We saw a post on the Animal Referral Hospital’s (Sydney AU) Facebook page asking people what they thought was in a dog’s stomach on an x-ray… some said it was an SD-card from a computer – another thought it might be a bottle of pills… one person was near the mark and said a plastic hose fitting… but it turns out it was much worse than that!

It was a brass hose fitting!... how on earth the dog – an English Mastiff named Apollo actually ate it is amazing in itself.

Brian caught up with Apollo’s mum Nicola Craig and we'll also chat with the surgeon who managed to save Apollo.

Some people call it ‘ooga booga’ – others swear by it… but when a qualified Aussie veterinarian administers both conventional and holistic therapies, it’s worth a few moments to listen to find out more – Dr Barbara Fougere from All Natural Vet in Sydney AU joins us on VETtalk Radio

Given many dogs - particularly smaller breeds - can live to 18+, why do animal shelters find it so hard to adopt a dog out after it passes the 'magical' age of 6yrs and 9months mark?

Dr Jo Sillince from Pets Australia looks at this perplexing question!
