A Dog's Devotion

Welcome to A Dog's Devotion, a podcast for all dog lovers. This episode we once again cover the importance of dog rescue, with Underdog Rescue.
Some of the topics are horrible to hear about, so please keep that in mind. But it is the reality of our world, and some of the hatred in it. There are some very evil people on this planet and they always seem to pray on the most innocent. 

What does it really take to give an “underdog” a second chance?

In this heartfelt episode of A Dog’s Devotion, we shine a light on the incredible work of Underdog Rescue and the life-changing impact of rescue dogs. These are the dogs often overlooked—the seniors, the injured, the abandoned—yet they are the ones with the most powerful stories to tell.

We dive into the realities of dog rescue, the emotional journeys behind adopting a rescue dog, and the deep, unbreakable bond between humans and the dogs who need them most. From stories of resilience to second chances, this episode reminds us how dogs change lives, often when we need it the most.

If you’ve ever wondered how to help, how to adopt, or how a dog could transform your life, this episode is for you.

Because sometimes… the ones we save, end up saving us. 🐾

As always, thank you for listening.

Welcome to A Dog's Devotion, the podcast for all dog lovers. Here we talk about dogs changing lives, rescue dog stories, dog love, the human animal bond, and life with dogs. We as dog lovers know that our lives are so enriched when we have a loving dog by our side. To share adventures, love and just the silence of being together.

 On today's episode, we are talking about the importance of dog rescue. The horrific stories that come with it break my heart, but they have to be told so we can put an end to it.

 The Anna Shelter is trying to do just that.  This episode of A Dog’s Devotion shines a light on the critical, life-saving work being done by rescues like The Anna Shelter, where abandoned, neglected, and abused animals are given a second chance at the love they’ve always deserved.

Behind their doors are stories that are difficult to hear—but impossible to ignore. Across this country, countless animals suffer in silence, victims of cruelty, neglect, and unimaginable abuse. And yet, in places like The Anna Shelter, compassion rises to meet that darkness. Here, broken spirits are rebuilt, trust is restored, and love becomes the bridge between pain and healing.

This conversation is not just about awareness—it’s about action. Because these animals cannot speak for themselves… but we can.

Please listen, share, like, and comment.
Together, we can be their voice.

There is more animal abuse in this country than ever before, we must do what we can to stop it. Thanks to Ruth from The Anna Shelter for the work she is doing. Some of what you will hear will tear your heart into pieces, it did mine - so just be aware we cover some horrific cases of animal abuse. 

Thanks for listening, as always. Hopefully one day we won't have to cover stories like Mimi's.

Welcome to A Dogs Devotion, a dog podcast, that is all about the human animal bond, and how dogs change lives.
In this episode we talk about senior dog health. 
When our dogs get older, everything changes. The slow walks… the stiffness… the look in their eyes that makes you wonder, are they hurting?

In this episode of A Dog’s Devotion, I speak with a canine chiropractor who is helping senior dogs find relief in ways many pet parents don’t even know are possible. If your dog is struggling to get up, hesitating on stairs, or just not themselves anymore, this conversation could change everything.

We talk about how to recognize hidden pain, what’s really happening in your dog’s body as they age, and how gentle, non-invasive care can bring comfort, mobility, and joy back into their lives.

Because when they’ve given us their whole life… we owe them comfort in theirs.

Canine chiropratic care is becoming more and more popular, and the results that many dog parents are seeing is incrediable. You maybe on the fence, you may wonder if it really works, but give this episode a listen and maybe, just maybe we can shed some light on it so you can make your own decision. 

Taking care of our senior dogs is a priority, no one wants to see their dog in pain. This just might be the answer that you have been looking for. Life with dogs is always so much better.

As always, thanks for listening.

This week on A Dog’s Devotion, we honor the incredible life of Kaiserin — a beloved tripawd who, after losing a limb to cancer, became a champion trick dog and a gifted painter.

This week on A Dog’s Devotion, we shine a light on the extraordinary work of Three Little Pitties Rescue — a rescue saving all dog breeds and cats, and proving every single life matters.

Dog rescue in our country has never been more important. Shelters are overwhelmed. The need is constant. And yet… thousands of people show up anyway. Transport drivers. Foster families. Behavior teams. Volunteers. Donors. Quiet heroes working behind the scenes.

Today, I speak with one of the incredible women making it happen — one of the boots-on-the-ground voices in a movement fueled by compassion and action. From Texas to the Pacific Northwest, the East Coast, and the Midwest, they are moving animals from heartbreak to hope.

Please follow their lifesaving work and daily updates on Instagram: @threelittlepittiesrescue

And thank you — to you. A Dog’s Devotion has just been named one of the Top 39 Dog Podcasts in the Country. That honor belongs to this community. It breaks my heart that we still have to keep having these conversations about dog rescue. But we will continue. We will continue to share the stories. We will continue to amplify the people — just like you and me — who refuse to look away and are determined to save a dog’s life.
And you can follow on with me @adogsdevotion1, where l continue to share my love and grief of loosing Max, to learning to love another little soul who was so badly in need of a loving home.

Dogs are the best, and l prefer them over most people.
God bless every single one of them. xoxo

What if your dog has been speaking to you all along… and you’re just learning how to listen?

In this episode of A Dog’s Devotion, I sit down with a gentleman who believes deeply in the spiritual connection between humans and their dogs. Together, we explore what it really means to listen to our dogs—beyond commands and behavior—and how appreciation, presence, and awareness can strengthen the bond we share.

We talk about subtle dog behaviors, emotional cues, and the quiet ways our dogs communicate with us every day. This is a thoughtful, soulful conversation for anyone who feels their dog is more than a pet—more like a teacher, a guide, a companion on life’s journey.

If you’re seeking deeper meaning, a stronger connection, and a new way of understanding the dog at your side, this episode is for you. Sam taught me so much in this conversation, l really think you will find it extremely interesting.

 Sam also shares insights on dog training through an Instagram community: @thesamaysam, and for more information about Sam and his work, you can go to his website: https://samaysam.com/

This week on A Dog’s Devotion, I’m joined once again by Lisa, the founder of Eddie’s Ranch, to talk about the beautiful and growing legacy of her beloved little Eddie on Wheels. What began as a tribute to one special dog has grown into a safe haven for senior and disabled dogs who so often get overlooked. We reflect on how much the ranch has grown over the past year, the lives Lisa has touched, and the love that continues to guide everything she does. Lisa is a truly wonderful, compassionate woman whose heart for dogs shines through in every rescue. Eddie’s legacy is very much alive—and it’s changing lives. 🐶✨

This week on A Dog’s Devotion, I sit down with the founder of Flying Fur Animal Rescue — a U.S. Army veteran whose life of service didn’t end when he left the military. Instead, it took flight in a whole new way.

He shares how Flying Fur Animal Rescue began, what keeps him going through the heartbreak, and why this work is so important — now more than ever. As a pilot, rescuer, and deeply compassionate human, he flies animals out of desperate situations, giving them a second chance at life when they need it most. His dedication, courage, and commitment to service make him the true definition of a hero.

This episode is also a gentle reminder — inspired by my beloved Max — that every act of kindness matters. Whether you’re rescuing animals, fostering, donating, volunteering, sharing stories, or simply loving a dog deeply, the work we all do — no matter how big or small — truly makes a difference.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for listening and for being part of this compassionate, dog-loving community. Your support means everything. 🤍
