Dr Alex George

Today, we’re bringing you a very special episode of Walking The Dog! We’ve teamed up with Dr Alex George and his brilliant podcast Stompcast to take a special walk, thanks to ManyPets pet insurance.We met Alex and his adorable dog Rolo on London’s Clapham Common. Ray didn’t join us on this one - we promise he wasn’t being lazy - but it was a hot day when we met Alex and because Raymond is elderly and his breed is particularly sensitive to heat, we decided to let him sit this one out.Dr Alex is a presenter, bestselling author and podcaster. As a former A&E doctor - Alex has used his platform to become a leading advocate for making mental health support more accessible for everyone.We chatted to Alex about how dogs can help connect you to people and how our pets can be a real support during tough times. We also spoke about the deep emotional bonds we can have with our pets and how it’s important to be there for them when they need us the most.Follow @dralexgeorge on InstagramFollow @thestompcast on InstagramAlex’s fantastic podcast Stompcast is available on all podcast platforms!https://manypets.com/uk/?utm_medium=podcast&utm_source=walking-the-dog&utm_campaign=branded-episodeFollow Emily: Instagram - @emilyrebeccadeanX - @divine_miss_emWalking The Dog is produced by Faye Lawrence - with thanks to the Stompcast team for editing and production on this episodeMusic: Rich Jarman Artwork: Alice LudlamPhotography: Karla Gowlett  Hosted on Acast.
