Ali shares about how her responsibility as the head mistress of Flora and Fauna for her HOA led her to an amazing wolf sanctuary called Shadowland Foundation (shadowlandfoundation.org). We discuss the harm of black and white thinking particularly when it comes to the challenges of supporting the unhoused and Betsy gets shaded in real time from some fellow rescuers about helping a litter of Silver Labs. Tune in for that and so much more on this week’s Dear Dog. 

This week on Dear Dog, we not only get an update on Clementine the wonder-husky’s health, but we also hear how this 13-year-old gal tried her hand paw. (literally) at picking the lock to Ali’s garden door. Inspired by the heatwave in LA, we discuss how to keep your dog cool when temps soar, and Betsy gets a reminder about how important her work is (as if any of us needed one) thanks to her favorite thing…a doggy DNA test.

On this week’s episode, we examine which pet mess we’d prefer to clean up, Betsy’s love of all things leopard print, how Ali (vegan) handles feeding Clementine pork when her greatest dream is to have a piglet of her own and we get a much-anticipated update on Clem’s health. Tune in for this and so much more!
