How Dogs Improve Our Lives with the American Kennel Club

This week on Celebrations Chatter, Brandi Hunter Munden, Vice President of PR and Communications at the American Kennel Club, shares how dogs can help us live a happier, healthier, and more fulfilling life.   For more than 130 years, the American Kennel Club has been America's premier resource for dog lovers, encouraging dogs as family companions, advancing canine health, advocating for dog owner rights, and educating the public about responsible dog ownership. AKC knows that being a dog lover is not a pastime; it's a way of life – and they want to help dog owners make every moment count.   Jim and Brandi discuss the benefits behind dog ownership and the ways it affects us, and share their own personal stories of how they've seen dogs change their lives and the lives of others.     New podcast episodes released weekly on Thursday.
