Your Dog Is Not A Tiny Horse, So Don't Make Them...

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/09/28

Your dog standing patiently beside you can look like perfect manners, but biologically it can be a slow grind of muscle effort. Host Leslie unpacks a simple idea with big welfare implications: dogs do not have a stay apparatus, so “just standing there” is not a neutral behaviour. When we ask for long waits at markets, during stop-start strolls, while we chat to friends, we may be stacking up fatigue and strain in our dogs without realising it. Leslie uses a clear equine comparison to make th...

Most Modern Horse Breeds Are Linked To These Five Types

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/09/21

Five horse types sit behind an astonishing number of modern breeds and once you understand them, you start seeing horses differently. Come along for the ride as host Leslie walks through the big picture categories that shape equine size, movement, temperament and purpose: draught horses, light horses, warmbloods, gaited horses, ponies and equine hybrids, each bred over time has been shaped to meet very specific human needs. If you enjoy practical equine education grounded in biology, s...

The Doctrine Of Herbal Signatures Used By Ancient...

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/09/14

A plant can look like a clue, and for thousands of years that was enough to start a line of medical thinking. Host Ashlie holds a spotlight over the doctrine of signatures, the old herbal idea that shape, colour, texture, scent and even where a plant grows can hint at what it supports in the body. It’s a window into the way people made sense of health long before modern pharmacology. Ashlie explains why these associations worked so well as a learning tool when knowledge travelled by story an...

What If Modern Dog Food Creates Modern Disease?

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/09/10

Your dog’s dinner might be doing far more than filling a belly. Host Leslie discusses why modern commercial dog food can look “complete” on the label, yet still fall short biologically, especially once you factor in shelf life, heavy processing, synthetic nutrients, and low-value ingredients. If you’ve ever wondered why a dog can seem fine for years and then develop allergies, skin disease, dental problems, arthritis, diabetes, or other chronic issues, Leslie connects the dots back to long-te...

Your Horse’s Gut Still Lives On Ancient Grasslands

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/09/07

Your horse’s feeding instincts are not a quirky habit; they are a blueprint written by millions of years grazing on tough grasslands. Host Leslie digs into the biological story of equine species-specific feeding, starting with the horse as a trickle-feeding grazer designed to eat fibrous grasses for most of the day, while on the move. That history explains why the horse’s long digestive tract and hindgut fermentation system still relies on steady fibre and a healthy microbial community to tur...

Essential Fatty Acids For Carnivores

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/09/03

Essential fatty acids get sold as a cure-all for pet allergies, itchy skin, arthritis, and even heart health, but the real story is more practical and more specific. Host Leslie takes a clear-eyed look at omega-3 and omega-6 for dogs and cats, why carnivores need help getting the right fats, and how the “right product” can still fail if the foundation diet is working against you. Most commercial diets, even expensive ones, skew heavily towards omega-6 thanks to grain and legume ingredients. ...

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/08/31

The horse supplement industry is loud, confident, and packed with promises but your horse’s body still runs on biology, not branding. We dig into the most important question owners and riders keep circling back to: do horses actually need supplements, or are we paying for hype because it feels reassuring? Host Leslie talks through why many supplements are unnecessary when the diet is genuinely balanced, and why so many products reach the market without strong horse-specific evidence for safe...

Your Super Cat Is 95.6% Tiger

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/08/27

Your living room does not contain a harmless fluffball. It contains a compact, highly specialised Tiny Tiger that never truly left the wild behind. Your host Ashlie embarks on an entertaining discussion of the domestic cat through a biological perspective: why they move the way they move, sense the world the way they sense it, and act with that unbothered confidence that feels almost prehistoric. Four humorous claims are the basis for Ashlie's Super Cat theories: Cats are “built like liquid...

Why Animal Naturopathic Principles Must Be Species...

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/08/24

“Natural” does not automatically mean safe, and “holistic” does not automatically mean whole. Your hosts Leslie and Ashlie dig into the naturopathic principles we believe should guide ethical, effective animal naturopathic medicine, and why those principles fall apart the moment we treat pets like small humans or rely on a generic “mammal” mindset. We should always keep it grounded in biological sciences: species specific nutrition, organ system function, and the reality that animals cannot t...

Fruit In The Canine Carnivore Diet

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/08/20

Fruit feels like the safest “health boost” you can add to a dog’s bowl, but a carnivore body plays by different rules. Host Leslie walks through when fruit can be appropriate in canine nutrition, why it should stay firmly in the “small extra” category, and how a simple guideline like keeping fruit to 5% of the daily diet can protect long-term health. Leslie also explains why vegetables are usually a more biologically appropriate choice than fruit for dogs, and why seasonality matters....

Understanding Inflammation in Dogs and Horses

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/08/17

Swelling can look simple, but it is often the start of a much bigger story. Host Leslie discusses what inflammation really means in an animal’s body, using clear signs you can spot at home: redness from increased blood flow, heat from chemical activity, swelling from fluid leakage, and pain from pressure on nerves. From the first “something isn’t right” moment, we keep circling back to the question that changes everything: what tissue is injured, and what is the body trying to protect? Lesli...

Long Live The Carrot

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/08/13

Carrots get judged on one thing: sugar. But when you zoom out to equine digestion and equine nutrition, a raw carrot looks far less like a “naughty treat” and far more like a practical, whole-food add-on that your horse is built to handle. Host Leslie talks honestly about why the old warning that carrots are too high in sugar keeps coming back, and why that claim often ignores what matters most for horse gut health: fibre structure, microbial balance, and steady energy. Leslie breaks down wh...

How High Fibre Feeding Reduces Abnormal Oral...

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/08/10

Cribbing, windsucking, wood chewing, bedding eating, these are not just “bad habits”. We’re looking at abnormal oral behaviours in horses as welfare signals, and asking the harder question: what is the horse trying to solve when we remove grazing, fibre, and normal social living? Host Leslie talks through modern research showing how diet changes can shift behaviour for better equine welfare. When horses move from low fibre, high concentrate feeding towards high forage, higher fibre roughage,...

Are Your Dogs Muscles Over Exercised?

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/08/05

Your dog might be “keeping up” on a walk while their body is quietly paying the price. Host Leslie takes a hard look at what happens when small dogs are asked to move at a human pace, racking up far more steps per kilometre and risking muscle fatigue that can snowball into long-term joint wear and tear. If you have ever wondered why your dog slows down, overheats, or looks stiff after what seemed like a normal stroll, this conversation is designed to change how you perceive and plan dog exerc...

Dog Walks: Small Dogs, Small Legs

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/08/03

One glance down can change the whole walk: is your small dog strolling, or sprinting to survive your pace? We dig into why a human “quick walk” can push a little dog into an extended trot, how fatigue shows up as they start drifting behind you, and what chronic effort can do to soft tissue over time. Then we slow things down and defend the sniff fest. Sniffing is enrichment, but it’s also how dogs build memory, map their world, and read the scent trails left by others. Add in hydr...

What Is Herbal Medicine For Animals

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/07/28

“What is herbal medicine?” sounds like an easy question until you realise how slippery the word “herb” is. Hosts Leslie and Ashlie, start this discussion by pulling the definition apart, right through to the way people label the same plant as “food” one day, and “medicine” the next. That small shift in context changes how we think about purpose, safety, and what we expect a plant to do in the body. From there, we step back into the long history of herbal medicine, where trial and error built...

The Pillars Of Animal Health

A.N.M.E Podcast ·

2026/07/27

Your animal’s health often turns on the basics we overlook: how well they sleep, how they move, and what they eat. We start with the three pillars of animal health and make them practical for real homes and real routines. Sleep is more than “they nap a lot” it is comfort, safety, warmth, and pain-free rest across a full 24-hour cycle. If a pet is burning energy to keep warm, feeling unsafe, or coping with arthritis, their sleep quality drops and so does their ability to recover and thrive. F...

We also explain why animal naturopathy demands strict species-specific thinking and a focus on causes over symptoms. • The origins and meaning of the term naturopathy. • Key milestones from Hippocrates to eighteenth and nineteenth century natural healing systems of Naturaopthy coined by John Scheel and Benedict Lust. • Why animal naturopathy is not the same ...
