Some people love the idea of a dog friendly office while others are filled with all sorts of concerns and hesitations. During this episode we speak to author and trainer Steph Rousseau of Happy Office Dogs, an organisation that works with employers and employees to create successful working environments for dogs and humans. We talk about the pros and cons of dog-friendly offices, as well as common issues that may arise and how to overcome them. If you work in a dog-friendly office (or wish you did!), this episode is for you.

You  may have heard of the "Slow Food Movement" or "Slow Travel Movement", but  what about the "Slow Dog Movement"? Dog coach Laura Dobb chats to us about slowing down with dogs, how it benefits them and how it can improve our own mental well-being, too. We examine how the way we approach living  with dogs has changed over time, and how we can get back to a more natural, present version of life with our canine companions.

We examine some of the common mistakes made when designing activities for dogs, and why enrichment has become such a buzzword in the dog world. Find out what YOU can do to enrich your dog's life!
