In this special highlights edition of The Pawsome Companion, host Johanna Herrera brings together three remarkable stories that show just how powerful the bond between dogs and humans can be.
We begin with a touching story from RSPCA South Australia. A golden retriever, rescued from the harsh conditions of a puppy farm, finds a second chance at life. His journey from fear to trust is a reminder of what can happen when a dog is finally shown care and kindness. Making the episode even more special, King, a very large and very lovely retriever joins us in the studio for a few tail wags and cuddles.
Next, Daisy from See Differently (formerly known as Guide Dogs for the Blind) walks us through the incredible process of raising and training a guide dog. It’s not just about teaching the dog, but also about preparing the person they’ll be supporting. The detail, dedication and teamwork behind it all is inspiring.
We also hear from Sophie, a passionate trainer who works with dogs that support people living with post-traumatic stress disorder. These dogs do so much more than follow commands. They offer calm, reassurance and an emotional connection that helps people feel safe again.
Each moment in this episode offers something special. Whether it’s a story of rescue, purpose or healing, these dogs show us just how much they give and how deeply they understand what we need.
