Seann’s back from the brink (a sinus infection, but still), Jack’s late, and order is finally restored… sort of.

We’re joined by our brilliant dog expert Simon, who tackles everything from Mildred’s barking to what to do (and not to do) when dogs fight - and why training is a life-long commitment.

Plus, Sara brings in the unbelievable viral story about seven dogs escaping the illegal meat trade in China - a plot straight of a Pixar film. [Editor's note: this was the breaking story at the time of recording, it transpires the dogs could have been following a German Shepherd in heat and were not stolen. The Corgi did still apparently lead the dogs home]

Also featuring: one very proud lightbulb purchase.

Jack Dee and Sara dive into your emails, voice notes and messages in this week’s Bark Back, sharing where you listen - from pottery studios to dog grooming salons, celebrating 11-year-old Poppy’s incredible children's marathon for the PDSA, and unpacking the now-proven tomato ketchup trick for dogs who’ve rolled in something truly awful. There’s also more love for Chris Packham, a brilliant bit of dog science about Basset hound ears, and plenty of listener stories as they keep things ticking along while Seann recovers.

Jack and Sara (no Seann, he's ill) are joined by Laura Mohan, the founder of Billy’s Bus - the UK’s first dog bus, inspired by her Cavapoo Billy. What began as a search for better care for her own dog has grown into a fully customised bus giving dogs social adventures, with carefully matched packs, and huge focus on wellbeing. Laura explains how it works, as well as the unexpected impact it’s having on the wider community through volunteering and connection.

There’s also a message from Mildred Barrett in Seann's absence, an update on Juniper and Dolly, and all the usual dog chat as they hold the fort while Seann recovers.

Would you adopt a dog… with your own name?

This week on Bark Back, we hear more about the very real (and very adoptable) Seann Walsh at The Rescue Hotel - and it raises some big questions.

Plus, your emails take us from Johannesburg to Western Australia, with stories of runaway dogs, motorbike chases and the songs we sing to them.

There’s also an important reminder about what dogs pick up on walks, after a heartbreaking story about secondary poisoning - and why it’s something every owner should be aware of.

And Jack ponders why friends named their dog “Jack”, Seann reveals the lamp he's owned that's never had a bulb, and a listener makes a strong case for Sara finally getting on the billboard.

Wildlife broadcaster and conservationist Chris Packham joins Oh My Dog - and ends up answering some of the biggest dog questions we’ve ever had on the podcast.

Chris introduces us to his two poodles Sid and Nancy, explains why he feeds them a vegan diet, and reveals what science actually says about whether dogs love their owners.

Along the way he also settles some classic dog mysteries - including why dogs spin before they poo, why they eat other dogs’ poo, why dogs lick our faces, and how closely they’re connected to wolves.

Plus:Jack explains the history of pavements, Seann tries to solve Mildred’s early-morning barking problem, and we learn that dogs might love their owners even more than sausages.

It’s one of our most fascinating episodes yet!

It’s Bark Back, where Jack , Seann and Sara dive into your emails, voice notes and dog stories.

This week: a dog that can open the bathroom door, two cocker spaniels that scream like banshees at cats, and a brilliant listener who sings lullabies to calm his reactive dog on walks.

Plus we hear from a dog rescue sanctuary in Hawaii, debate the true size of a slice of salami, and celebrate three years of Oh My Dog! with more brilliant listener messages.

Singer-Songwriter Calum Scott joins us to introduce his English bulldog Elvis - but not before the podcast descends into technical chaos.

After the recording failing the first time, Calum kindly came back to redo the chat (with a few new stories along the way). We talk about Elvis’ five-generation pedigree, why bulldogs make such brilliant first dogs, and the slightly embarrassing phase Elvis is currently going through…

Plus: Jack commits a classic faux paw, Seann records from an iPad after his equipment goes walkies, and we discover Elvis has his own bedroom and sounds like an old Yorkshireman.

This week’s Bark Back comes straight from the Spotify Studios, as Jack, Seann and Sara dive into your messages and stories. From the now-infamous “hygiene cut” discussion and whether dog owners overshare a little too freely, to moving house with dogs, lost pups, bedtime routines and equal billing on billboards. It’s a short, sharp, energising Bark Back for your walk.

It’s not every day your podcast ends up on a billboard in Leicester Square. To celebrate three years of Oh My Dog, Jack, Seann and Sara record a special anniversary episode - beginning on the street beneath Spotify’s billboard before heading into the studio to reflect on all the fun and chaos of the past three years, and talk Mildred's ears, Juniper's concern, Jack's doggy ventriloquist act, and a food graph that confuses everyone.

This week on Bark Back, Seann briefly forgets geography, floor lasagne returns, dogs guard baths like lifeguards, and the internet once again refuses to let Jack forget the sausage photos. There are runaway dogs who find their own way home, name pronunciation chaos, and by the end we’re calling each other entirely the wrong names on purpose.
