The pet industry's dirty secret.In this powerful opening episode, we welcome Dr. Tom Lonsdale - “The Whistleblower Vet” - to pull back the curtain and explain the inner-workings of the Pet Food Industry - an industry he calls “a multi-billion dollar pet food fraud hiding in plain sight ”.He gives you all the deets, spills the tea, and blows the whistle on how manufacturers and vets selectively disregard scientific facts, pushing money-making products and services that cost us billions and, ultimately, our pets their lives.He has called this a "global epidemic " for decades and it has only grown in velocity and magnitude.
