This week on Bark Back, we dive into the mysterious inner lives of dogs. From cockapoos dragging their owners into the pub, to Jack Russells insisting on walking back to their old house years after moving, we explore whether dogs carry emotional maps of home.

There are brilliant listener stories, dogs who swear like sailors (via their owners), Cinnamon Trust love, and those heart-stopping moments when a dog goes missing - before finding their own way home.

Comedian Sara Barron joins us to talk about her brand new Bedlington Whippet puppy, Wednesday. It's a brilliantly honest account of how intense, disorientating and surprisingly hard getting a dog can be. From puppy blues and training chaos to feeling weird about saying “I love you”, this is a very funny, very real take on new puppydom.
Plus: crate chat, royal dog messages, Jack's critique of Seann's new haircut, and never ask Seann for help.

There are cracked ribs and a surprising story from Jack, ongoing confusion around Seann’s Yorkshire Nut Terrier, people admitting to eating dog chocolate, and one unforgettable story about a retired SAS stepdad who ate dog food - and wasn’t remotely bothered when he found out. There are also prams, pet peeves, and the usual Bark Back madness.
