When Tosha's son was diagnosed with Autism, she began therapy to improve his motor and social skills. In the process, she discovered that involving their dog was incredibly helpful for her son and helped with his development profoundly. This inspired her to start a non profit using therapy animals with schools and working with those with special needs. She joins us in this episode to tell us what makes a therapy animal and what qualities they look for in their dogs.References: https://pawsitivefriendships.org/

Susan Luong From Queen's Best Stumpy Dog Rescue comes back onto the show to help us get a clear picture of what is really involved in fostering for rescue. We discuss some of the common challenges when it comes to limitations and advise to be mindful of everything involved. Too often, pups will come back if the new home is not properly suited due to the new pet home not being as prepared as they thought. Susan gives us some perspective on how to prepare, what to expect, and advises to be mindful of what one will be taking on when agreeing to offer much needed help. @queensbeststumpydogrescue6672 References: https://www.queensbeststumpydogrescue.org/#corgi #rescue #rescuedog #shelterdog

Tony from Mobile Barkery joins the discussion. If you've visited major SoCal dog events, then you've likely seen their truck and maybe your pup has enjoyed their treats. He tells us about the inspiration of creating Mobile Barkery. Organic and having limited ingredients, the cookies from the truck are a big hit with pups everywhere. Tony says that the corgis are great customers due to their love of food! (who knew, right?) We also learned that you can have your own Mobile Barkery as they are now franchising!

With helpful revolutions in veterinary medicine, we now have access to all kinds of medical care for our pets! With these changes, it can sometimes be confusing as to which clinic to visit for our needs. We interviewed Kristen Andrews, a veterinary technician with over 10 years experience on the matter. She shares with us about the different types of clinics, what to expect, and gives us perspective on the point of view from veterinary staff. We certainly appreciate our vets, technicians, and all the ones helping our babies stay healthy. We learned a lot in this episode.
