Ep 10: A Husky mix named Rana

In this episode, I chat with Dr. Karen Fine, a holistic veterinarian and author of The Other Family Doctor: A Veterinarian Explores What Animals Can Teach Us About Love, Life, And Mortality. We hear the story of Rana (pronounced “Ron-a”), a stray puppy who was brought to Dr. Fine’s clinic in need of medical care. When Dr. Fine met Rana, she knew with absolute certainty that this sweet girl was meant to be in her life. Over the next few years, Rana proved to be a free-spirit who lived her life to the fullest, spending her days swimming and chasing her tail. Even when faced with a terminal cancer diagnosis at 4 years old, Rana remained care-free and joyous. She changed the way Dr. Fine practices veterinary medicine and demonstrates the deep, unconditional love of the human-animal bond.Links: Content warning: this episode deals with pet loss, which may be difficult for some listeners. ASPCA National Pet Loss Hotline (24 hour support): 1-877-474-3310 Homemade meal recipes for dogs and cats: https://balance.it/.
