On today’s podcast we discuss the immensely important topic of veterinary behavior and we leave nothing out! Dr. Lindsay Gallagher was kind enough to spend the hour with us chatting about all the important topics including: Behavioral Medication Working with a Veterinary Behaviorist Cooperative Care and more!

Spirituality with our dogs is a challenging topic to discuss. There is a lot that is still unknown. Today we invited dog trainer Chrissy Messick CPDT-KA joins us to talk about how we can connect to our dogs on a spiritual level. We also geek out a little bit about the growing overlap between the spirit and hard science.

One of the most terrifying fears of dog ownership is the possibility of your dog getting lost. Today I interview Susan Piche of Granite State Dog Recovery about what to do if your dog gets lost, what the experience is like to try and recover a lost dog, and why primitive dogs are so hard to recover. I’d like to personally thank Susan Piche and Granite State Dog Recovery for recovering my (former) foster dog Fancy <3 For more information on dog recovery and to contact Granite State Dog Recovery at the links below: Granite State Dog Recovery Website Granite State Dog Recovery Facebook
