We know that moderating physical activity for new Tripawds is important to ensure a quick safe recovery. But how do you tire energetic dogs and keep them stimulated? Well, brain games and food puzzles can be exhausting for dogs, and fun! We learned with Wyatt that Nose Work and Scent Training are great ways to keep dogs engaged and entertained. And today, we have an licensed AKC scent work judge Nancy Almann from TheBrainyCanine.com to tell us all about it.

Tripawd Talk Radio Episode #106: On this show we speak with Dr Rachel Venable about how pet cancer care consulting makes treatment more accessible than ever, for everyone. Dr. Venable is a Board Certified medical oncologist who obtained her veterinary degree from the University of Missouri. She completed her residency at the renowned CSU Flint Animal Cancer Center.

And, she's founded the Pet Cancer Care Consulting service as a way to help pet owners who want to consult with a veterinary oncologist but cannot access one in their area. This means that anyone can consult with a board certified oncologist and their vet to discuss the best treatment plan for their pets with cancer, wherever they are.

Coping with your pet's cancer is challenging enough. With only about 450 boarded veterinary oncologists in the US and Canada, what do you do without access to vet oncology services near you?
