Pet abandonment has reached record highs, and this week we're joined by Linda Cantle, Director of Operations of Woodgreen, explaining why pet rescue shouldn't start at the point of relinquishment. We talk about the Charity’s hard hitting campaign that revealed why a third of Brits have given up a pet, but nearly three quarters didn't want to!
The charity offers help with behaviour and veterinary costs, and helps pet parents in their homes people in their homes. All to provide necessary support to people struggling.
Their teams aim to keep pets and their people together taking the pressure of re-homing centres already bursting at the seams.

We’re joined by Debbie Wilson of the International Animal Coalition (IAWPC) and Actor, Animal Activist and Advocate, Peter Egan discussing the latest on the campaign to end the violent and inhumane killing of street dogs in Morocco. Thousands of stray street dogs have been killed by either by extreme violence, being shot or poisoned. The reason - the forthcoming FIFA World Cup in 2030, which Morocco is co-hosting alongside Portugal and Spain. Despite being informed by the International Coalition - IAWPC that Morocco is in clear breach of all recognised and acceptable standards of civilised behaviour in relation to the humane treatment, welfare and protection of dogs, as well as in clear breach of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child., FIFA has refused to comment or take action. It's a moment to remember what Mahatma Gandhi famously said: “The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."

We’re joined by Dr Greger Larson of Oxford University who specialises in studying Ancient DNA, discussing the remains of a jawbone, which proved that dogs were living with humans in Britain almost 15,000 years ago. As a landmark find with DNA confirming its identity as not being a wolf, it proves that humans and dogs were co-habiting more than 5,000 years earlier than previously thought. At a time before humans had become farmers, these dogs clearly played a big part in these human communities, with proof they were even buried beside their people - man’s best friend.

We’re joined by Author and Photographer, Paul Koudounaris, who has previously been on the show talking about Pet Cemeteries in his book Faithful unto Death. Today we’re chatting about railroad dogs and his latest book called Go West Young Dog. As a really fascinating read, the book uncovers a somewhat hidden pocket of canine history about some brave, vagabond dogs that became famous by traveling - alone- on the world's first rail networks. Paul concentrates on the American dogs, not that there weren’t ‘railroad’ dogs in other continents. Many of these dogs gained ‘celebrity’ status - their stories are funny, heartwarming, triumphant, and tragic, or all at the same time. As Paul says: 'I believe that within those stories, these dogs have some lessons to teach us.'

We’re joined by Actor, Activist and Broadcaster, Peter Egan, who is talking about why he is campaigning and raising awareness for the seven million hens in the UK are kept in so-called “enriched cages”, where each bird has space roughly the size of an A4 sheet of paper, preventing them from fully stretching their wings, foraging or dust bathing. Campaigners say the UK is falling behind several European countries on animal welfare, with Austria banning enriched cages in 2020, France banning new cage systems in 2018 and Germany now fully cage-free. Peter also chats about his work as a huge advocate for dogs, not least in being a Patron for the charity that Anna is an Ambassador for - All Dogs Matter!

We’re joined by Danny Nelis-Rouse, founder of Tug E Nuff, the enrichment and training range of dog toys. Designed and made in the UK by the family run business, we chat about these toys are practical and great for all dogs. Helping owners to engage, have fun, and get the best out of the dog, simply by giving them great games of chase, tug, retrieve, searching and much more. They’re designed for pet parents to tap into their dogs natural instincts through ‘proactive playtime’. Adding enrichment to your dog’s day comes in many shapes and sizes. And depends on your dog’s individual personality, but dogs and dogs, and igniting their inner dog, will help you bond, and have fun both ways. Plus working both their mental and physical dexterity is so important, especially in senior pooches to help create focus and keep them on the ball.

With Crufts just three days away, we’re so excited to be chatting to Naturaw’s Founder, Jess Warneken, on the company’s sponsorship of the Flyball team, Junkyard Dogs.
Competing at this year’s most prestigious global canine event, we’re also joined by the team captain, Cheryl Quinn, who discusses why the pressure is on!
She explains the training involved - and that’s not just for the dogs - and why it’s such a community driven sport and highly competitive.
Teaching the dogs to remain focused, takes time and commitment with weekly training sessions. Cheryl believes any dog can enjoy Flyball, but at a high competition level, the dogs are chosen for their commitment to their team spirit, and for their individual skills. Some have more speed to gain time, whilst others have others combine speed with accuracy that’s needed to prevent any faults.
Every Flyball team must incorporate at least one pure bred dog , which in Junkyard’s case is a Border Collie, others can be any cross breed, with Lurchers being firm favourites.
Naturaw is thrilled to support Junkyard Dogs! As the sport requires dogs to be in peak condition to win with speed and precision, the team is fed Naturaw for this reason. Helping to fuel them for optimum health from the inside out.
No matter what, it’s about having fun, the dogs have been acclimatised to the atmosphere , the roar of the crowds and the many distractions - sights , sounds and smells that can overwhelm many dogs.
As always everyone at Crufts no mater what takes their best dog home!
