The Pet Vet Exchange Podcast Daniella Morgan-Pascualvaca

Holley Truitt joins us to chat about how to best prepare your pet for the vet (before the visit, during the visit, and after the visit!)



They have been a veterinary technician in Austin for eight years and have a special interest in behavior and training. They are advocates of husbandry and veterinary care for all pets, including those who are fearful, anxious, and stressed. 

Ruth Hegarty from Creature Good Dog Training joins us to talk about what it means to have a reactive dog, how to change behavior, and how to support the frazzled pet parents who are working around the clock to help their pets. 

Dr. Melissa Bourgeois from Merck Animal Health joins us to talk about the exciting new launch of a monoclonal antibody gilvetmab that will allow veterinary oncologists to use the checkpoint inhibitor to recognize and fight cancer cells.

In today’s episode, we chat with Natalie Gruchow, an advocate for the emotional well-being of pets from Fear Free. We discuss making big changes in our lives, and how we can reduce the stress of our pets. Think moving, introducing new family members, and everything else that we take for granted but that our babies can’t understand. 

Dr. Shadi Ireifej from VetTriage joins us to talk about trends in the space of veterinary telemedicine and frequently asked questions from pet parents. We chat about where the industry is going and why you should look into finding a telehealth company for your pet. As Dr. Shadi puts it, emergencies never happen at convenient times!

Erin Scott joins us to talk about the Dog Health Journal, which teaches you what behaviors to look for in your dog, and we discuss how to be best prepared for your next veterinary visit.
