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.

What is A Dog's Life with Anna Webb?

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.
