2.3: WA State Takes on Puppyland While We Take on Parvo Puppies

Episode 2.3 delves into the gut-wrenching (and sleep-depriving) world of caring for parvo puppies, revealing the compassion resilience necessary for medical cases specifically, and dog rescue generally. Jenny and Ashlyn then spill the tea on Puyallup based Puppyland getting slapped with a 3.75M fine for selling sick puppy mill dogs at insane interest rates and opine on the broader implications of the ruling. Finally, PETA lands in the Crazy Folder, alongside fanatical "trainers" who think crates are cruel; the hosts shred this bonkers claim and share actually useful information on what to do if your pup says 'nope' to the crate.

Stay tuned after the episode for cuss-inducing recording mishaps and brain farts.
