Do scented candles bother dogs? Are essential oils dangerous for cats? And what should you do if your pet has skin, hair, or nail problems? Veterinarian dermatologist Dr. Joya Griffin, the star of National Geographic’s Pop Goes The Vet, tells us what it’s like to treat the skin, hair, and nails of polar bears, pigs, pocket pets, and more. Plus, we talk about Jenn’s hairless dog, Jess’s longhaired cat, some of the medical mysteries Dr. Griffin has solved—and what she really thinks when she sees pets with manicures and dye jobs.
