In my podcast, How to Have a Happy Dog Without Going for a Walk, I show you that walks aren’t the only way to keep your dog happy and healthy! I share practical tips, fun activities, and expert advice to help you enrich your dog’s life—even when walks aren’t possible.
Whether it’s due to bad weather, injury, or simply because your dog finds walks stressful, this podcast is all about exploring creative ways to keep your dog mentally and physically stimulated. Each episode is packed with actionable advice, a fun fact about me, and an activity of the week that you can try with your dog straight away.
If you’re new to podcasts, they’re like a free radio show that you can listen to whenever it suits you—on your phone, tablet, or computer. You can subscribe to my podcast for free on popular platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or Amazon Music, and each new episode will be ready for you to enjoy every Friday at 7am.
I created this podcast to help pet owners like you discover the joys of tricks, sensory games, scent work, and relaxation exercises—all designed to build trust and connection with your dog. My approach is rooted in science, compassion, and years of experience working with pet dogs in all kinds of situations.
Whether you’re a busy dog owner, have a reactive dog, or just want to mix up your routine, this podcast will inspire you to keep your dog happy—without having to rely on the daily walk.
So why not give it a listen? It’s completely free, and your dog will love you for it!
