A Dog's Life with Anna Webb

We’re joined by Tyler Whitnall, a passionate conservationist who presents TV series One Zoo Three and is a zookeeper at Hertfordshire Zoo where he grew up alongside his two brothers, we chat about  the history of this family run Hertfordshire based Zoo, and its sister Big Cat Sanctuary in Kent.  Discussing the challenges of keeping the animals cool in a heatwave and how Ocado donates ‘wonky’ fruit and vegetables or dented cans to the Zoo. Thanks to Ocado’s food  ‘bank’ donation, the Zoo saves over £30,000.00 a year on food bills ,  so far allowing over £400K to be channelled into conservation and welfare projects.  As Lemurs lick on fruit ice lollies, and Sun bears smash open watermelons and tomatoes ,  we talk about this family run Zoo and is dedicated to education and conservation.

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.
