    Great stories about the bond between dogs and their humans!
    This podcast is AH-MAZING. It never fails in giving me all the feels. Whenever I’m a little sad, a little lost, need a good happy cry, or maybe beginning to lose my faith in humanity in a little bit…I come here. Thank you Laura for this beautiful tribute to pups and their people!

    Incredible stories by and for dog people
    I love this podcast! Incredible and interesting stories about the human dog connection. Host Laura treats the topic with reverence and dignity, also humor and joy. She lets the stories speak for themselves as an interviewer. You’ll laugh and cry, and if you’re like my, feel connected to other animal people in the world, a world that often feels harsh to animals and animal people. (Also I just discovered the instagram account and having a great time seeing the photos of everyone!) Thanks for putting something good in the world, and boosting stories about how important, sentient, and emotionally in tune animals are.

    Love it but…
    I love the stories. Very uplifting. My one critique is I wish the podcaster would add a link to the dogs Facebook page, Instagram, etc. if they have one. A picture of the dog would be awesome also! To put a face with the story. Please consider doing both!

    The stories are so uplifting
    I’ve listened to the stories from time to time, and I’ve loved every single one. Yes sometimes they’re sad because our dogs are our your family members and of course, eventually they pass. But every story has such a positive uplifting message to it. I especially loved the story about honey the cocker spaniel rescuing her owner, I don’t know what number episode but it’s the most recent one. Thank you so much for doing this podcast. It is lovely.

    I love Sean and Marigold’s story from February 25, 2023
    Another heart warming engaging story, especially poignant because Marigold has shown amazing resilience recovering from abuse to become Sean’s vibrant soul mate. I fell in love with the dog just listening to her story. Thank you, Thank you Laura for making the world a better place by sharing these stories of love and life.
