Wonderfully Informative

This is an excellent podcast for anyone who has pets! You can tell Dr Voulgaris really cares about all animals and helping them live their absolute best lives. I learned so much about arthritis and anxiety/stress and things I can do to keep my dog happy, healthy and pain free well into his senior years. I look forward to future episodes!
