There's a class action lawsuit against Hill's Pet Food.
Thousands of pet parents are reporting illness and worse associated with Purina and other kibble brands. No recall (yet).
Meanwhile, a single complaint (albeit valid) stokes a recall from a small raw food company.

What the &*!k is going on with pet food?!

B.C. Henschen joins me to talk about the behind the scenes of things we haven't yet thought of in these cases. And more comments on the insidious nature of AAFCO and regulation.

Have you ever considered a board & train facility for your dog? Or know someone who has?

Someone recently reached out to me about dog training, asking if I could recommend a board & train facility. I was as pleasant as I know how to be and just said that I do not recommend board & train but could help them otherwise. They didn't take me up on the offer, which is fine ... but it did spark the topic for today's episode!

Parvo is 91% fatal if left untreated. Traditional treatment consists of round the clock intensive care, antibiotics, and fluids, ranging from $3000 - $8000. 

Even with treatment, the fatality rate is around 35%. There's an ancient treatment that helps decrease this fatality rate to around 22%.

And a new treatment that, although only has a small study so far, has a 100% survival rate and decreases the treatment period from 1 week to 1 day.

What is it? You'll want to know so that you can ask your vet about it!
