A Dog's Life with Anna Webb

We’re joined by Denise Elphick, co-founder of Pets Pyjamas, the UK’s dog friendly travel agent. We chat about the concept of dog friendly, the power of the ’Hound Pound’, and why the hospitality industry is opening their doors to dogs.  Denise explains that every listing from a self catering cottage, a 5-star hotel or a pub has been curated by the Pets Pyjamas’ team.  Offering clients peace of mind and assurance that their dog will be welcomed, not  just tolerated. As stay-cationing has soared in popularity, with over 50% of all dog owners wanting to holiday with their pooch, hotel groups are becoming more inspired to welcome dogs with bespoke room service options, doggy menus, in-room hospitality from dogs beds, bowls, and toys offered. Dogs just love to be with their owners and the more proactive time together the better. Traveling to different places adds enrichment for your dog, and holidays will inevitably be more active and interactive with your dog. The majority of locations are situated close to train stations, and traveling by train can make for a less stressful journey.  Plus Pets Pyjamas insists that dogs stay for free!

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.
