Dr. Rowena Packer is a Senior Lecturer in Companion Animal Behaviour and Welfare Science at the Royal Veterinary College in London, where she studies dog breeding with an eye to maximizing physical and emotional health of dogs. She also studies how health affects canine behavior and welfare, and - the reason I asked her on for this episode - how companion animal owners make decisions about their dogs, and how to improve those decisions in line with animal welfare. Rowena and I talked about why people love brachycephalic dogs so much and why so many people seem to have trouble recognizing when their dog has breathing issues. We also talked about hope for the future and the way forward to maintaining the characteristic look of shorter muzzled dogs without such a high risk of welfare compromise.

Dr Dan O' Neill, Associate Professor in Companion Animal Epidemiology at Royal Veterinary College, joins us to discuss the latest research from VetCompass on comparing three ‘designer' cross breeds namely the Cavapoo, Cockapoo and the Labradoodle on whether they are healthier than their ‘pure bred' parts. Revealing to some surprise that these three mixes are indeed no healthier than their pedigree parents, we chat about bias, stigma and trends that influence dog owners. We discuss the shift in dog ownership towards these new ‘breeds', in the wake of much discussion on the health limiting over-exaggerated features of some pedigrees that has caused a shadow to fall across all purebreds. Dr Dan is passionate about ‘Innate Health' which simply means dogs should be able to express themselves as dogs being able to breathe, run, and communicate as a dog is meant to! We discuss the work that Vet Compass is doing to paint a picture, a Demo-graph, on all aspects of modern post-pandemic dogs and their owners, including husbandry, which is coming soon!

Today I'm talking with the researchers who recently published a paper that's been getting a lot of social media buzz. The paper's title is "The doodle dilemma: How the physical health of ‘Designer-crossbreed' Cockapoo, Labradoodle and Cavapoo dogs' compares to their purebred progenitor breeds." This interview was a big party featuring Gina Bryson, the first author on the paper, as well as two researchers from Royal Veterinary College, Dr Rowena Packer, and Dr Dan O'Neill, who has been a guest on the podcast before. Gina, Rowena, and Dan walked me through what the paper does and does not tell us about the health of some specific common crosses compared to the parent breeds, and also let me know about additional data that they collected that we'll be seeing in some future papers from the group. A quick side note that they refer a few times to the RVC, which is the Royal Veterinary College, the institution where they work. And another side note - I've started going by my middle name, Perry, because I like it better. My pronouns are still she/her. You'll hear Dan call me Perry a few times during this episode and I didn't want anyone to be confused by that. Jessica is still my legal and professional name - if it helps to contextualize, you can think of Perry as a nickname. On with the episode!

In this podcast episode, we interview Dr. Julia Beatty, a distinguished Professor of Veterinary Medicine and Infectious Diseases at City University's Jockey Club College of Veterinary Medicine and Life Sciences. Dr. Beatty shares her remarkable journey from studying at University College London and the Royal Veterinary College to her extensive work in feline medicine and infectious diseases. She discusses her career milestones, including her PhD in feline virology at the University of Glasgow, her leadership roles at the University of Sydney, and her contributions to the field through various boards and editorial positions. Dr. Beatty also offers insights into her research, her passion for feline medicine, and the future of veterinary infectious diseases.Hepatitis B-like viruses (hepadnaviruses) have been identified in a wide range of animals, including cats. The hepadnavirus in cats, sometimes referred to as feline hepadnavirus or FeHBV, is similar to the human hepatitis B virus but is specific to felines.This virus is a relatively recent discovery, and researchers like Dr. Julia Beatty have been at the forefront of studying it. FeHBV has been found in domestic cats, and while the full impact on feline health is still being explored, there is concern that it could contribute to liver disease in cats, much like its human counterpart does in people.The discovery of FeHBV has opened new avenues for research in feline medicine, particularly in understanding liver diseases in cats and the potential for transmission and prevention. As research continues, it may lead to better diagnostic and treatment options for cats affected by this virus.
In a world that favours beauty, from aesthetically pleasing interior design to an attractive physical appearance, why are we suddenly fawning over goofy-looking pets, particularly dogs, with exaggerated features? There's been a pet paradigm shift – perfection is out, and droopy eyes are in. What's going on?在一个崇尚美的世界里，从美观的室内设计到有吸引力的外表，为什么我们突然对那些看起来傻乎乎的宠物，尤其是具有夸张特征的狗产生了奉承呢？ 宠物范式发生了转变——完美已经过时，下垂的眼睛开始流行。这是怎么回事？First, we must understand our attraction to cuteness. Human babies are pretty helpless, so there had to be an evolutionary adaptation to ensure we looked after them. According to Konrad Lorenz's "baby schema" theory, infantile features like big eyes, big heads and soft bodies trigger the instinct to protect our offspring. When animals have similar traits, we think they're "in need of our companionship or care," causing "the rush of warm emotion that is the cuteness response," says Joshua Dale, co-editor of 'The Aesthetics and Affects of Cuteness'.首先，我们必须了解我们对可爱的吸引力。 人类婴儿非常无助，因此必须有一种进化适应来确保我们照顾他们。 根据康拉德·洛伦茨的“婴儿图式”理论，大眼睛、大头和柔软的身体等婴儿特征会触发保护后代的本能。 当动物具有相似的特征时，我们认为它们“需要我们的陪伴或照顾”，从而引发“一种温暖的情绪，这就是可爱的反应”，《可爱的美学和影响》的联合编辑约书亚·戴尔说 '。During the Victorian era, dog shows were all the rage, and with them came selective breeding for cuteness rather than health or functionality. This led to a rise in flat-faced breeds with squashed snouts and bulging eyes like bulldogs and pugs - a reminder that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. These breeds remain very popular today. The French Bulldog became the most popular dog in the US in 2022, according to the American Kennel Club. Rowena Parker, lecturer at the Royal Veterinary College in the UK, believes this is partly driven by social media influencers. "The ugly-cute thing is very fashionable," she says. Despite the growing love for these dogs, there are ethical concerns. Many flat-faced breeds suffer from breathing difficulties and skin infections. 在维多利亚时代，狗展风靡一时，随之而来的是为了可爱而不是健康或功能性而进行的选择性繁育。 这导致了像斗牛犬和哈巴狗这样鼻子扁平、眼睛凸出的扁平脸品种的增加——这提醒人们，情人眼里出西施。 这些品种至今仍然很受欢迎。 据美国养犬俱乐部称，法国斗牛犬于 2022 年成为美国最受欢迎的狗。 英国皇家兽医学院讲师罗威娜·帕克 (Rowena Parker) 认为，这在一定程度上是由社交媒体影响者推动的。 “丑陋又可爱的东西非常时尚，”她说。 尽管人们对这些狗的喜爱与日俱增，但仍存在道德问题。 许多扁脸品种都患有呼吸困难和皮肤感染。 A testament to the pet paradigm shift is the World's Ugliest Dog Contest, held in California since the 1970s. In a line-up of pooches with lopsided ears, snaggled teeth and patchy fur, who will be the loveable underdog that tugs on our heartstrings this year?自 20 世纪 70 年代以来在加利福尼亚州举办的世界最丑狗大赛就是宠物范式转变的证明。 在耳朵不对称、牙齿参差不齐、皮毛斑驳的狗狗阵容中，谁会成为今年牵动我们心弦的可爱的失败者呢？aesthetically pleasing 审美上令人愉悦的fawn over 过度赞扬goofy-looking 看起来滑稽可笑的exaggerated features 夸张的五官paradigm shift 根本性的变化droopy 耷拉着的infantile 婴幼儿的cuteness response 对可爱事物的本能反应all the rage 风靡一时selective breeding 选择性繁育flat-faced 脸部扁平的squashed snouts 扁平的口鼻部位bulging 鼓起的，隆起的beauty is in the eye of the beholder 情人眼里出西施，对美的看法因人而异the "ugly-cute thing" “又丑又可爱的东西”lopsided 向一侧倾斜的snaggled tooth 不整齐的牙齿patchy （毛发）斑驳的underdog 不被看好的人，弱势者tug on the heartstrings 触动心弦，激发情感

We talk about the health issues faced by flat-faced (brachycephalic) dogs and cats and why these breeds are still to popular with Dr. Dan O'Neill and Dr. Rowena Packer of the Royal Veterinary College.We start by talking about what we mean when we talk about brachycephalic dogs. Pugs, Bulldogs, and French Bulldogs are the poster children for these breeds and get the most attention, but we also get some surprising good news about Shih Tzus.When dogs are bred for flat faces it means they can struggle to breathe. Dan and Rowena talk about the health issues these dogs can face and the effects it has on their lifespan.We talk about their co-edited book, The Health and Welfare of Brachycephalic (Flat-Faced) Companion Animals: A Complete Guide for Veterinarians and Animal Professionals. The book covers a wide range of information and we talk about how the intended audience is not just vets but anyone who cares about these dogs.And there's a note of optimism as we talk about what would make a difference to the welfare of flat-faced dogs.Finally we talk about the books we're reading:The Signal and the Noise by Nate SilverNudge: The Final Edition by Richard H.

I was so excited when Dr. Jane Goodall wrote the foreword of my book, and she really has a big focus now on the younger generation through Roots and Shoots. And being that I developed my career by setting up a wildlife club at high school so that from a young age teenagers should know that they can make a difference. They don't have to be much older to make a difference.Even as a teenager, you can make a huge difference. I'm excited. My son wrote a book Zookeeper for a Week, which he wrote during the pandemic because he had spent a week at the zoo when he was 13. And when he was 16, he was able to write this book.So you're never too young to make a difference. And I think what I would like to tell many young people is to follow your dreams and the rest will follow. Even if what you're trying to do is something that no one has ever done before. Or let's say women are not considered, it's a male-dominated profession. Wildlife conservation, veterinary medicine in Uganda is still very male-dominated. And you shouldn't really worry about what people think about you, what culture, or society expects you to be doing. If you feel that it's an important thing to do, you should go ahead and do it. And it's so important to protect the natural world, to protect nature and the wildlife because we, we protect nature, we protect nature. We are ultimately protecting ourselves. Gorillas are so few numbers still.

With no role-models or influences in my life to steer me to the natural world, it's a mystery to my whole family how I ended up loving the outdoors and everything in it, but somehow I did. My love for nature fuelled me to pursue a BSc at the Royal Veterinary College where I studied a whole range of aspects of animal biology; from anatomy and physiology to behaviour and evolution. My research into kangaroo biomechanics and limb bone scaling was part of a paper published in the Royal Society Open Science in 2018. I then completed my MSc at Imperial College London, where I fell in love with science communication and story telling. I first picked up a camera at 19 years old when my parents sent me to live in an ashram for 6 months (of course, as a teenager, I wasn't too thrilled at the prospect initially) and that's how I accidentally got into, and got hooked on, photography. I am self-taught and now specialise in travel and wildlife photography. I love exploring the world, often travelling solo, and learning about different cultures beyond stereotypes. Having Indian heritage, I have a deep understanding of the need to look beyond imperialist and colonialist generalisations and I am able to truly connect with people around the world. As a biologist, there's something so incredibly special about seeing the most breathtaking animals in their natural habitat and experiencing the sheer magnitude and magic of the world around us. I have been fortunate enough to have been to the Kumbh Mela, the largest gathering of people on Earth, the forests of Finland to photograph brown bears and the depths of the South African ocean, surrounded by thousands of hammerhead sharks. My photography work has been featured by UNICEF and the BBC and I have had the opportunity to have worked for Parmarth Niketan Ashram and Light for the World. I have also had footage featured on BBC AutumnWatch and one of my photographs was selected for the long list of the Natural History Museum's Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition. I work full time as a freelancer on science and wildlife documentaries, where I am currently working as a researcher for the BBC's Natural History Unit on a landmark natural history series for National Geographic.” *** New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast go live every Tuesday at 7am UK time - Hit the subscribe button so you don't miss out.

What's cooking Bookshelvers!?This episode we are super excited to have the absolutely wonderful Dr Amber Batson joining us. It isn't everyday that you find a personality in the dog world who is both insanely interesting and ridiculously funny! We were thrilled to have Amber agree to talk at last years PACT Connecting Communities Conference, where she was a highlight for everyone who attended.

This episode from our clinical series is brought to you by Elanco, makers of the broadest range of parasiticides including Advocate, Milbemax, Seresto and Credelio Plus. "The question about the biochemistry is really interesting, because what your question now is, is 'what is it, and where is it?' And the problem that we have is that the liver enzymes aren't gonna tell us, because it's really hard to separate hepatic from post-hepatic on bloods. ALP is very insensitive in the cat and will go up with both hepatic and post-hepatic. ALT will go up with hepatic and post-hepatic. Bilirubin will be up. So what?!" We recorded this case-based interactive session about how to work up the jaundiced cat with one of the world's leading Small Animal Medicine specialists and teachers, Prof Jill Maddison at session our live event in 2022. Prof Jill Jill Maddison, BVSc, DipVetClinStud, PhD, SFHEA, MRCVS, is a professor of general practice, the director of professional development, and the BVetMed and CertAVP course director at Royal Veterinary College. She is also a coordinator for London Vet Show and is a consultant at a local veterinary practice and at Beaumont Sainsbury Animal Hospital in London. Dr Maddison is the senior editor of the second edition of Small Animal Clinical Pharmacology and the senior editor of Clinical Reasoning in Small Animal Practice. She has lectured worldwide on clinical problem-solving, small animal internal medicine, and clinical pharmacology. In this session she helps us reason through a case of jaundice in a cat to create a deeper understanding, rather than a simple list of facts. She also shifts some long-standing beliefs around diagnostic testing in liver disease in both dogs and cats. Topic list: 5:07 Where to begin your workup. 6:05 Defining the problem and localising the problem: Pre-hepatic, hepatic or post-hepatic? 9:17 How much does dehydration actually affect PCV? 10:43 Bilirubin - how useful is it? "It's the most over-interpreted test I reckon. I have so many vets tell me, “Oh, the bilirubin is 16, it has to have a problem with its liver…” No, it probably just has inflammatory disease." 13:14 Dd's for hepatic disease in cats. 14:20 Dd's for post-hepatic causes of jaundice. 16:04 Biochem in jaundice: ALP, ALT, GGT. "The problem that we have is that the liver enzymes aren't going to tell us." 19:51 Why bile acids are useless in the diagnosis of liver disease. "The bile acids don't tell you anything more than you already know. There is no relationship between the level of bile acids and the prognosis or reversibility of the lesion." 24:25 Can't I just trial-treat? 26:16 Ultrasound. 28:27 Signalment: how useful is it? 29:36 Cholesterol and liver disease. 30:52 Pancreatic lipase and pancreatitis in cats. "What we found was that we had 24% false negatives. So we had a quarter of our cats who had what seemed to be pancreatitis that did not have an increased Pli." 36:54 Hepatic lipidosis.
