About this listen

With a Dog Podcast is a weekly lifestyle podcast for the modern dog parent, hosted by Carly Parish . Every Wednesday we interview a pet professional or game-changing fellow dog parent. We laugh, learn, and commiserate about everything from the confusing vet visits, to dog park etiquette, to the 2am potty breaks- essentially life WITH A DOG.

  • The (very small) Silver Lining No One Talks About When Your Dog Passes

    The (very small) Silver Lining No One Talks About When Your Dog Passes
    May 1 2024

    Host Carly gives some life updates, podcast announcements.
    Then we have a re-release episode from the Friends With A Dog paid podcast where Ashley & Carly reflect on their lives after the passing of their senior dogs. (Not a depressing episode we promise! There is a lot of laughter and funny stories!) Its taboo to say but we need to normalize how much time and energy goes into caring for a senior dog and then when they're gone, how that time and energy is now returned to you.

  • Prioritizing Physical & Behavioral Health in Dog Breeding ft. Dr. Jessica @functionalbreeding

    Prioritizing Physical & Behavioral Health in Dog Breeding ft. Dr. Jessica @functionalbreeding
    Apr 24 2024

    In this conversation, Carly welcomes Dr. Jessica Hekman, the creator of The Functional Dog Collaborative, to the podcast. The FDC was founded to support the breeding and raising of purebred, outcrossed, and mixed-breed dogs while prioritizing the physical and behavioral health. The FDC considers these functional goals more important than strict breed standard or closed studbook.

    Topics covered:

    • The Functional Dog Collaborative (FDC) and it's aim to support responsible breeding practices and improve genetics and socialization in dogs.
    • Functional breeding means breeding dogs that are physically and behaviorally healthy and resilient.
    • Common genetic problems in dog breeds can be seen in extreme morphologies, (like brachycephalic faces) or traits that were not intentionally bred for (like epilepsy and shortened lifespans).
    • Different approaches to breeding like outcrossing and creating new breeds, can address health issues.
    • The current dog culture faces challenges in accepting new breeding practices and changing ideologies.
    • Education and resources are needed to guide puppy seekers in finding responsible breeders.
    • How the Functional Dog Collaborative aims to change the incentive structure in dog breeding through initiatives like the Data Canis platform.
