## Resource

2018 was a scary time to be a pet owner. Information was pouring in; telling us that what we were feeding our pets might be killing them. DCM suddenly wasn't only hereditary and it could happen to dogs eating a grain-free diet. Our government issued warnings, scientists posted studies, but then, it all just disappeared. The problem wasn't solved, pet parents didn't have answers, and we are left wondering what the fluff just happened. Join in on the conversation: email us at whatthefluffpod@gmail.com . We would love to dole out advice, shout out your pup, and literally just get to know you! Shoutout our favorite shelters and rescues!
