Vet Podcast By The Vetgurus

Dog food made from insects, snakes used as torture, and legally recognising animals' feelings are news items this week. Mark finishes off the news with a story about smart birds - so what happened to the phrase 'bird brained'? Our main topic is remembrance - dealing with the body after the death of a loved pet. Mark and Brendan talk about options for clients including burial, cremation, and memorial jewellery.
