This week, we discuss how to choose the perfect pet dog for your particular situation. I am a fan of rescue dogs: no need to feed the pedigree breeding market. Pedigree dogs do come up for rescue sometimes, so it is important to understand the pros and cons of different types of animals.

10 min podcast - Choosing the right dog for your home and family

I am a veterinary surgeon with a passion for communicating my love of my work through writing, radio,  television and the internet. My mission is to use the media to act as an advocate on behalf of animals.
I am a partner in a busy 4 vet practice in Bray, Co Wicklow, Ireland, but I spend 50% of my working week on media work. 
I've been broadcasting a weekly "vet spot" on my local radio station, East Coast FM, for the past fifteen years, and I'm delighted, through Soundcloud, to now make this weekly animal-related discussion available globally as a podcast.
