This week we're joined by Luke Lalonde and Mitch DeRosier of the ever-evolving band Born Ruffians. Luke shares the incredible story of how he and wife rescued two Pariah dogs, Putty, a 5 year-old female, and Ru, a 3 year-old female, from India and Mitch takes us back 10 years to when he adopted his golden-doodle Charlie (sound familiar?) who has since become the social media mascot for the band.

Born Ruffians new album Beauty's Pride comes out on June 6th via Rep Roc Records. Pre-order your copy today by visiting bornruffians.ca

Luke gave a shout out to Dharamsala Animal Rescue (DAR) whose mission is to create a better world for animals and people by ending the human/street dog conflict and providing spay/neuter, rabies vaccination, rescue and rehabilitation, and community education for rabies safety and compassion.  To learn how you can make a world of difference to animals and people visit dharamsalaanimalrescue.org for more information. Mitch echoed that shout out since he and I both have dogs that've never seen a day of hardship in their lives.
