Ep 38- Pets and why we love them
Manage episode 373824429 series 3331289
Shayna and Kathy are joined by Isabella Suttle, a 2nd year veterinary student with a degree in Integrative Animal Biology with a criminology minor, as well as a masters in Veterinary Forensic Sciences. She also has 5 fur babies.
We talk all about our own animals, but delve into why we love animals, how they are good for our mental health, but also considerations before you get a pet. We also discuss the difference between service animals, emotional support animals and therapy animals.
