We’re Back! Don’t Miss Tuesday’s Show on Pet Nutrition

Thursday, July 1st, 2010

We’re back from our (much needed!) hiatus and have a slew of great guests lined up for the months ahead.  Joining us this Tuesday, July 6th, at 1pm Pacific time will be Dr. Andrea Fascetti from the University of California at Davis to talk about the role of nutrition in managing and preventing disease in dogs and cats.
     Dr. Fascetti is considered one of the leading veterinary nutritionists in the country and as such has strong opinions about what to feed your pet.  For example, did you know that in most cases it’s in the animal’s best interest to eat a commercially available food?  Or that home-cooked diets, although almost always delivered with the best of intentions, can be harmful to your pet?  Or that there are risks to adding nutritional supplements to a complete and balanced commercial diet? 
     Yeah, neither did I.
     So if you want to learn more about things like “diet drift” and the value of “feeding trials,” then don’t miss our show on July 6th at 1pm Pacific time.  And bring your questions!
