God Save the Beagles!

This week we're joined by musician, actor, and activist Collette Cooper about her campaign to raise awareness of MBR Acres that breeds beagles for experimentation. Collette, a long time supporter of Camp Beagle, wanted to do more than protest so along with Lois Winstone, came up with an idea of a punk-style 'Free the Beagles' T-shirt that could be sold to help raise money and awareness. Fashion designer, Gresham Blake, then got involved and designed the T-shirt and suggested the slogan 'God Save the Beagles' and famed photographer Rankin did the photo shoot. All money raised goes to Beagle Freedom Project UK.

Get you T-shirts at greshamblake.com and follow Collette on @collettcooper

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.
