It Probably won't be the last since we think it's a cool concept. Dr. Jennifer Brown interviews Dr. Michael Davis; a licensed veterinarian that is board-certified in both veterinary internal medicine and veterinary sports medicine and rehabilitation. For nearly 3 decades, he has been employed at Oklahoma State University College of Veterinary Medicine as an exercise physiologist with a research career focused on exercise pathophysiology and enhancing performance of working animals. His research has spanned racing sled dogs, off-leash detection dogs, and multipurpose canines. We mention it in the introduction, the quality isn't the best, but the information is a must for any working dog handler regardless of discipline. Shout out to Jen Brown for purchasing her own recording equipment and getting this information out to the masses. Enjoy!","meta_description":"We're naming this the Hijack Episode.
