Welcome listeners and friends to Episode 46 of the Two Vets Talk Pets Podcast, where too much talking of pets is barely enough. This episode is proudly supported by Zylkene from Vetquinol - a safe way to help your dog or cat that may be stressed or have a mild anxiety - safe in the young, the old, the big and the small. Talk to your vet about whether it might be a great option for your pet. Or just talk to your vet. Ask them how they are going. What they had for dinner last night. Whether they like kittens. Of course they'd like kittens... This episode is also supported by Prime 100 Pet foods - Australian made, Single Protein source diets for dogs and cats!

Robbie this week shares the email he received for a semi major role in a new animated feature film, and having a run at the Two Bays Trail Run, and then his Mum's 60th Birthday, where his dad just about got into an Alpaca incident. Then, it is time to go back to Lewis's wheel house and get stuck right into a second week of... DOMINANCE! Are dogs pack animals? Why is punishment not useful? Why won't dog's come when called? Growling on the bed? Stealing objects? Aggressive Puppies at the vet? Pulling on the lead? Aggression around the food bowl? Feeding the people before the dog? Walking through doorways first? Should nurses try and hide the chocolates from the vets? (Or at least from Robbie?) This second part of our big Dominance topic will be sure to start some great debate!
