‘What is the worst pet to face in a Vet Clinic?’ Deb asks. Dr. Fox describes one solution for vet hating cats besides Feliway hormone products and choro treats which can help. A listener describes his cat saying ‘…since she always runs around a bunch and then collapses and sleeps after catnip can I give it to her before the vet to make her sleep in the car and the clinic’? Dr. Fox explains why a good brand of pet food with grain ingredients is ideal. Ever wonder about those long belly short legged dogs where the belly length is greater than the dog’s height? Dr. Fox tells us how you can help them age better all considering. Deborah shares a recipe for peanut butter pumpkin chews on the show and at https://www.facebook.com/debwolfepetexpert/ .
