,Dr. Judy Jasek and DeDe Murcer Moffett expose the misleading veterinary practices causing pet parents to unnecessarily restrict protein and fat in their dogs' diets while ignoring the real culprits behind health issues.

• The smell of kibble plants and pet food stores reveals the truth about processed pet foods
• Perianal fistulas are often treated with immunosuppressants when natural anti-inflammatory approaches could be more effective
• Misdiagnosis of pancreatitis has become common with the introduction of quick bedside tests
• Raw animal fat does not cause pancreatitis - processed treats with sugars and artificial ingredients are more likely culprits
• Most raw diets contain only 14-18% protein, not the 80% many assume
• Elevated kidney values in raw-fed dogs are often normal variations or caused by temporary dehydration
• Phosphorus levels are a better indicator of kidney function than BUN and creatinine alone
• Popular treats labeled "no artificial ingredients" often contain problematic additives like brown sugar, salt and "natural smoke flavor"
• The healthcare system puts both humans and animals into diagnostic boxes rather than addressing root causes
