Think a high-energy, clingy dog sounds like too much? What if that chaos is exactly what your heart needs?
In this joy-filled episode of Straight Up Dog Talk, Em and Josh chat with Kenzi about life with Dobby the Velcro Vizsla—a dog who redefined what it means to love, laugh, and keep up. From daily enrichment needs to unexpected brand collabs and content creation, Kenzi shares how one high-energy dog helped her find rhythm, joy, and a new kind of identity.

In this episode:

• Learn how enrichment supports high-energy dogs beyond just physical exercise

• Hear the emotional and daily reality of raising a Velcro dog like a Vizsla
