Dog Parents

from Nature, Nurture & Nonsense · host Rutendo Shackleton

In this week’s episode, Rutendo and the siblings are talking all about pets! For many of us, our first relationship with nature begins with the animals we share our homes with. For our family, that’s meant many pets over the years—past and present.We chat about the difference between being a dog “parent” vs. a dog “owner,” the ups and downs of life with pets, and the lessons they’ve taught us. From memorable (and chaotic!) pet moments to the origin story of Chances the cat, we’ve got plenty of stories to share. We also dive into the ancient relationship between humans and dogs—and why it still matters today.But most importantly, we get to just gush about our pets, and honestly, what’s better than that?!
