In this episode your host John Littlefair chats with award winning Hollywood movie dog trainer Mathilde de Cagny. 

Mathilde's journey is inspirational.  Born and raised in Paris, France, she moved to Los Angeles at the age of 20.  Starting as a volunteer for Birds and Animals Unlimited, she would eventually rescue a dog called Fred who was hired to play Einstein in the Back To The Future sequel.

Mathilde's most famous and extensive collaboration was with the late Moose, the Jack Russell terrier who starred for 11 years as 'Eddie' on the television show FRASIER.  

Other notable credits include Steel Magnolias, My Dog Skip, Marley And Me, As Good As It Gets, Lassie, Hotel For Dogs, Beginners, Hugo and Max I and II.

Mathilde is dedicated to rescuing shelter dogs and giving them a second chance, many going on to be famous.

This is her story.
