This episode explores what it really means to help our dogs live longer, healthier lives—starting with the basics of what they eat and the world they live in. Dr. Kevin Toman shares his perspective as…
I have a confession to make, and I have to be honest, I don't know how this episode is going to land for you.
I struggled with whether I should put it out, whether I shouldn't put it out, and I don't often have to think about that, but I did with today's episode.
And what I have decided is that I'm gonna put the episode out and ask you to stick around to the end because I...
There-- We went over time, first of all.
Uh, so there was one thing at the end of the conversation that I didn't push back on as much as I h- really wanted to, especially after we got off of the call.
So I want to address that at the end of the episode, and I think it also brings up two other topics that are very important that we need to have conversations about.
So today's episode is gonna be a little bit longer, uh, not only because the recording went a little long, but also because I hope you stick with me at the end of the episode so that I can kind of explain my thought process a little bit and some of the things that I hope you take away from the episode and for your pets and in decision-making for your pets moving forward.
So I'm not gonna spend too much more time here at the beginning.
I really want you to stick around to the end so we can talk about this.
