This Thursday I'm welcoming Katherine Carver to talk about her new book, "Abandoned: Chronicling the Journeys of Once-Forsaken Dogs."

Hey everyone! So just wanted to announce my next podcast which I think is another important one as it is also dealing with canine cancers. I'm going to be talking with Ashley Kalinauskas, the Co-founder and CEO of Torigen Pharmaceuticals. They are researching and creating vaccines that help fight different types of canine cancer. What they're doing with this research is so important to help our pets when they get cancer diagnoses. If you'd like to learn more about Torigen and what they're doing please tune in!

Have you ever wondered about whether animals are thinking, feeling beings? Have you ever wondered about the way we humans treat animals, and why we treat some animals differently from others? Well I'll be discussing this with author Brandon Keim who wrote a book titled, "Meet the Neighbors, Animal Minds and Life In A More-Than-Human World." Brandon researched many different instances about how we humans treat our animal neighbors and how these animals are just trying to live their lives in our world, which we aren't making easy for them to do.
