    Dr. Michael Dym: Homeopathy for Dogs

    Have you heard of homeopathy? Ever wondered what it really is? Bre and Dr. Michael Dym explore its principles, share their experiences, and explain why they choose it for themselves and their loved ones. Contrary to what most assume, homeopathy is not synonymous with holistic care or herbalism, homeopathy is an entirely different system of medicine… energy medicine based on “like cures like,” with remedies selected to match each individual’s unique symptom picture. From puppyhood through chronic illness, this conversation explores Dr. Dym’s approach to care and why he encourages people to learn about homeopathy before the eleventh hour.

    Dr. Judy Jasek: Fear, Viruses & Vaccines - Challenging the Dominant Narrative

    Are viruses really the primary cause of disease? Or have we been taught to view every symptom through the wrong lens? Bre Drake sits down with holistic veterinarian Dr. Judy Jasek for a thought-provoking conversation exploring contagion theory, vaccines, natural immunity, terrain, gut health, and the philosophy of supporting the body instead of suppressing symptoms. This episode challenges long-held assumptions and invites listeners to examine a very different model of health.

    Just Bre: Life on the Road & The Dogs That Changed Everything

    This week, Bre takes a break from guest interviews and shares the story behind Tailswell, the dogs who changed her life, and the path that led her from accounting, photography and design into holistic dog health education. She reflects on grief, regrets, quality of life, raising Pine differently, navigating travel and raw feeding on the road, and why her goal has never been perfection or longevity at all costs but helping dogs live fuller, healthier lives for as long as they’re here.

Together they explore diagnosis, prognosis, pharmaceuticals, fresh food, gentle support, consistency, energy, and the mindset shift from managing disease to supporting health.

    Judy Comer: Less Babying. More Trust. A Different Conversation About Dogs

    Bre Drake sits down with animal behavior specialist and former breeder Judy Comer-Calder, the Devon Dog Lady, for a conversation on what happens when we stop treating dogs like little humans and start understanding them as dogs. Together they explore behavior, leadership, separation anxiety, overstimulation, movement, species-appropriate living, and why so many modern struggles may actually begin in the relationship itself.

    Dr. Judy Jasek: When Your Dog Gets Cancer, A Different Conversation

    Cancer can feel like the scariest word a dog parent hears, but what if diagnosis isn’t the end of the conversation?

    Kay Stewart: Fresh Food, Real Biology, Thriving Dogs

    In this episode of Love Your Dogs, Bre sits down with Kay Stewart of the Feed Real Institute to unpack the truth about canine nutrition, raw feeding, kibble culture, and the anatomy of a carnivore. Kay, lead educator at the Feed Real Institute, is also a Registered Veterinary Technician and Certified Professional Canine Nutritionist with over 40 years of experience in the veterinary field, and has been endorsed by multiple veterinarians and canine nutritionists specifically to teach nutrition courses. Together, they dive into why dogs were never designed to live on ultra-processed food, how veterinary nutrition education is heavily influenced by the pet food industry, the problem with synthetic vitamins and minerals, why dental disease has become normalized in dogs, and how fresh feeding can be far more affordable and approachable than people think. This conversation is packed with practical guidance, foundational biology, and empowering perspective shifts for dog parents looking to feed and support their dogs in a more species-appropriate way.

    Jessica Arrington: Super Fleas, Energetics & Returning Dogs to Nature

    In this episode of the Love Your Dogs podcast, Bre sits down with Jess Arrington of Wild Wellness Pet and the Pet Parenting Reset podcast to explore bioenergetics testing, stress, vitality, flea and tick overwhelm, chronic illness, and the growing disconnect between modern dogs and nature. Together, they discuss energetics versus physiological testing, “super fleas,” cancer susceptibility, raw feeding, nervous system regulation, and why returning to the foundations, like sunlight, movement, real food, and connection, matter more than constantly chasing and stacking supplements, medications, and protocols.
