WebVet Wellness for Your Pet / ArthroPet Against Joint Disease

Listen NOW…

Hope Schultz, Founder & President/COO, Webvet.com joins hosts Scott Sheppard and Lisa Gorman to discuss the types of information available on this informative new website she founded with her friend Bill Zaccheo. Hope explains that Webvet.com provides the latest news in addition to in-depth articles, written in laymen’s terms designed to educate dog owners on complex medical and other topics. This site isn’t designed to diagnose or suggest treatments or replace taking your dog to the vet but gives a great explanation so dog owners can understand and enjoy better communication with their veternarians for preventative care and treatment. The site covers health issues, emotional and training issues, and has great tools such as a pet sitter directories, and a breed finder to help owners choose the right type of pet for their current situation.

Hope has also been quite active in spreading the word of a growing phenomenon known as "foreclosure pets". The rising cost of homeownership and the current economic times has caused not only families to lose their homes but has also displaced aprox. 1.25 million pets who had to be abandoned as their owners could no longer care for their needs.
