Shownotes

Dr. Holly Mash grew up in both urban and rural areas in England. She discovered a love for animals at an early age and set a goal to be a veterinarian. She earned her veterinary degree from the University of Bristol in 2001. While in veterinary school, she spent time on a farm in Norway and an externship at the University of Pennsylvania's New Bolton Equine Center. 

After graduation, she worked in both mixed and small animal practices for a few years, before deciding to go to Australia and New Zealand for a year to take a break from practice. At the same time, her interest was kindled in holistic medicine because of successful treatment of a resistant corneal ulcer in her parent's dog. 

While in Australia, she spent time at Dr. Barbara Fougere's practice and was convinced to take the IVAS acupuncture course during her year away from practice. When she returned to England, she started a referral acupuncture practice, which continues to this day. 

Please enjoy this conversation with Dr. Holly Mash as we discuss her education, holistic training, visiting King Charles III organic dairy farm and a leading pet food brand, and her two books, The Holistic Dog and the Holistic Cat.
