Mark from Bella+Duke sits down with Emmanuel, founder of Treat, to explore how the gut microbiome affects pet health, allergies, and overall wellbeing on For Pet’s Sake.

This episode also highlights the importance of environmental exposure, minimizing antibiotics, and participating in microbiome studies to advance pet science. Perfect for dog and cat owners looking to understand gut health, prevent allergies, and optimise their pet’s wellbeing naturally.
