The Pet Parenting Reset

Psychologist Dr. Chris Blazina has spent nearly 30 years studying the human-animal bond. In his book Good Dogs & Difficult People, he explores why dogs matter so much to us. We talk loneliness, why love is a skill, how dogs read our faces and scent, and one small habit he suggests with your dog: wait 10 seconds.🔗 Dr. Blazina's book & work: https://link.amazon/B00zHLk7g 🔗 Website: https://chrisblazinaphd.com/🐶🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultationsGet to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify

Board-certified vet oncologist Dr. Kendra Pope says cancer isn't an invader, it's a signal. We talk about how long tumors take to form, why breed and genes aren't the whole story, detox capacity, and everyday swaps that may lower your dog's risk.

Raw meat isn’t the same as blood, says Geoff Bowers of Totoniks. We caught up at Super Zoo to talk about why he built a venison blood topper for dogs and cats, what whole blood carries that muscle meat doesn’t, and his take on protein, IGF-1, and keeping nutrients in a natural form.We also get a first look at Blood Buds, his cold-pressed training treats due at the end of October, a peek at what’s coming for cats, and how his products get tested in New Zealand.🐶🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultationsGet to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify

Canned food is a big upgrade from kibble. It's also not where the journey ends. Sabrina Simmons, founder of RAWR – Eat Like a Lion, joins me to talk about why cats are built for raw and how to make the move without a standoff at the food bowl.Then we hit the parts department: organs and secondary cuts add variety to a cat's bowl, and they're the building blocks of DIY raw meals for dogs. 🐶🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultationsGet to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify

Dr. Josie Beug returns to unpack TCVM's Five Elements — the ancient framework behind acupuncture, herbal medicine, and food therapy. We dig into Water, Wood, Fire, Earth, and Metal, why nervous system regulation shapes your dog's behavior more than most people realize, and how bioenergetic testing fits into a truly holistic approach.

You don't have to choose between trusting your vet and trusting your instincts — but figuring out how to hold both at once is harder than anyone tells you. Dr. Katie Kangas — DVM, CVA, CVCP, and founder of Integrative Veterinary Care — returns to The Pet Parenting Reset to talk about the pet parent-veterinarian relationship, and specifically, how to navigate it when you're leaning holistic and your vet is coming from a conventional framework.We get into how to actually bring up alternative approaches without putting your vet on the defensive, why an integrative approach — one that draws from both conventional and holistic tools — often serves the pet better than picking a side entirely, and what it looks like to build a real partnership with your vet instead of an adversarial one. Dr. Katie also tackles the online research problem: with an overwhelming amount of pet health content out there, how do you actually know who to trust, what questions to ask of a source, and when "I read it online" is helpful versus when it's leading you astray.This episode is ultimately about empowerment — not replacing your vet, but becoming the kind of pet parent who can ask better questions, advocate clearly, and build a care team that actually works for your animal.🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠ 

Herbs aren't a weaker version of medicine — they're a different paradigm entirely, and almost nobody explains that better than Greg Tilford. As one of the most respected voices in veterinary herbalism, author of multiple books on the subject, and a driving force behind bringing herbal medicine into mainstream animal care, Greg joins The Pet Parenting Reset to talk about what it actually means for an herb to be anti-pathogenic — working with the body's own terrain to make it inhospitable to illness, rather than carpet-bombing everything the way antibiotics do.We get into how domestication and modern pet life cut dogs and cats off from the plant-seeking instincts their wild ancestors relied on constantly, why whole-plant complexity often outperforms isolated compounds, and how to start building a basic herbal toolkit at home before you actually need one. Greg's approach is rooted in ecology as much as biology — herbalism not just as medicine, but as a relationship with the land itself.If you've ever wondered whether there's a middle ground between "do nothing" and "reach for a prescription," this episode is that middle ground.🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠ 

Feng shui isn't just about furniture placement — it's about energy, and your pet is picking up on it whether you realize it or not. Amanda Gibby Peters, founder of Simple Shui, joins The Pet Parenting Reset to break down what feng shui actually means in practical, non-complicated terms, and why it applies just as much to your dog or cat's wellbeing as your own.We get into how animals are uniquely sensitive to the energy of a space — clutter, chaotic high-traffic zones, stagnant corners — often reacting to it before we consciously notice anything's off. Amanda walks through simple, zero-cost shifts pet parents can make: where a pet's bed sits in a room, how to read whether a space feels calm or chaotic, and why this might be the missing piece for pets who seem anxious or unsettled even when everything else — diet, supplements, routine — is dialed in.This episode is a reminder that ReWilding isn't always about adding something new. Sometimes it's about clearing what's in the way of the energy that's already there. And the best part: this one's completely free.🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠ 

There's a federal deadline coming that could change access to full-spectrum hemp products for pets — and most pet parents have no idea it's happening. I brought Sean Zyer, founder of Earth Buddy, back on the show to break down what's actually going on, because even people paying attention are confused by how fast this has moved.We get into how we got here — the rise of intoxicating, synthetic hemp products sold with zero oversight, and how that created the political pressure now sweeping up naturally-derived, full-spectrum products in the same net. Sean explains the actual legal threshold at stake (0.4 milligrams of THC per container), why the timeline keeps shifting, and why full-spectrum products — the ones built around the entourage effect, where the whole plant works synergistically rather than as an isolated compound — are getting caught in a ban meant for something else entirely.This is a ReWilding conversation at its core: nature built this plant as a whole system, and pulling it apart into isolates was never the goal for the pet parents actually seeing results. We close with what you can actually do right now — who to contact, what to say, and why your voice matters here even if this feels like one more overwhelming thing on an already overwhelming list.🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/collections/consultations⁠ 🐶 Get to the root cause with the Wild Wellness Bioenergetics at-home testing kit: ⁠https://www.wildwellnesspet.com/products/bioenergetic-sensitivity-testing-for-dogs-full-scan-wild-wellness-powered-by-pet-medella⁠ 💛 Follow The Pet Parenting Reset on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/⁠🤍 Follow Wild Wellness Pet on Instagram ⁠https://www.instagram.com/wildwellnesspet/📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: ⁠https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify⁠
