If exercise were a supplement, it would be hailed as a wonder drug. Its ability to limit chronic inflammation, optimise musculoskeletal health, and lay a strong foundation for a long life is nothing short of miraculous.
In this excerpt from a free YouTube lecture, I discuss three landmark exercise studies - https://youtu.be/hzya4tGh_Ks
There's a lot of bad advice out there about raising puppies. For instance, have you ever heard someone claim that limiting exercise is actually good for them? As a board certified specialist and an expert in canine skeletal development, this unhealthy myth drives me nuts. The reason it's so frustrating is because it takes the spotlight off the true culprit, overfeeding.

670,000 unwanted stray dogs are euthanised every year. How should the veterinary community respond? To date, our most effective strategy is a worldwide stray dog neutering programme, but is it ethical to neuter a growing puppy before rehoming them?

Board certified veterinary surgeon, Dr Mike Farrell BVetMed CertVA CertSAS DipECVS MRCVS, explains why the current dogma should be questioned.
