First hour: Unleashed: The Pet Show
Second hour: Second Opinion LIVE!
In this month’s episode of Unleashed, we’ll talk about one of the most controversial topics in the feline world: declawing. There is a bill in the New York State Senate that, if passed, would prohibit declawing cats and other animals. We'll discuss what declawing is, the effects it has on cats, and we’ll hear from veterinarians and cat owners on both sides of the debate. Plus, you’ve probably heard about dogs who are trained to detect explosives or illegal drugs, but did you know there are dogs who can sniff out pollution? We’ll go on the job with two dogs working to keep contamination and human bacteria out of the Great Lakes. And Dr. Michelle Brownstein of Henrietta Animal Hospital will be in studio to answer your questions about pet health and behavior.
Then in our second hour, it's Second Opinion LIVE! We’ll talk about good bugs versus bad bugs. Although bacteria in your body are microscopic, they can cause big problems or contribute to good health. Our guest is Dr. Shahzad Mustafa, who is a part of the allergy and clinical immunology team at Rochester Regional Health System and also is a clinical assistant professor of medicine at the University of Rochester School of Medicine & Dentistry.
