About this listen

 On this episode of Unleashed, Cheryl Kaye meets Brian at the dog park and hears the heartwarming story of Forrest —Brian’s very first dog at age 43—adopted through Magic City Canine, a unique prison-based training program at the Everglades Correctional Institution. Brian shares what it’s really like to finally become a dog dad: the joy, the bonding, the routines, the unexpected responsibilities, and how Forrest has fit into family life with teenagers and a cat at home. Cheryl and Brian talk dog-park dynamics, training, hand signals, ball-thief behavior, leash manners, pool safety, and the surprising ways dogs change your social life and daily rhythm. Then, in a powerful addendum, Cheryl reveals that Forrest was returned—and delivers an emotional, eye-opening message about what “returning” a dog can do to their trust, confidence, and sense of home, reminding listeners that adopting a pet must be a forever commitment.
