Dog Chats - Love this podcast

I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts about dogs because I’m a first-time adopter. I love this podcast because of the chemistry between Emma and Kirsten. They’re both very positive “chatters” and it’s a joy to listen. And of course the advice has been so helpful to me, a really valuable resource, this podcast!
