About me

Branko Kukic

Retired veterinarian

My name is Branko Kukic, a retired veterinarian with over 30 years of experience working with animals. I created this website to share what I have learned from both my clients and the animals themselves. My goal is to help pet owners understand their pets’ natural instincts, recognize the signs and signals they give us, and build a healthier, happier, and more fulfilling life together.

My approach

Pets, owners and environment

Besides practical experience, I consider it extremely important to observe and understand the relationship between pets and their owners, as well as to recognize the impact of the environment on the health and well-being of companion animals.

Prevention first

Preventive care has always been a priority in my practice. Accordingly, my observations have focused on identifying the underlying causes of disease and finding ways to prevent illness rather than treating it.

Learning from nature

I have been trying to understand how domestic animals, prior to domestication, naturally avoided conditions such as indigestion, ear infections, and hot spots, etc.

Start with the myths

Common pet-care habits that do more harm than good, and what to do instead.
