It's always a good time when you're talking about puppies and well, tonight was a good time. We had the pleasure of speaking with Megan Comfort from Torg's Labs about every single step in the puppy process. First, we learn about Megan and how she got into this world and shocker, it's a wild and emotional rodeo. Everyone thinks working with puppies is all rainbows and sprinkles but holy cow is it time consuming, stressful and cute all at once.We talk with Megan about some of her memorable dogs and why she would pair them with others, what her goals are for breeding labs, why and how they breed them in an ethical manner and we even mention our good buddy, Dr. Spoo! We also dig into what kinds of things can happen to the momma dog and the puppies during birth. Yes, we dig into all sorts of fun, plus we talk about the first 72 hours of a pup's life and how fragile they are. We talk again about early neurological stimulation and how impactful it can be for a dog, alongside proper socialization.If you have ever had questions or concerns about puppies or you ever thought maybe you'd consider raising a litter then this show is for you. You'll learn all the ins and outs and if you're interested in learning more, you should check out what Megan is doing with Torg's Labs.Want more Lone D?
