Season 2 of In The Vet's Office starts with a bang as Dr. Josie sits down with celebrity hair colorist Justin Anderson who you may know from "Very Cavallari" and Kristen Cavallari’s "Let’s Be Honest" podcast. This lively conversation dives deep into the quirks of pet parenting, as Dr. Josie shares her “Case of the Week” involving a dog owner who insisted on getting their dog neuticles (yes, dog implants!) before agreeing to a neutering. Justin brings plenty of humor and curiosity as he asks all about his beloved pups, Clark and Kevin, and confesses to taking one of his dog’s trazodone pills in a pinch. Dr. Josie doesn’t hold back in explaining why that’s a dangerous move. Grab your pet and tune in for laughs, learning, and loads of pet-loving fun in this must-hear season opener!

In this episode of In The Vet’s Office, Dr. Isabella Stepanovic, a veterinarian friend of Dr. Josie joins the podcast with her Goldendoodle named Monkey. Dr. Isabella takes over this week’s Case of the Week segment, summarizing many crazy things she has seen in practice at her ER Vet clinic, including a dog with severe burns that had fallen out of the bed of its owner’s truck and had unfortunately been dragged behind the vehicle. Dr. Josie & Dr. Isabella take listener calls and give their feedback on how often to bathe your pets and explain reverse sneezing and whether it is cause for concern. They discuss in depth which vaccines your pet should definitely receive (like rabies, distemper/parvo) and which vaccines are more circumstantial. Dr. Isabella shares a story of a dog that came into her office having seizures, which is normal for her to see, but the dog didn’t respond to meds and passed away. It turned out that the dog was infected with rabies and everyone that had been in contact with the animal had to go through intense rabies treatment. They discuss zoonotic illnesses - meaning diseases that animals can pass to humans, like rabies, if they are not properly vaccinated. Dr. Josie & Dr. Isabella touch on the importance of flea, tick and heart worm treatment and dispute the myth that garlic is a home remedy for tick prevention. They wrap up the episode with PAW & ORDER where Dr. Josie details things she’d never do with her own pets including declawing cats. She and Dr. Isabella talk through how intense that procedure is and the complications that can come from it.
