Friday at 7pm!

Here comes Friday! With all the excitement of hugs on Monday may be you’ve over looked our Friday night rendezvous. For the faithful amongst you we have answered your call and look forward to a discussion over the question of whether or when to vaccinate, the immune system, bio security, preparation and above all how to delight in our young companions. So whether you’re live 7pm (London,UK) or on catch up (any time) with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, join Drs Nick, Conor and Brendan for a conversation on vaccines.

RPM - Tonight at 7pm Pancreatitis

RPM: Raw Pet Medics DO Pancreatitis 7pm tonight - Friday. On RPM FB Page.

Pancreatitis...

As high blood fat is a symptom of a failing pancreas, vets
think feeding fat is the problem.

However, studies* show feeding carbohydrates spike blood
fat (when they make up 55% of the diet, on an ME basis).

This is why, among many other benefits, raw dog food
reduces blood fat**.

Understanding this process is CRUCIAL to not only treating
this disease but avoiding it in the first place.
