Joining Anthony for this special episode of VETchat by The Webinar Vet is Sarah Heath, Veterinary Specialist in Behavioural Medicine and Rowena Packer, Animal Behaviour and Welfare Scientist at RVC.


In this episode, Anthony, Sarah and Rowena discuss the influence of the pandemic on our pets. They delve into Rowena's research, some of the future issues that may be a direct result of the pandemic, the difference between the impacts on cats and dogs, and the importance of recognising emotional, physical and cognitive health as a whole. They also have an important conversation on the increase in less-reputable breeders, dog services and designer dogs, and just how vital it is to do your research before buying a puppy.
