Fashion Designer and animal activist aren’t traditionally two descriptions you’d hear about one person. But with John Bartlett’s illustrious career in fashion AND angelic reputation as fierce animal advocate, it makes complete sense. He’s just launched a podcast interview series called Dog Save The People about how dogs make our lives better.
John says;
The simple idea behind the show is how the selfless act of caring for a dog transforms who we are as a person. Dog Save The People is a way to share more of the stories of people and their dogs, and bring the canine community together through the beautiful medium of a podcast. The show features dogs of all breeds, shapes, sizes, and walks of life-as well as people from a mix of backgrounds, locations and occupations. Dogs have the ability to help us see the world in a new way, with more exciting and curious eyes.
Each week they feature a special guest telling their story about their emotional and spiritual connection to their dog. You can find the podcast at dogsavethepeople.com and listen here for John’s introduction to the show.
