  • Helpful for us and our dogs

    Our dogs have varying levels of energy so it was great to find a podcast with numerous topics that are relevant to them on an individual level. I also like the varied lengths of the episodes. I find myself able to listen to podcasts shorter than ten minutes and that is provided here quite well. Thank you to the host Emily for a wonderful podcast.
