Comparing Dog Ownership in Other Countries
In this episode, Nikki talks with Amanda after she returns from her trip to Ireland. Her and Clark and some wonderful adventures but what she took away from her vacation was that dogs in Ireland are a little different than our dogs in the US. She also discusses the details on traveling with a dog that eats a home-cooked diet and how to do it simply, even when it's international travel. We can learn a lot from other countries, and I think that the US needs to catch up to the progressiveness of other countries when it comes to our pets. http://www.dogspeak101.comhttp://www.instagram.com/dogspeak101http://www.patreon.com/dogspeakSupport the showMentioned in this episode:Decoding Aggression and Reactivity and Kieno ConferenceDecoding Aggression and Reactivity
