About this episode

In the inaugural episode, hosts Nathalie and Dakota introduce themselves and discuss their motivations for starting the podcast focused on the service dog community.

In this very first episode of The Golden Sheltie Podcast, we’re introducing ourselves, Nathalie & Dakota, and of course, our dogs Pluto the Golden Retriever and Fidget the Sheltie. We’ll share a bit about our journeys as handlers, what inspired us to start this podcast, and why we believe the service dog community deserves more honesty, advocacy, and real conversations. Consider this your backstage pass into who we are, what we’ve been through, and what you can expect from the episodes ahead.
