“I came back to this podcast to try and give it another go but I just can’t get past the outdated medication misinformation and myth spreading. Recommend when doing an episode outside of your expertise, to bring in an actual expert, so that tired old myths aren’t being trotted out.
Original receipt: I’ve been enjoying most of the podcasts, except for episodes that relate to behavioural medication, where the trainers become incredibly judgemental and spout a lot of aged misinformation about medication being tranquillisers. Then go and recommend owners to self-medicate dogs with “alternatives” rather than involve a vet.
Perhaps if a vet behaviourist had been brought on board to have a discussion on the pros/cons and when it’s appropriate the episode would have been better and informative instead of same old anti-medication propaganda. It’s all very nice to say that training and vets should go hand in hand but then do not even do that for a podcast outside of their area of expertise.
As it is, I had to stop playing the episode when it just kept complaining about vets and my desire to listen to the podcast, follow the social media or buy the book are dead in the water. What other kind of judgemental outdated views are lurking in the background? I like my experts to be continuously learning and this is not it.”
