I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Jean Meyer on Thursday, March 28, on her Pet Talk program.  Pet Talk is aired live from 9:00 to 10:00 AM Central time on the second and fourth Thursday of each month on the Withers Broadcasting station AM1310 KOKX.  The station is heard in southeast Iowa, northeast Missouri, and west central Illinois.

Jean and I covered a full agenda, ranging from what prompted me to write the book to how important it is to assemble your “team” once you have a diagnosis of cancer.  You want to make sure that you explore both Western and Eastern modalities, and consider nutrition, massage therapy, and specialists, as needed.  Especially when you are in a hospice care situation, having a team helps ensure that every aspect of your dog’s care is complementary.  The last thing you want is to have a situation where different elements of care compete or interfere with each other.

We then covered diagnosis and treatment briefly, followed by a discussion of the similarities between canine and human hospice care.

I will share the recording as soon as it is available.
