A conversation about breed-specific dog bans and why pitbulls have an unfair rap.

 

Our experiences with housing challenges in the Bow Valley.

 

Michelle talks about her dog Cooper, a Bow Valley SPCA rescue.

 

Daisy tells us about her new rescue dog, Gunner.

 

Michelle and Daisy talk about volunteering at the YWCA and SPCA, and other ways to support local organizations that don’t involve giving cash.
