    Who Gets the Last Laugh?

    Who Gets the Last Laugh?

    In this episode, Dr. Chris Tufnell and Gabrielle Hase debate whether it's ever ok to laugh at your pet, despite the mini YouTube industry that does just that. We take a brief detour into the weighty subject of how pets are used to express their owners' own personalities, and why antlers on dogs are never, ever a good idea.  Just don't.

    Licking is Believing

    Licking is Believing

    In one of our most popular episode formats, we cover the latest in pet-tech – our judgemental, ill-informed but no less valid opinions about the various pet accessories and tech products that are aimed at pet parents. This episode features the Licky Brush for cats (you read that right), the iFetch dog ball thrower, the Ruffit dog carrier, the Bath Buddy and more ways that pet parents can outsource the very basic elements of owning a pet (just throw the darn thing yourself!).

A good listen

I was on my way to Liverpool, so I had a listen. It was fantastic!!! Time well spent, would definitely recommend to others. Chris Tuffnell and Gabriella are very engaging, and had a good discussion. The editing is done to a standard, that you would expect from a professional podcast.

Loved every minute!!!!

Well done

@inma_martinez ,

Love the Podcasts. You had me at "To Dangle or Not To Dangle"

I was recommended your podcast so I listened to your latest one and then had to back-listen all the other ones. I find the topics very real and not covered by media. For example, I did see the ads for this pet treats dispenser plus home web cam and often wondered if this gadget was goingn to end up being counter-productive for home pets whose owners spend over 5+ hours away at workd each day. I'm one of those. The comments and the advice on this and other gadgets sounded to me sound and objective and I also enjoy the banter "America vs. English" take on life, vocabulary and mindsets. Well done CatDogFish podcast team!
