Secret Life

Are you a pet parent and animal lover who believes you would never surrender a pet? Have you heard the stories in the news about animal shelters and rescues being overwhelmed as pets are surrendered?

Do you find yourself automatically blaming COVID? Assuming that these pets were surrendered because they no longer fit people's lifestyles?

Tune in today to learn the rest of the story. COVID impacted so much more than the health of millions of people; it also impacted family units, living accomodations, finances and our support systems. When families are choosing between groceries and dog food or school supplies, gas and a necessary vet treatment, sometimes the choices are not so clear.

For anyone who has lost a pet, surrendered a pet or made these impossible choices; it is heart-wrenching.

Our guests today are Louise Yates, a former dog kennel owner and animal welfare volunteer as well as Jennifer Berg, accredited force-free dog trainer.
