So You Want to Run a Dog Rescue

Hold onto your butts for Season 2 of "So You Want to Run a Dog Rescue?", a raw and behind the scenes look at the day to day of running the largest foster-based dog rescue in the Pacific Northwest. In this inaugural episode, hosts Jenny Nordin and Ashlyn Kauh present the 12 Days of Christmas Crazy Folder, including highlights like such as a Chris, a man desperate for help with his "rabid" dog, and Gabriel, who reportedly has an IQ of 143 but was flummoxed by an adoption application. Plus, they answer not one, but all of the audience questions in animated banter, with jewels like "funniest looking dog to come through the rescue" as well as practical discussion on serious topics like rehoming and family planning. Disclaimer: This episode is unfiltered and unedited. (Mostly: Even though Jenny is now a Type B masquerading as a Type A, some habits die hard.)

​​​In this episode, hosts Jenny Nordin and Ashlyn Kauh feature Dr. Mona Radeshwar, former owner of Third & Stewart Animal Wellness and their esteemed veterinarian partner, who discusses the trend of corporate ownership on veterinary care and its implications for pets, their owners and veterinarians alike.

Jenny and Ashlyn discuss a newly published and highly controversial scientific study that supports the use of e-collars to manage chasing behaviors (read: prey drive) in dogs. What is the "controversy" and what does it all mean? They reflect on their own histories and experiences with e-collars -- including that one time Rolex nearly ate the roommate's kitten -- and how literally they can be life saving tools.
