Veterinarian Dr. Tom Greek joined us to tackle a wide range of pet-related topics. He explained why weight-loss drugs like Ozempic are sparking conversation in the dog world, and when telemedicine can actually help your pet versus when it’s time to see a vet in person. Dr. Greek also shared expert advice on the safest ways to travel with pets in the car. And for those curious about exotic pets, he offered tips for first-time reptile owners– including which species make the best “starter reptiles.”
