Description

This week, Jenny and Ashlyn talk about stress and its toxic omnipresence in dog rescue work. Most rescues fail in the first year due to burnout, so how do they cope? As Ashlyn says, “Be like a dog – just kick some grass over that shit and move on.” Plus, Jenny reminisces on Neva – the crazy ass should’ve been a working German Shepherd foster dog who ruined date night.
