PETS

  • Growing up with pets can help your immune system
  • Cats and dogs walk around the house with all kinds of germs
  • This helps kids get used to different bacteria and germs
    • Particularly good to have in most formative years
  • Both Vinnie and Gina have dogs (and Vinnie, a cat)
    • One of Vinnie and Serena’s dogs is geriatric
      • She is mostly blind and deaf, but still enjoys her life
      • So long as she is enjoying and eating, she will stay alive!
      • Just because she is incontinent does not mean she should be put down
  • Some dogs can benefit from a grain-free diet
    • The only problem with grain-free is it often has potato in it instead
    • Make sure your dogs have water with dinner because grain-free is heavier in the stomach
    • Potato is still better than grain

  1. First, Thanks for all you do. Found you through ACE a few years ago and as a runner and all-sports enthusiast NSNG has been a game changer.
    I also now spend a lot of time exercising my 80lbs American Bulldog/Staffordshire terrier mix and I’m never out of energy.
    To that end, I heard the podcast when you and Gina were discussing pet health and thought this website/magazine may be helpful. I have my dog on raw diet for almost a year now; it’s not that hard and akin to NSNG with humans, it’s the best thing for them. Just wanted to throw it out there.
