episode Dr. Judy Jasek: The Problem with Modern Vet Medicine (and What Dogs Actually Need) cover

Description

In this episode, Are sits down with holistic veterinarian Dr. Judy Jasek, the vet who helped shape how she thinks about dog health after walking through cancer with her own dogs. They get into the uncomfortable reality of modern veterinary medicine… the one-size-fits-all model, the over-reliance on diagnoses, and why so many dogs are stuck in cycles of chronic illness. This is a conversation about stepping outside the system, questioning what we’ve been taught, and starting to look at dogs as individuals again by considering their environment, lifestyle, stress, and overall terrain instead of just managing symptoms. If you’ve ever felt like the conventional approach isn’t adding up… you’re not wrong.

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? In this episode, Bre Drake sits down with holistic veterinarian Dr. Judy Jasek (40+ years in practice) to talk about prevention, environment, movement, nutrition, stress, and supporting the body’s innate ability to adapt and heal. This conversation offers a different lens on cancer care and encourages dog parents to feel informed, empowered, and hopeful.

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.
