  1. Human-Animal Bond: What Dogs Teach Us About Love

    Episode 274

    Show notes

    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/consultations

  4. Blood for Dogs & Cats? Geoff Bowers Explains Totoniks

    Episode 271

    Show notes

    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.

  5. Raw Cat Food 101: Why Canned Isn't the Finish Line

    Episode 270

    Show notes

    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.

  6. The Five Elements: TCVM's Map for Pet Health

    Episode 269

    Show notes

    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. This is TCVM made practical, not just philosophical.

  7. How to Talk to Your Vet When You Want to Go Holistic (Dr. Katie Kangas)

    Episode 268

    Show notes

    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.

  8. Anti-Pathogenic, Not Antibiotic: Greg Tilford on Herbal Medicine for Pets

    Episode 267

    Show notes

    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.

  9. Feng Shui for Pets: The Free Energy Fix Your Home Is Missing

    Episode 204

    Show notes

    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.

  10. The Federal Hemp Ban Explained: What It Means for Your Pet's CBD (2026 Update)

    Episode 265

    Show notes

    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.

  11. KetoNatural vs. Hill's: The DCM Lawsuit Update You Need to Hear

    Episode 264

    Show notes

    Big Pet Food is having a moment — and not exactly a flattering one. In this solo episode, I break down two connected stories: Hill's, Royal Canin, and Blue Buffalo all rolling out fresh/refrigerated food lines this year, and the latest development in the ongoing lawsuit between KetoNatural Pet Foods and Hill's Pet Nutrition over the grain-free DCM scare.

    I walk through what's actually in these new "fresh" formats from the big brands (spoiler: better hydration, same underlying formulation issues as kibble), and why the timing isn't a coincidence — market share has been steadily shifting toward fresh and raw feeding for years. Then we get into the lawsuit itself: KetoNatural's allegations that Hill's intentionally manufactured the DCM-grain-free connection to win back market share lost to grain-free competitors, and where the case actually stands now that a federal appellate court has revived part of it.

    I share what I found in the original filing, what's actually moving forward legally versus what's still just alleged, and why — regardless of how the case plays out — the formulation and ingredients tell you everything you need to know right now. We close it out by tying it back to ReWilding: even the "best" commercial option is still working inside a flawed system, and there's always room to add wild, real elements to the bowl.

  12. The Truth About Seed Oils: Are They Secretly Harming Your Pet?

    Episode 263

    Show notes

    Cherie Calbom — "The Juice Lady," bestselling nutrition author, and co-author of the new book The Truth About Seed Oils — joins me to break down exactly what's in that bottle of "vegetable oil" and why it's not what the name implies. We trace seed oils back to their actual origin (machine lubricant, not food) and how they ended up marketed as heart-healthy after WWII shortages pushed them into the food supply. Cherie explains the two-fold problem: the industrial processing (500°F heat, hexane extraction, deodorizing, bleaching) and the omega-6 to omega-3 imbalance it creates in the body — and in our pets, where AAFCO doesn't even regulate that ratio, so most kibble runs closer to 30:1 instead of the 4:1 we should be aiming for.

    Note: in the video I say 40:1, the correct figure is 30:1

    We get into what Cherie feeds her own dog Winston, how to read a label without a chemistry degree, the actual smoke-point science behind cooking oil choices, and a genuinely surprising study on whole eggs and Alzheimer's risk that applies just as much to your dog's brain health as your own. If you've been meaning to clean out your pantry (and your pet's food bag), this is your sign.

  13. Homeopathy 101 for Pet Parents: Does It Actually Work?

    Episode 262

    Show notes

    Is homeopathy actually legitimate, or is it just expensive water? Dr. Katie Kangas — DVM, CVA, CVCP, and founder of Integrative Veterinary Care in San Diego — joins The Pet Parenting Reset to demystify one of the most misunderstood corners of holistic pet care.

    We get into what homeopathy actually is (hint: it's not the same thing as herbalism, and it's definitely not "just placebo"), how highly diluted remedies are supposed to work, and where they fit alongside — not instead of — the rest of your pet's care. Dr. Katie also walks through her own line, Dr. Katie's Remedies, and the thinking behind specific blends for things like seasonal sensitivity and everyday wellness support.

    If you've heard the word "homeopathic" thrown around and never quite understood it, or you've been skeptical and want a straight answer from an actual vet, this episode is your permission slip to get curious.

    Dr. Katie's Remedies are available now at Wild Wellness Pet.

    Episode 261

    Show notes

    Sound Healing for Dogs: Fascia, Tuning Forks & Natural Mobility

    Your dog's stiffness, limping, or "getting old" symptoms might not be what you think. Dr. Laurie McCauley — DVM, board-certified in Canine Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation, and the vet who designed the first underwater treadmill for dogs — joins The Pet Parenting Reset to talk about fascia: the connective tissue web wrapped around every muscle, nerve, and organ in your dog's body, and the thing almost nobody is checking when your dog "just isn't moving right."

    We dig into what fascia actually does, how restriction shows up as pain and limited mobility, and how tools as simple as a 128Hz tuning fork can release it — no needles, no drugs, no guesswork. Dr. Laurie has spent decades pioneering natural rehabilitation for animals, and this conversation is a masterclass in reading your dog's body instead of just reacting to symptoms.

    If you've been told "it's just arthritis" or "it's just age" one too many times, this episode is your ReWilding wake-up call.

  15. ReWilding Your Pet’s Health: How The Pet Parenting Reset Is Evolving with Wild Wellness

    Episode 260

    Show notes

    ReWilding your pet’s health starts with ReWilding you as a guardian.

    In this special solo episode of The Pet Parenting Reset, Jess pulls back the curtain on how the show is evolving as she leans fully into the Wild Wellness ReWilding model. You’ll hear why the old, conventional approach to pet “health” is failing so many animals, and how a return to nature—through species‑appropriate nutrition, environment, nervous system support, and relationship—is becoming the backbone of every episode.

    Jess breaks down what ReWilding really means for modern pet parents and what you can expect from the new format:

    •

    More solo deep‑dives into holistic, nature‑centric pet health

    •

    Real‑life case studies that show the WWP feeding and wellness model in action

    •

    Intentionally curated guests—integrative vets, brand founders, and experts who share the same whole‑body, mind, spirit philosophy

    If you’re ready to move beyond quick fixes, confusing advice, and fear‑based pet care, this episode sets the stage for a deeper, more grounded season of The Pet Parenting Reset—rooted in ReWilding, guided by the Wild Wellness model, and designed to help you become the kind of guardian your pet’s nature has always needed.

  16. Can Dogs Live Longer Naturally? Fresh Food, Clean Environments & Lifespan Drugs with Dr. Kevin Toman

    Episode 259

    Show notes

    This episode explores what it really means to help our dogs live longer, healthier lives—starting with the basics of what they eat and the world they live in. Dr. Kevin Toman shares his perspective as a veterinarian on the power of fresh food, reducing toxins, and making everyday choices that can add quality years for our dogs. We also get into the emerging world of lifespan‑extending pharmaceuticals for pets, and Kevin explains why some vets are beginning to use them and what he’s seeing in practice. In response, I share my concerns and questions about relying on drugs to extend life, and why I believe our focus should remain on real food, clean environments, and true health rather than quick fixes. If you’ve ever wondered how far to go with “anti‑aging” approaches for your dog—or whether we really need pharmaceuticals to help them thrive—this conversation will give you a lot to think about.

  17. What Rats Teach Us About Dogs: Holistic Rodent Control & Shared Environments

    Episode 258

    Show notes

    This conversation dives into an unexpected but eye‑opening question: what can a rat specialist teach us about our dogs? My guest works in rodent control using only holistic methods and essential oils, and through years of observing rats up close, he’s noticed striking parallels between how rats and dogs respond to stress, toxins, and their environments. We talk about why “pests” are often sensitive, intelligent animals, how the same chemicals and conditions that harm rodents also affect our dogs, and what it means to create a safer, less toxic home for every species who shares our space. You’ll also hear how essential oils and other natural tools can be used thoughtfully, what ethical, compassionate rodent control looks like, and why paying attention to the smallest animals can deepen the way we care for our pets. If you’re curious, open‑minded, and interested in environment‑based health, this one will give you a whole new perspective.

    This conversation dives into the powerful connection between your wellbeing and your animal’s. Jody Teiche shares how her work as a pet health coach naturally expanded into supporting humans too, and why real transformation happens when we look at both ends of the leash.

    You’ll hear how stress, lifestyle, mindset, and emotional health in guardians can show up as issues in their pets, plus simple ways to shift your own habits to create a calmer, healthier home. We also explore what holistic pet health coaching looks like in practice, how it overlaps with human health coaching, and how small, compassionate changes for yourself can lead to big benefits for your dog or cat.

    If you’ve ever needed a loving reminder that caring for you is one of the most important ways to care for your animals, this episode will feel like a reset.

    Show notes

    How to Help Your Pets Naturally: Homeopathy & Real Food with Jan Allegretti is a deep‑dive into what it really looks like to support animals holistically, day in and day out. In this episode, Jan shares insights from more than 35 years of helping dogs and cats using homeopathy, nutrition, and a whole‑animal perspective. We talk about why real, species‑appropriate food is such a powerful foundation for health, how homeopathic remedies can fit alongside conventional care, and what Jan looks for when choosing an approach for the individual animal in front of her. You’ll hear practical examples, gentle mindset shifts for worried pet parents, and simple, doable ways to start moving your own pets toward more natural, aligned care—without feeling like you have to do everything at once.

  20. Omega‑3 Testing Explained: What a High Omega‑6 to Omega‑3 Ratio Reveals About Inflammation

    Episode 251

    Omega‑3 Testing Explained: What a High Omega‑6 to Omega‑3 Ratio Reveals About Inflammation

    In this episode, Jess sits down with Tavis Piatoly from OmegaQuant to unpack what your omega‑3 test results are actually telling you—and why a high omega‑6 to omega‑3 ratio can quietly fuel chronic inflammation in both humans and animals. Together, they break down how tests like the omega‑3 index work, what those percentages and ratios really mean, and how far off the average modern diet is from where we want to be.

    Building on Jess’s earlier “Omegas for Dummies” episode with Judah Veitel from Nordic Naturals, this conversation moves from theory into application: real client patterns, example ranges, and what tends to shift when people and pets finally get into a healthier omega‑3 zone. You’ll hear about the links between fatty acid balance and issues like joint pain, skin problems, behavior changes, cardiovascular risk, and that vague “always inflamed” feeling so many of us accept as normal.

    If you’ve ever looked at an omega‑3 lab report and thought, “Okay… now what?”, or you’re wondering whether your current fish oil, pet food, or diet is enough to move the needle, this episode will give you a clear, practical framework for testing, interpreting, and taking action.
