In this episode, I join my brother on The Matt Marney Podcast to talk all things dogs, wellbeing, and the unique bond we share with our four-legged friends.

We cover:

• Why breed-specific needs matter and how to meet them day to day
• The power of enrichment, especially through scent work
• How sleep affects your dog’s mood and behaviour
• Subtle signs your dog might be in pain or feeling unwell
• Tips for reading body language and understanding comfort levels
• What to think about before choosing a doggy day care
• Simple changes that can boost your dog’s sense of safety at home

It’s a warm, practical conversation packed with ideas you can start using right away to help your dog feel happier, healthier, and more secure — and to make life together a little easier for everyone.

I sit down with Certified IMDT Dog Trainer Anna Bradshaw to explore the exciting world of dog parkour.

Dog parkour is a fun, accessible activity that uses everyday surroundings to help dogs build confidence, reduce anxiety, and strengthen their bond with their humans. Anna explains how parkour can be done with very minimal equipment, making it suitable for dogs of all ages, breeds, and abilities.

We cover how parkour:

• Builds confidence and supports anxious or nervous dogs
• Helps with reactivity by giving dogs focus and achievable challenges
• Strengthens the human–dog relationship through teamwork and trust
• Brings joy and variety to daily walks and training sessions
• Can be started anywhere — from your local park to your living room

If you’ve ever wanted to try something new with your dog, or if you’re looking for ways to boost confidence and connection, this episode is packed with insight and practical tips.

Tune in and discover why parkour might be the perfect next adventure for you and your dog!

I sit down with Clare Ware, specialist dog trainer and founder of Insight Hounds, to explore the wonderful world of sighthounds. Clare shares her expertise on what makes greyhounds, whippets, lurchers, and salukis so unique—and why they can be both the easiest and trickiest dogs to live with. Clare runs Insight Hounds, offering sighthound-specific training with ex-racing greyhounds as her speciality. She helps families build confidence, communication, and connection with their hounds through kind, practical, reward-based training – available both online and in person.

In this wonderful episode Cheryl and Clare discuss:

• The quirks that make sighthounds so loveable (and sometimes baffling)
• Common myths around ex-racing greyhounds and rescue hounds
• Prey drive, recall, and why traditional training doesn’t always work
• Adjusting to life with a retired racer—from sofas to slippery floors
• Enrichment and lifestyle tips for happy, healthy sighthounds
• Clare’s journey into dog training and her most memorable success stories

Whether you already share your sofa with a lanky hound or you’re just curious about these elegant dogs, this episode is packed with insights, laughs, and practical advice.
