Tripawds Podcast Episode #131: We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Nancy Kay back to the show for an important discussion about animal welfare and the hard decisions pet owners face about amputation for their four legged friends. Dr. Kay is one of the first voices who taught us how important it is to advocate for our pets. So if you’ve ever walked into a vet clinic feeling overwhelmed or unsure what questions to ask, you’ll love this episode!

  • Know what to think about when your vet recommends amputation for your pet.
  • Get practical tips, real-world examples, and a gentle reminder that it’s okay to slow down, ask questions, and trust your gut when making veterinary care decisions.
  • Plus, Dr. Kay shares how you can gently help educate middle-grade kids about puppy mills, through her brand-new book, A Dog Named 647. This middle-grade story gently tackles the tough truth about puppy mills through an age-appropriate story that kids can’t put down.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
