About this episode
Seattle is a super dog-friendly city, so it may surprise you to hear that local shelters are overflowing with pups in need of homes. The crunch has a lot to do with after effects of the dog boom during the pandemic, and it's sounding alarms for people caring for these critters. We visit veterinarian Cardin Kennedy at the Seattle Animal Shelter and meet a pack of sweet dogs up for adoption.
