How are you Bookshelvers!?

We are back for another informative, fun packed episode talking all things rescue with the funny, clever and, occasionally, dapper Tom Candy. Tom is yet another amazing speaker appearing at the DOGx conference this year so we thought we better catch up and find out more about him and the important work he does on a daily basis. Little did we know the topic of sea slugs in flamboyant outfits would emerge but far be it for us to avoid a little sluggy tangent. Don't forget to book your spot at DOGx 2023 to come see us all in the flesh as well as hear from some of the best minds in dog training and behaviour.
