This week, we discuss a range of pet queries, from excessive panting to high blood pressure to the risks of eating slugs and snails to parasite control in cats that eat small prey.

10 min podcast: dogs stressed after kennels,  dogs licking paws  & doggy dementia

I am a veterinary surgeon with a passion for communicating my love of my work through writing, radio,  television and the internet. My mission is to use the media to act as an advocate on behalf of animals.
I work in a busy 5 vet practice in Bray, Co Wicklow, Ireland, but I spend 50% of my working week on media work. 
I've been broadcasting a weekly "vet spot" on my local radio station, East Coast FM, for the past thirty years, and I'm delighted, through Soundcloud, to now make this weekly animal-related discussion available globally as a podcast.
