About this episode
Prompted by the recent loss of Dale’s beloved dog of 14 years, this episode explores the role animals play in our emotional lives. We sit down with a veterinarian to talk about why pets matter so much to our mental health, what pet grief can teach us, and why the veterinary profession carries such a heavy emotional burden. We also get into a quick-fire round of pet hot takes, from pet insurance to grain-free diets and more.
Dr. Jennifer Vick has 18 years of experience as a Small Animal Veterinarian. Outside the office, Dr. Vick enjoys hiking, gardening, playing violin and piano, and spending time with her rescued dog Stanley.
