    Cadaver Dogs - An Interview with Debera Salo

    Cadaver Dogs - An Interview with Debera Salo

    Hi everyone. This episode is about cadaver dogs, an interview with Debera Salo, who is a member of the Ontario Search and Recovery Canines. Yes! Cadaver dogs. You heard right. Ontario Search and Recovery Canines consists of humans with canines with independent certifications and countless hours of training, dedicating themselves to the ongoing search for missing persons in Ontario, Canada.  The dogs are certified in human remains detection for wilderness, rural, water recovery, cold case, forensic and historic remains.  I don’t know about you, but this sounds absolutely fascinating and I’m super excited to talk to Debera about her retired cadaver dog Ella and her working dog Rinnie.  So, let’s get to it!

    Pets Are Family - An Interview With Erika Sinner

    Hi everyone and thanks for joining me on this episode of Val Talk’s Pets. On this
    episode I have a guest with me who is a first time author and I think you are going
    to be quite enlightened with regards to the topic.
    Erika Sinner is the author of Pets are Family. Now I know that everyone listening knows that, but how many of you are given any bereavement time if you have one of your fur kids pass away?
    I bet that has peaked your interest.  So settle in with your fur baby and join Erika and I to learn more.
