Love this podcast!

As an Anglophile & dog lover, I adore this podcast! It is a bright light in my sea of current events podcasts. I doubt that my Coonhound Molly would be as well-behaved as Matilda though! ❤️

Fun show, spontaneous, different

I like Dogs in the City. it's different, it's spontaneous, it's unusual, and it's happy (unlike a lot of podcasts). I like hearing about London - parts of it that I don't know. The spontaneity and moving-along-ness of Dogs in the City is so refreshing: It's not every podcast in which you can hear the moment - right in the middle of the owner and host talking - when the Jack Russell mix runs off home AND remembers to use the crosswalk, a.k.a. zebra crossing.
