  • Summary

  • Dogs have been our faithful companions for centuries, and there's no denying the special bond we share with them. From service dogs to companion dogs, they enrich us in countless ways. And even though we may not always realise it, there are also many things that we can do to enrich their lives. We're excited to announce our new podcast, "The DogPod: How dogs enrich our lives." Every fortnight, we'll be sharing stories about how dogs have enriched our lives and tips on how we can return the favour. We'll also interview experts on everything from dog psychology to animal welfare. So whether you're a dog lover or just looking for some feel-good stories, we hope you'll tune in!

    If you own a hobby farm or have livestock on your property, then this episode is worth listening to.

    We delve into the topic of guardian dogs and how they can assist farmers and landowners in protecting their animals from predators.

    We cover the basics of starting out with a guardian dog, as well as the precautions to take. If you haven't considered a guardian dog before, this episode will provide you with new insights and alternatives to stock protection and management.

  • Animal Welfare, Veterinary Outreach and Healing Energies for your Dog
    May 14 2023

    In this episode of The DogPod, I talk to Olivia Pozzan, a vet, writer, adventurer, and reiki master.

    Olivia shares her experiences working with animal welfare organisations, veterinary outreach projects, and her knowledge of healing energies for pets.

    She has worked with an Arabian prince in the Middle East, on remote outback cattle stations, and been part of a camel expedition in the heart of Australia. Olivia's passion for animal welfare led her to work with the RSPCA in Queensland and lead her own veterinary outreach project in Cambodia.

    She also shares her love for writing and her work as a freelance writer for Lonely Planet and the Veterinarian magazine.
