About this episode
Is your dog packing on pounds, snoring through playtime, or rocking a tragic tail bald spot? Before you call them lazy, you might want to call your vet. In this episode, we tackle canine hypothyroidism—the sneaky, sleepy hormone imbalance that’s more common than you think.
We break it all down: what it is, how to spot it, what tests to run, and why your pup might be a walking nap. Expect laughs, real talk, and practical takeaways to help your pet live their best (and least sluggish) life.
Whether your dog’s just chill or truly thyroid-challenged, this episode is your metabolism masterclass with a side of sass.
