a dog owner, trainer, or aspiring vet.
