Dr. Christina Montalbano from the University of Florida’s veterinary teaching hospital guides us through the world of hyperbaric oxygen chamber therapy for our animal companions. From horses to hamsters, we discuss how this advanced treatment is offering a breath of fresh air to veterinary care, tackling ailments like wound management, spinal cord injuries, and a host of other conditions. Our conversation with Dr. Montalbano peels back the layers of history and science behind this modern marvel, revealing its journey from deep-sea applications to enhancing the well-being of pets and wildlife alike.
We discuss the preparations and protocols necessary to ensure a secure environment inside the chamber.

In honor of this leap year I am re-releasing one of my favorite episodes:
When my dog Chance began to show his age, I was desperate for a solution that would restore his youthful spirit. That's when Leap Years, a revolutionary anti-aging supplement for dogs, entered our lives and transformed Chance's golden years. In episode of the Baroo Podcast, I sit down with the minds behind Animal Bioscience—CEO Nick Sinclair, Chief Veterinary Officer Jenny Rentko, and holistic veterinarian Dr. Heather Oxford. We discuss the incredible advancements Leap Years is making in canine longevity and share uplifting stories from pet owners who've seen their furry companions thrive.
Leap Years has recently become the first daily supplement clinically proven to slow the effects of aging in dogs.
