Welcome to Maine’s radio show and podcast all about dogs and cats and the people that share their lives. Our goal is to inform and educate you about the needs and wants of your furry friends so that your lives together can be the best that they can be. 
Kate and I discuss the latest news from the pet world covering a wide range of topics such as; basic healthcare, how to choose a good cat or dog food, training, behavior, and management of your pet, resolving problem behavior, serious health issues, and more. Sometimes a show is just the two of us having a conversation, but we also have guests on the shows from our hometown, Bangor, ME and from all throughout the USA. Veterinarians, authors, trainers, behaviorists, filmmakers, shelter managers, and others have all shared their knowledge with us on The Woof Meow Show.
Whether you listen to our podcast or to the show as it is broadcast on Saturday at 9 AM on Z62 Retro Radio AM620, WZON, and WKIT HD3, we hope you find the show enjoyable and a valuable resource and that you become a regular listener. If you have a topic you would like us to consider for the show, contact me at donh@greenacreskennel.com.

[Click to Listen] The days are getting shorter and the
temperatures are dropping so it's time for some fall and winter pet
tips.
If your pet is outdoors, make sure they always have access to fresh
water. If the temperature drops below freezing, you will need a
heater for their water bowl. Snow is not an acceptable
substitute!
If you have a long haired pet, make sure you keep them groomed and
free of matts and tangles. While long hair will act as an
insulator, it loses its insulating properties when it becomes
matted.
If your pet has long hair on its feet or in between their pads, you
may want to have your groomer cut that hair short, so it does not
accumulate snow when your pet is outdoors.
If your pet gets wet in the rain or snow, dry them off with a towel
when they come back inside.
