Pet Radio Podcasts

In this Pet Radio dog podcast, we meet seven year old Roman McConn and his Mom who transport dogs from high kill shelters to where they may be adopted to new homes.  The ASPCA has awarded Roman the 2018  “Tommy P. Monahan” Kid of the Year. We interviewed Roman and his Mom last year and are pleased to welcome them back to Pet Radio. Roman’s passion for dogs is an inspiration for both children and adults. Hear the story straight from Roman!

Noah, a blind dog with deformed legs is the winner of the ASPCA 2018 Dog of the Year award. Noah visits schools to promote anti-bullying those who look different, and visits seniors to bring smiles.

Working with a specialized curriculum developed by his owner, teacher Lisa Edge, Noah embodies the message that even though people look different, we all have similar needs and are no less important because of our differences or disabilities. Nearly every day, Lisa receives thankful messages from children who’ve been bullied and find comfort in Noah.

When not in the classroom, Noah can be found at nursing homes, freely giving his love to seniors, or even skiing on the slopes of Wisconsin with custom-made skis to fit his wheelchair.

For overcoming his own severe handicaps to teach children valuable lessons about tolerance and acceptance, Noah is the 2018 ASPCA Dog of the Year.

D.O.G. is a cat with an important mission: to help train service dogs!

Peggy Musen, Executive Director of Duo- an organization that breeds, trains, and places service dogs- explains how D.O.G. plays an important role in training the dogs not to be distracted by cats and other animals. It does not stop him however from making friends with the puppies and dogs and he even plays with them!

ASPCA® Cat of the Year: D-O-G, St. Louis, MO

D-O-G (pronounced dee-OH-gee) is the fearless live-in cat at Duo, Inc. His job is to provide unique behavioral training for dogs who are themselves in a two-year program where they will learn to either assist people with mobility and hearing impairments or provide emotional support to children and adults as they navigate the legal system.

D-O-G helps these dogs become comfortable around other animals, including cats, and avoid distractions as they focus on their work. D-O-G’s presence has proven to have a positive impact on Duo’s dogs, and the once homeless cat is now considered instrumental in helping service dogs get the training they need to support people all over the country and in Europe.

For his dogged dedication to helping other animals become effective and comfortable support animals, D-O-G is deserving of the ASPCA Cat of the Year Award.

Jodi Anderson, co-founder of How I met My Dog, joins us to discuss a web service they started that through a very extensive algorithm helps shelters and rescues rehome dogs by matching very detailed criteria for the best pairing. Every match is a custom match.

* 30 levels of human & dog compatibility

* Great dogs from trusted rescues & families

*  streamline the paperwork, too!

Every step of the process is FREE to the shelter and free to the adopter.  The adopter pays the shelter fees direct to the shelter.

This program greatly reduces shelter returns and surrenders, and its 100% free!

Listen to the details and how this was developed out of nothing but love of dogs and rescue.
