In this week’s podcast, Jon and Karen talk about how all those training treats could be making your dog fat. Plus, Karen interviews TV vet Emma Milne.
It’s not good for your dog to be overweight. Still, treats are an invaluable part of regular training exercises as they are an excellent way of marking good behaviour. The important thing, as Jon and Karen discuss, is to make sure that you take their calorific content into account alongside your dog’s overall daily intake of food.
Karen also had the chance to talk to TV vet Emma Milne about her work.
Emma, for listeners outside the UK, is a veterinarian, author and appeared in 11 series of Vets in Practice on British television.

Also in this week’s podcast, Karen talks to Gabriella, from Collarways. Collarways are suppliers of the Leuchtie Light up collar which you can find at www.lightupcollar.co.uk – a brilliant idea for dogs, pops easily over their heads, waterproof and lots of different colours so that your dog is nice and safe in the winter darkness.
Collarways are behind this year’s Walk in the Dark, an event that runs between the 20th – 28th October which will be raising money for the Association of Lowland Search & Rescue Dog Teams. Organise a Walk in the Dark for your doggy friends or club, and walk safely together as the dark nights draw in. Remember that Lowland Search Dogs do an amazing job, and this is your chance to sponsor a local team by arranging or joining a walk in your area!
