A Dog's Life with Anna Webb: Daily Summaries Delivered
by Anna Webb, Mike Hanson
Dogs. They’re companions, guardians, and much much more – they complete us. And they just might save us from ourselves. Anna Webb explores all levels of modern dog ownership and brings to life why every dog is extraordinary. She speaks to scientists and experts - people who have and are changing our understanding of dogs - on everything from emotional intelligence to nutrition to behaviour, delving deep into subjects like homeopathy, telepathic communication and the pet food scandal. It's thought provoking, alternative, and not a little subversive.

No Need To Walk Alone
We’re joined by Ry Webster, the founder of MorePaws, a clever app which helps dog owners connect with other local dog owners, businesses and services. It allows people to set up local dog walks, large or small or one to ones, encouraging a community spirit around their dogs. Whether it's setting up local walks, it's an App that helps bring the digital world into the park. Understanding that walking in Winter can affect dogs with their exercise routine reduced by 53% (according to Dogs Trust), MorePaws has launched a new National initiative called ' No Need To Walk Alone', a campaign to bring the benefits of the App into play by allowing dog owners to easily invite and set up walks together on dark Winter evenings. A worrying statistic is that 82% of women are afraid of walking alone in the dark - but with MorePaws , it’s easy to make sure that nobody walks their dog alone in the dark this Winter.Visit morepaws.co.uk and follow on Instagram For more about Zooomy and Naturaw, including A Dog's Life discounts you can use, go to the 'Anna Recommends' page at annawebb.co.ukMusic and production by Mike Hanson for Pod People ProductionsCover art by JaijoCover photo by Rhian Ap Gruffydd at Gruff Pawtraits

The PDSA PAW Report
We’re joined by PDSA Vet, Anna Ewers-Clark, discussing this year’s annual animal well being PAW report where dogs are the focus. Revealing that one in five owners do no research before getting a pet, while just 16% investigate the costs, as PDSA highlights concerning gaps in animal care the proportion of owners doing no research before getting a pet has risen from 13% to 21% in just two years. Meanwhile, just 16% researched the cost of pet ownership, down from 24% in 2024, raising concerns about whether owners fully understand the lifelong commitment involved. PDSA warns that owners may unknowingly put their pets at risk of preventable health and behavioural problems because they do not fully understand their animals' needs. The report also highlights potential welfare concerns, with almost a third of dogs (32%) walked for no more than 30 minutes a day, while 32% of dog owners have used at least one adversive training method and 12% have not trained their dog at all. Meanwhile, 43% of rabbits are reported to live alone despite being highly social animals, and 43% of rabbit owners say their pet spends between 11 and 23 hours a day confined to a hutch. More than three-fifths (61%) of pet owners found their pet online, including through advertising sites and social media, where PDSA warns irresponsible breeding and re-homing practices can be difficult to identify.Find out more at pdsa.org.uk or follow their Instagram @teampdsaFor more about Zooomy and Naturaw, including A Dog's Life discounts you can use, go to the 'Anna Recommends' page at annawebb.co.ukMusic and production by Mike Hanson for Pod People ProductionsCover art by JaijoCover photo by Rhian Ap Gruffydd at Gruff Pawtraits

God Save the Beagles!
This week we're joined by musician, actor, and activist Collette Cooper about her campaign to raise awareness of MBR Acres that breeds beagles for experimentation. Collette, a long time supporter of Camp Beagle, wanted to do more than protest so along with Lois Winstone, came up with an idea of a punk-style 'Free the Beagles' T-shirt that could be sold to help raise money and awareness. Fashion designer, Gresham Blake, then got involved and designed the T-shirt and suggested the slogan 'God Save the Beagles' and famed photographer Rankin did the photo shoot. All money raised goes to Beagle Freedom Project UK.Get you T-shirts at greshamblake.com and follow Collette on @collettcooperFor more about Zooomy and Naturaw, including A Dog's Life discounts you can use, go to the 'Anna Recommends' page at annawebb.co.ukMusic and production by Mike Hanson for Pod People ProductionsCover art by JaijoCover photo by Rhian Ap Gruffydd at Gruff Pawtraits

The Wonders of Hyaluronic Acid with Vet Humphrey Grimmett
We’re joined by Vet, Dr Humphrey Grimmett, discussing why adding long chain oral Hyaluronic Acid (HA) can help balance the body’s HA resources as it naturally depletes with age.Playing a key role as nature’s ‘sponge’ or shock absorber, HA is a compound dogs produce naturally, but its production slows down with age or after injury. This can impact on mobility as one of the main purposes of HA is to cushion the moveable joints, the knees, hips, and shoulders enabling them to move smoothly, rather than becoming stiff and potentially causing pain. We chat about other factors that HA contributes to in human’s as well as dogs and of course cats too! This includes eye health and skin health. But Humphrey points out that the HA found in face creams is a short chain form, whereas taken orally the long chain has been scientifically proven to be absorbed more efficiently.

Gordon Maclellan Returns
We’re joined by Orthopedic Surgeon, Gordon Maclellan, chewing the fat on several issues, not least environmental factors implicating many health conditions, like hip dysplasia and undescended testicles. We discuss the benefits of Ultrasound over X-rays, and why Ultrasound in the Veterinary profession arguably could be optimised more in line with the use of Ultrasound in human medicine. We also discuss aspects of epi-genetics and how the environment from the water we drink and the food we eat can influence individual DNA expression and why products often used in the home like air fresheners contribute to an indoor environment often considered over three times more toxic than outdoors. We talk about testing before treating not only with Titre Tests and why ultra sounds are gradually more commonly being used for diagnosis.
