In this episode, we bring back Melissa Terzis of East Coast Corgi Rescue and ask for her unfiltered explanation of how things have happened this way. Our cherished rescue groups and shelters are experiencing more owner surrenders than they can handle across the nation. Many have had to stop accepting surrenders.

We ask that you have an open mind as we explore the myriad of events and human mistakes that have caused this to occur. We also explain how you can help: purchasing mindfully from a responsible and reputable breeder when you are ready and have fully researched your breed of choice (we happen to know about corgis) at a time when you are truly ready for a new family member, or what to consider when rescuing. Thank you for your support!

Jenny Lane searched through the AKC website to find a breeder nearby. Thinking that choosing from the registry would help guide her to the right one, she found Murphy.

After receiving unpleasant exchanges with the breeder after informing him about Murphy's condition, she would come to learn all about the poor decisions that led to Murphy's poor health in puppyhood. Jenny shares her story with us to inform about the perils of bad breeding and why choosing an ethical breeder is so important. #podcast #corgis #ethicalbreeder #puppymillsurvivor

When lockdown happened, so much changed for most of us. This includes our pets! Many became new pet owners. Animal Control and Welfare professional Shelly Meeks joins us to talk about ways to enrich our pets' lives as we've gone back to offices and classes after being home with them for nearly two years in many cases.
