About this episode
Michael Mapes discusses his mission to rescue bird dogs and find them new homes.
Michael Mapes from Second Chance Bird Dogs joins the show to explain his mission to rescue bird dogs and give them a second home. Michael shares the astounding number of phone calls he receives from dog owners that no longer want their dog, why they call him, the advice he gives them, and the steps he takes to take them in, train them, and find new homes for every dog. Michael also shares how his organization has an army of support, how he’s turned this into a full-time career, ideas to help everyone come alongside families struggling with their own bird dogs, and ways to support dogs that need a second chance. @secondchancebirddogs Presented by: Walton’s (waltons.com/), OnX Maps (onxmaps.com/), GAIM Hunting & Shooting Simulator (https://alnk.to/74wKReb), Black Gold Explorer Dog Food (blackgoldpet.com/), Hunt Fish SD (huntfishsd.com/), Aberdeen SD (aberdeensd.com/), RuffLand Kennels (rufflandkennels.com/), Minnesota Horse and Hunt Club (horseandhunt.com/), & Hoksey Native Seeds (https://hokseynativeseeds.com) See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info .
