My Dog Is Better Than Your Dog – Details, episodes & analysis

Description:

In Part 1 of this enlightening conversation, we bring you the first half of a deep dive into the inspiring journey of Dr. Magda, a holistic veterinarian with a truly global perspective. Dr. Magda, who was born in Poland and grew up in Philadelphia, shares her unique path to becoming an integrative vet. Introduced to holistic medicine at a young age by her parents, she only came to appreciate its value later in life, which profoundly influenced her career choice.

With a love for animals and a passion for exploring different cultures, Dr. Magda initially pursued studies in languages and literature at Princeton University. However, her desire to care for animals eventually led her back to veterinary medicine. After completing pre-veterinary courses and spending some time in veterinary school in Poland, she graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2009. It was during this period that she faced her own health challenges, which reignited her interest in holistic medicine and set her on the path to becoming an integrative veterinarian.

Join us for this first part of a fascinating discussion between two integrative vets as Dr. Magda shares her story, her love for continuous learning, and the experiences that shaped her holistic approach to veterinary care.

If you've ever been curious about flower essences, this episode is for you! Dr Magda and I dive deep into these beautiful, gentle remedies. They were first discovered by homeopath Dr Bach, who collected the morning dew of various flowers and gave them to his patients to see what effect each flower had. Each flower works on specific emotional states, the root cause of many of the unwanted behaviors we see in our pets. Or as Madga puts it, it's 'psychotherapy in a bottle'. From dogs behaving in aggressive ways to cats urinating on the rug to a dog with severe PTSD…some of the results Magda has had with her pet patients are nothing short of magical.
