Episode 41: Canine Caregivers - Dr Emily Lucas Of The Whole Hound - Why Would We Choose Medication Over Punishment?

Dr Emily Lucas owns and operates The Whole Hound, a unique service in Sydney because she is both a vet and a trainer. 

Emily is someone that I feel lucky to consider a colleague in this industry, her wealth of knowledge on dogs, dog training and medicine is astounding.

In this episode we talk about behaviour medication. An often controversial topic that we thought we'd make even spicier by asking the question "Why Would We Resort to Medication Before Resorting to Punsihment to Change Behaviour?"

I'll leave that teaser there because this is a topic full of nuance and something we all care deeply about. It was a pleasure to have Emily on the show so jump in, have a listen and give us a like and follow while you're at it.
