## Resource

We are so excited about our collaboration with one of the country's foremost veterinary clinics, The Drake Center, and we're lucky enough to have them right here in Encinitas, CA. Join us for the first in an ongoing series of discussions with Dr. Kristie Leslie. Dr. Leslie is one of the amazing veterinarians at The Drake Center, and she has a special interest in dog behavior. In this episode, we focus on two subjects: Spaying and Neutering, and Vaccinations. We ask Dr. Leslie to clarify what the research says, and help to align on best practices for the individual dog. Because guess what...every dog is different, and the more we know, the more we make good decisions for our family members with fur.
