Whether you're a pet parent wanting to prevent cancer for your pup or a vet who's seeing cancer patients, you need to listen to this episode. Dr. Kendra, Dr. Trina, and I dive deep into conversations like what is the most effective way to do chemo? Can we heal dogs with mistletoe and vitamin C on their own? And what about ozone therapy? Tune in to learn about personalized, robust, cross-disciplinary approaches to helping pets with cancer thrive.

KEY INSIGHTS:

• How you want to start cancer prevention when your dog’s a puppy.

• Dr Kendra dives into the push-pull chemo strategy.

• The power of herbs and cannabis to support pets with chemo side effects.

• How dogs who are being treated with an integrative approach (western medicine and herbs, acupuncture, and sometimes cannabis) have better outcomes than dogs who only have chemo.

• How a golden retriever puppy went into remission with just mistletoe and vitamin C.

• How every pet needs a personalized approach.

• How for senior pet’s annual cancer screening is not enough, and how you want to teach pet parents to check for lumps at home.

• How we always want to pay attention to a pet’s “weakest link” when it comes to their health.

• How integrative vets and conventional oncologists are allies on the same team.

• And Dr. Trina shares the story of a dog who survived a cancer that’s considered unsurvivable–and what she did to help him.

Is your senior dog slowing down, hesitant to jump, or playing less? Pain might be the culprit. In this episode, fellow integrative vet Dr. Tori and I dive deep into Paw Sha, a pioneering technique she developed by adapting human Gua Sha for dogs. By gently gliding this special flat stone along your dog’s fur, you can smooth out their fascia, relieve pain, and enhance their mobility. Tune in to hear just how powerful combining Paw Sha with acupuncture or nano light acupuncture and laser can be–even as a preventative measure.

KEY INSIGHTS:

• How effective Paw Sha is for pain management.

• How nanolight acupuncture is perfect for pets who don’t like needles.

• Paw Sha is powerful for helping to prevent back issues with breeds like frenchies, dachshunds, and corgis.

• How Paw Sha is something you can do at home for your pup.

• How Paw Sha helps calm your dog’s nervous system.

• And is it always a good idea to numb chronic pain? Or can we do better?
