In this episode, we're joined by our podcast partners in crime: Mark Scott, co-founder of Bella+Duke, and Dr Connor Brady, renowned canine nutritionist and author. Together, we dive into a pressing issue affecting our four-legged friends—obesity in cats and dogs.

Did you know that 59% of dogs and 61% of cats are classified as overweight or obese? Mark and Connor explore how this epidemic is linked to the normalisation of unhealthy body conditions, the role of ultra-processed pet foods, and the stark similarities to human dietary challenges.

Connor delves into the science behind obesity, from the impacts of high-carbohydrate diets to the hormonal havoc caused by insulin and leptin. Mark highlights the importance of real, whole food diets, drawing parallels between nutrient-rich raw feeding and the pitfalls of nutrient-deficient kibble.

Join us as we break down the myths, reveal the dark truths about pet food production, and share actionable advice for keeping your best friends healthy, happy, and in their natural, lean state.

🐾 Let’s tackle this weighty issue—because pets depend on us to make the right choices.

In this episode we sit down with Canine Behaviourist Nikki Mather from Positive Steps Dog Training, and discuss how illness can impact your dogs behaviour.
