Customer Reviews
Big thumbs up!
I’m so grateful for Kayla and many other guests she had on her podcast. This helped me with many different topics with two different dogs and it is truly educational and fun to listen to! Keep up the good work Kayla!
So grateful to have found this podcast!
So I have been intrigued by the idea of “Canine Conservation” for a few years, but struggled to find much info available to the general public. I could find professional Canine Conservation companies online who offered their scientific services for hire, but I did not know where to look to learn more. I had searched podcasts several times but I must not have been not putting in the correct search terms. Luckily, I came across Kayla Fratt’s K9 Conservationists podcast and have had a hard time it turning off! I have learned so much and I am so grateful that she has taken the time and energy to share her love and knowledge of this intriguing topic. The episodes are quite informative and Kayla also manages to keep them light and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this podcast to anyone is interested in wildlife conservation or anyone who is interested in the fascinating world of working dogs.
Love the show!
This is one of my favorite podcasts! The host is very thoughtful and interviews a variety of interesting guests. But the thing I like most is that the topics are quite varied, from training to ecology to safety issues to how to grow the field of conservation dog work and more.
