Great conversation! Low stress handling techniques are getting more popular here in Brazil. I agree that’s a more honest label than fear free.
Love this conversation. As a breeder, I have to say behavior starts in the whelping box and matching breeding pairs for sound temperament. To your point, it begins in the home with informed owners. Thank you for ongoing educational opportunities.
Very interesting to see the point of view of a veterinarian. Thank you for always bring up so valuable information.
Great podcast! I've had a similar but opposing problem with vets where I took my 8 month old pup in for treatment for a eye infection from a cat scratch, I booked the appropriate time of day, he was fed and rested and worn out after a play session - nice and calm. Then the vet greeted him in the room by getting him with a high pitched voice, pets and excitement which got the pup excited and she was unable to get a good look at the eye and made it out that it was the dogs fault. Not saying that her job wouldve been any easier without the excitement because he was in a lot of pain, but I was very disappointed. I would expect a vet to know not to get a dog into play-Mode when doing an examination, especially as something as delicate and invasive as the eye
Excellent podcast, Ivan! I would urge you to get Dr. Michelle Kutzler on the podcast. She is one of the leading veterinary surgical teachers in the United States, who has openly stated that neuters and spays are in fact “harmful” to our pets and had a goal of teaching hormone sparing techniques. I think this topic would be perfect for your podcast and for those of us serious pet owners, one worth diving into.
Agreed! It's too bad many vets don't do these procedures or advocate for them. Ligation is pricey!
As a person that doesn’t neuter or spay my dogs for health reason…one has to keep in mind that hormone sparing procedures, especially in males, will still leave the interest for procreation intact. Meaning… your male will still go ape sh*t when smelling a female in heat. And a female may jump a fence to get to a male miles away.
Awesome opinion from a very knowledgeable & realistic vet! I’m here in PA too & so glad he called out Greenfield puppy mills Lancaster PA! I’m a volunteer MAD rescue & we’re seeing an influx of these dogs with bad genetics; missing ears, aggression, etc. It would be amazing if you could do a PSA/FB post/ podcast to dissuade people from getting Malinois/Dutchies & other working breeds unless people have researched them & are willing to put the time & commitment they require. The shelters & rescues are so overwhelmed with these gorgeous animals because people see movies & videos & think they’re cool. I have an IGP Malinois- I know the time it takes. Please share your influence to educate more people that these dogs are not for everyone. Appreciate your consideration 🐾
Lamont Morgan of la potenza cane corso would be a great guest for use corso folks
Would be good to hear the corso breeder and trainer talk to the malinois breeder trainer
I understand they both train other breeds also
Great point by the vet. Many successful dog trainers have a skewed view of dog owners not realizing the vast majority who need help the most would never even consider hiring a trainer and don’t even realize they need help.
How about leaving their endocrine system unmutilated? ?????
'Playing vets' was a great game to play when we had a senior and a puppy. Really good for the pup to wait its turn and senior dog could show the behaviour first- checking teeth, looking in ears, etc. nice activity for a rainy day and low impact for an oldie. Miss my old boy just remembering it. Always a legend at the vets. Great podcast as always Ivan- thank you.
I love the podcast episode and love this podcast even more, more please always more😂
So simple, let the owner calm down and don’t approach the dog incorrectly yet I see so many vets do the opposite it’s really ridiculous.
Very interesting to get the POV of a vet. If he comes back on again, please can you ask him what he thinks about the whole idea of spaying and neutering in the first place. Maybe have an idea of why we alter the natural state of the animal in the first place. I have read that there is no real impact on the number of unplanned litters (primary reason for spay/neuter) where there are spayed or non-spayed animals. I would love to know more about that and the nexus of why we alter the animals chemistry in the first place if there is not an evident impact on unplanned litters. Again, I am not sure of the data, it is something I have come across numberous times.
You can thank Bob Barker and the humanes society for the spay and neuter propaganda. The whole prevent shelter overcrowding is where it started. However look at the numbers most those animals are from purposeful back yard breeding.
@@Lil_Kumquatexactly! And I would add pet stores selling puppy mill puppies are an ongoing disaster.
Would you be interested in having Bart Bellon on your podcast? My understanding is you have your critiques of nepopo training and would like to see you two talk
In Germany it is against the law to castrate or de-sex a dog. You would need a valid medical reason for doing so.
Omg thanks for this. This was so good ❤ keep up the good work.
1:06:44 is my experience of dairy cow (15 years) saying that if i try to get a cow to stop producing milk, i start with stop give pellets (high energy feed) and give her hay instead of high energy alfalfa and milk her intermittent schedule like once every 24 hours for a few days and then less and less and then stop all together. But i am not super experienced of this specific thing. But search out info from highly educated people from dairy cow industry.
Ivan you should watch the 4 hour Rogan podcast Terrance Howard/Eric Weinstein for Eric’s 5 minute diatribe on “peer reviewed”. It’s amazing. Peer reviewed is bullshit. Science has become bullshit.
I hear Ivan is coming to the UK?
Is there dates and events planned?
He is I’ve booked on.
B’ham Jan 17th, 18th & 19th 2025 🥳
Can dogs on kibble be overeating because they are not getting what they need from that garbage? My dog on a raw diet self regulates and is never overweight.
