😱 A client called after finding a dead bat in their house—and it tested positive for rabies.
This is every veterinarian’s worst-case scenario for an unvaccinated patient. 💔
Luckily, my patient was vaccinated, and that protection likely saved their life.
In this episode of my Tails of Truth Podcast, I share the full story, what happens when pets are exposed to rabies, and why prevention matters.
As a holistic veterinarian, I believe in blending compassion, science, and informed care—because vaccines are part of keeping our pets safe.

💉 Ever wonder why every dog—no matter their size—gets the same dose of the rabies vaccine? 🐾
In this episode of Tails of Truth Podcast, I break down the real reasons behind this controversial topic. From how vaccines are studied (mostly in Beagle colonies) to the ethical considerations of testing on every breed and size—there’s more to it than you might think.
As a holistic veterinarian, I always want you to understand what’s behind the medicine we use to keep our pets safe.
🎧 Tune in to learn more about how vaccine research, safety, and compassion intersect.

Let’s talk about the big debate — when is the right time to spay or neuter your dog?

As a holistic veterinarian, I get this question all the time — and honestly, it’s a complex topic. On one hand, shelter medicine focuses on preventing overpopulation (and saving lives 💕). On the other, we know that delaying spays and neuters until a dog’s growth plates close can support long-term health — protecting joints, hormones, and even reducing certain cancer risks.
That means what’s best for a population of dogs might not always be what’s best for an individual dog. 🐾 It’s a tough balance.

This clip is from my Tails of Truth Podcast, where we dive deep into the controversy around when to spay or neuter your dog — exploring the science, ethics, and how to make the best decision for your pup.

Let’s clear something up about marijuana for dogs — it’s not the vibe your pup wants. 🌿🐾

As a holistic veterinarian, I get tons of questions about the possible benefits marijuana for dogs. I get it — people assume it might help their pup chill out or ease pain. But here’s the thing: dogs have way more THC receptors than humans, which means even a little bit can make them really uncomfortable.

When dogs get into marijuana, they can feel anxious, dizzy, disoriented — it’s not fun for them at all. It’s just not fair to get dogs high. 💚
There are so many safe, natural ways to help with pain, anxiety, or inflammation — but THC isn’t one of them. I love using hemp derived CBD. You can check out my favorite in my bio.
In this episode of the Tails of Truth Podcast, I’m chatting all about marijuana for dogs, what actually happens when they ingest THC, and better holistic options to help your pets feel calm and comfortable.

😿 Your cat isn’t being spiteful — here’s what they’re really trying to tell you when they start pooping outside the litter box.

If your cat is pooping outside the litter box, you’re definitely not alone — and it’s not your cat being “bad.” As a holistic veterinarian (and total cat lover), I see this all the time, and there’s always a reason behind it. 💛
Sometimes, cats poop outside of the litter box due to medical issues like inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) or arthritis, which can make the litter box uncomfortable or even painful to use. Other times, it’s about stress, litter texture, or box setup/location.
The good news? We can fix this together. 🐾 I offer online consultations to help you uncover why your cat is pooping outside the litter box and create a customized, holistic plan to get them feeling better — body, mind, and litter box!

Many pet lovers feel frustrated and dismissed when they can't discuss alternative therapies with their veterinarian. There is a reason that your veterinarian isn't open to discussing holistic and integrative therapies like CBD, herbal medicine, mushrooms, chiropractic care and raw feeding.

If you’re an American like myself, I want to check in and see how you’re feeling in this current climate 👀 🇺🇸.

It’s all feeling like a LOT.

It’s a dumpster fire, am I right?

Here’s what I recommend for this week

⭐️⭐️ Cuddle your pet, people are hard. ⭐️⭐️

I REPEAT…

Your pet is the best thing in this world!

This doesn’t mean that you can’t still stand up for what’s right. It doesn’t mean giving up. All of the world affairs will continue on, and will be around when you can’t cuddle your cat or dog (for better or worse).

However, when everything’s feeling bleak and hard, your pet is the one to turn to. Your cat and dog are always there, always choosing love, and always ready to be your biggest ally.

So, cuddle your pet ❤️❤️❤️.
