With the help of Dr. Margo Roman we called on our inner lion for courage to speak on some controversial issues that are often swept under the carpet. We learn that it all starts with a healthy microbiome but how we care for our pets microbiome is imperative in keeping our pets at their best. We discuss a myriad of alternative ways to address flea treatment, skin issues, dental issues, prevent heart worm, and many other health issues. Basically how to set your pet up for success not failure in more conscientious ways than are commercially discussed.  Finding Dr. Margo Roman: Website: www.mashvet.com Resources discussed in this episode: The American Holistic Veterinarian Medical Association www.ahvma.org The Q&A prize winner is: Linda Devita & Susie Shadley Congrats!
