It’s the end of the year, so we took the chance to review the podcast. I still can’t believe that we’ve being doing this for a year now and had the chance to talk to so many people, about the great work they’re doing in relation to animal welfare.

It would be great, if you get a chance to go through the back catalogue and listen to some of the older episodes, but we wanted to highlight a few different things.

1. Education – this has been discussed in every single episode – in relation to the veterinary profession, owners, the public, government and just about everyone!


2. Charities are essential for animal welfare – we caught up with Dogs Trust, SSPCA, USPCA and Humanimal Trust and found out more about the scope of work that they undertake


3. People – animal welfare is inextricably linked to the welfare of people. Where there are problems with society, then there are problems with animal welfare.
