I love podcasts and I'm usually binging episodes daily, but I've fallen off the podcast train because all of them are now sneaking in their political opinions. Often, you will find me screaming “More Housewives, Less Politics!!!” It was cool when actors and other entertainment folks started podcasts (The Armchair Expert is the best), but they're humans too and I don't blame them for wanting to use their platforms to share their thoughts and opinions; but I don't want to hear it.

So, I'm on the hunt for new podcasts to follow and I've decided that I'd like to follow podcasts about dogs.

I don't have time to take online courses or earn a second degree, but I'm hungry for knowledge about dogs – dog nutrition, dog training, dog behavior, dog breeds, and more. The following is a list of podcasts (in no particular order) that I plan to check out:

My Podcasts (with Friends)

Each week, we chat about or dogs, sometime we have guests, and we're looking forward to doing Live events. We're having a blast.

22 – The Alternative Dog Moms Podcast – in 2022, I shared that I wanted a fun podcast about dogs that delved into the pet industry and Fresh Food community and Erin Scott of the Believe in Dog podcast was having the same thoughts. So, we came together to launch a podcast and we have a blast. We talk about books, studies, brands we love, and, sometimes, we take a left and talk about Sex in the City or some other pop culture happening.
