Unmuzzled: A Pawdcast with Sarah Lauch

A few weeks ago, I happened upon a live tik tok where Rachel was doing readings for pet parents. I had briefly seen this before, but wanted to find out more. Much to my shock, anyone can "train" to communicate with animals, you just have to "let them in" by using a sign. Rachel has helped many clients connect with their lost pets and in this conversation, though I had some doubts about this, she tells us that meaningful connection means a lot to grieving pet parents. #petloss #podcast #animalcommunicator

"Birds are not meant to live in cages. Birds should not. be pets." Pete is an investigator that helps to expose inhumane treatment of animals from farmland to puppy mills and pet stores. This is an eye-opening podcast about bird mills. It is really astonishing how the birds that feed into pet stores live and die, including being suffocating by the breeders. Absolutely awful. This podcast does contain some tough subject matter and photos if you watch on video. For more about SEED investigations: https://www.seedundercoverinvestigations.com/
