This week's episode is about choosing the right dog and dog breed for your personal situation. It may seem like a no-brainer, but it's amazing how many times folks visit the animal hospital with problems with their pet, only to find out they have chosen the wrong dog for their lifestyle. Dr. Allen gives some guidance for picking the right dog for you.

Skin is something every pet comes in with. But sometimes, pets get skin problems, caused by a whole variety of reasons, which Dr. Allen will talk about.

Many times, a dog being lame will prompt a visit to the veterinarian. There are some things you can do ahead of time that can really make the visit a lot smoother and help the veterinarian to help identify the specific problem a lot easier.

Dr. Allen gives some tips on how to decrease stress and anxiety on vet visits and more! Many times when pets come to the veterinarian hospital, they're anxious. They're licking their lips, their body language is out-of-sorts, and they're wondering what's going to happen to them. They're encountering all kinds of unusual sights and smells, meeting people they've never been around before, and they're very stressed. This is not fun for the pet, not fun for the owner, and can make a veterinarian's job even harder.
