Off Leash with Dr. Pete

Candy Companies Make Dog Food?

Dr. Pete and Molly talk about something not a lot of people realize, that your dog food is being made by a company that’s known for candy. If you look up who owns most of the dog food companies out there, you’ll find they aren’t being made by veterinarians and people that work with animals. They’re likely being produced and delivered by a company that’s more versed in the candy world. Is that who you want dictating your dog’s diet? We also talk about broken dog tails and when it’s just a sprain as well as some other information important to the safety and well-being of your best friends!

Nasty but Necessary: Anal Glands

This week we wanted to talk about a nasty but necessary topic: dog anal glands.
