概要

KEY INSIGHTS:What if the real missing piece in your dog’s diet isn’t more plant fiber (like pumpkin or sweet potato)… but the animal fiber (cartilage, ligaments, skin) their body was truly built to thrive on?In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Conor Brady, a dedicated PhD researcher, writer, and founder of Dogs First and DCV Holistic, to uncover one of the most overlooked topics in pet nutrition: fiber.We dive into fascinating studies, from one showing that more plant fiber in the human diet can actually worsen constipation, to research revealing that big cats in zoos had fewer kidney issues when fed meat with the hide still on, and we explore many more thought-provoking findings that challenge what we’ve been taught.Honestly, it all makes a strong case for feeding our pet carnivores the animal fiber their bodies crave.So if your dog or cat is dealing with gas, or you're worried about bloat, or your pet has kidney issues (or you're hoping to prevent them), this episode truly will change how you think about feeding your pet. ✨ What animal fiber is and how cartilage, ligaments, bone and hide feed the microbes our pets need.✨ Why plant fiber behaves so differently in humans versus dogs and cats, and how their digestive systems struggle to ferment it.✨ How plant fiber can increase gas and bloating, and why that can be risky for deep-chested breeds prone to bloat. ✨ Why bloat is rarely seen in raw-fed dogs, and how studies link kibble and high-FODMAP plant fibers to fermentation gas.✨ How natural phosphorus from real food differs from synthetic phosphates in kibble, and why phosphates are the real concern.✨ Why hydration matters more than anything for kidney support, and how dry kibble works against the body’s needs.✨ Why “complete and balanced” labels can be misleading, and how many pet foods fail to meet minimum nutrient standards.✨ How early-life feeding shapes food preferences, and why some pets struggle to transition away from kibble.✨ Why removing plant fiber — not adding more — may support constipation, diarrhea and IBS or IBD symptoms in certain pets.✨ Why dietary variety matters more than perfection, and how true balance happens over time rather than in every single bowl.RESOURCES: Book a consultation with Dr.Conor 👇https://dogsfirst.ie/book-an-appointment/Check out his products 👇https://dogsfirstshop.ie/Dr.Conor’s courses for pet parents 👇https://dogsfirst.ie/all-courses/Dr.Conor’s book👇https://www.amazon.co.za/Feeding-Dogs-Science-Behind-Debate/dp/1916234003FOLLOW:Dr.Conor Brady’s Website: https://dogsfirst.ie/about-dr-conor-brady/Dr.Conor Brady On Instagram: @dogsfirstirelandIntegrative Pet Wellness Center: https://integrativepet.comIntegrative Pet Wellness Center on Instagram: @integrativepetDr. Lily Chen on Instagram:@dr.lilychen @the.unicorn.vet➡️Sign up to our newsletter to get more holistic pet care tips 🐶🐈‍⬛
