Kristen and Chris dive deep into two fascinating stories: one of adventure and one of animal behavior expertise. 

First, we are joined by motivational speaker and photographer Tom Turcich, who shares his awe-inspiring story of walking around the world with his loyal dog, Savannah. Over the course of seven years, Tom and Savannah covered 28,000 miles, traversing six continents and 38 countries, making them the first man-dog duo to ever achieve this feat. Tom reflects on his journey, the unique bond he formed with Savannah, and how this experience shaped both of their lives. He also talks about his memoir, The World Walk, which details his extraordinary adventure.

Next, we speak with Dr. Roger Mugford, Britain’s leading animal behaviorist and founder of Company of Animals. Dr. Mugford provides invaluable insights into the world of animal psychology, sharing tips on positive reinforcement training and the power of gentle, effective communication with dogs. He also discusses the invention of the Halti Headcollar, a revolutionary tool that has helped countless dog owners handle their pets more humanely.
