Quinnie's mom, Beth, shares the joy this little tornado of a pug brought into her life. She also shares some of her experiences rescuing and her thoughts on the critical role dogs play in good mental health. This one is also a must watch on youTube because there are a lot of great Quinnie appearances...plus a couple of my clowns in the background for a bit.

Meet Ceasar and his person, James. I love the communication between these two and James' ability to recognize cues from Ceasar and apply them to all of his relationships. It's not only a profound amount of self awareness but another example of the tremendous role pups play in our lives.

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
