ALL THINGS DOG!
Causeway Coast Dog Rescue's 'All things DOG' podcast, is about: sharing information on having a dog; responsible dog ownership; legislation around dog and companion animal welfare; who does what in government when it comes to dogs and animal welfare; speaking to those who are professionals in animal welfare and to those who have dogs who love to share their personal experiences! This Podcast is about 'all things dog'!.
We will also chat about companion animal welfare, and some of the other animals which enrich our lives and what we need to know to support and protect their health and well being.
CCDR is a charity supported by your donations, and we lobby for reform. Will will also include discussions on these much needed areas for reform, gaps in legislation, policies and process and why these issues are important to both animals as well as our own health and well being - 'One Health'.
