Interesting!

Does your dog’s fur have a superpower? 🌿🐾

It sounds strange, but new research suggests there might be more to your dog’s shedding than meets the eye. 👀

What if your dog’s fur could help plants grow faster and greener, while replacing one of the most damaging ingredients in potting soil? ♻️

Or… could there be hidden downsides no one’s considering yet - like chemicals such as flea & tick treatment, safety issues, or impacts on food crops?

Scientists recently tested something surprising, and the results have people excited.…But what they found raises just as many questions as it answers.

Today we’re breaking it all down - the why, the how, and what this could mean for the environment, sustainability, and even your garden - in today’s Inside Scoop. 🌱

✨ Plus in this episode:
• Another surprising look at fur, this time from cats, revealing what might be hiding inside their coats and what it tells us about everyday chemical exposure (like phthalates).
• Dr. Becker shares her go-to detox protocol to help reduce your dog’s or cat’s toxic load.

👉 Join us at 12pm EST in the Inside Scoop to hear the full story and get answers to the questions you’re probably asking right now.

While traditional spaying and neutering can be suitable for many pets, staying informed about emerging research and alternative options is crucial for their long-term health and well-being. As pet owners, we serve as advocates for our animals and have the responsibility to make informed decisions regarding their overall health, any surgeries, vaccinations and diet. I encourage you to do your own research to ensure you make the best decisions tailored for your pet’s individual needs. 

I want to be clear: I am NOT discounting the serious issues we have with dog overpopulation and dog homelessness. I am very grateful to all the dedicated and hardworking people in shelters and rescues.

What I hope for is that we will change the practice of how we prevent unwanted pregnancies in dogs (including those in rescues) so we can prevent the unnecessary disease, suffering and heartbreak caused by the absence of s*x hormones.

O***y Sparing Spay (OSS) and vasectomy are the procedures that can be done in place of the conventional spay and neuter and based on research, they are safer and prevent a whole array of issues.
