Animal law, dog law, ox, rat, weevil...law? This week, Melanie takes a DEEP dive on animal law and Megan pulls her up for air.

Each host chose a kickstarter to explore and bring to the episode today. While it may seem like there should be tons of different tech to scroll through, we found slim pickings on real items that pets and pet parents would actually enjoy.

Sometimes we really talk about dogs, and sometimes we talk about literally anything else.

"Let me see that toooooth, Baby when your mouth goes bu duh duh ." If you couldn't tell from that first sentence, we watched Snow Dogs from 2002. For some reason, The Thong song Sisqo is in this.

We watched the 2016 documentary "Pet Fooled", and boy do we have opinions. There's good info, bad info, and "why is this in here/Barbara, let your husband eat his own carrots," It's a little outdated, but an interesting topic we think needs to be revisited.

2018 was a scary time to be a pet owner. Information was pouring in; telling us that what we were feeding our pets might be killing them. DCM suddenly wasn't only hereditary and it could happen to dogs eating a grain-free diet. Our government issued warnings, scientists posted studies, but then, it all just disappeared. The problem wasn't solved, pet parents didn't have answers, and we are left wo...

We shouldn't have to say this, but WE ARE NOT TRAINED PROFESSIONALS. We are just dog moms doing our very best to provide for our furry kids. That said, we do know how to use a search engine and read articles! Megan welcomed 2 littermates into her pack, so we decided to do some research and find out if you can prevent littermate syndrome and is it even real? Email us at whatthefluffpod@gmail.com ....

One of the most unpredictable and anxiety inducing interaction your dog can have is when they meet another dog. Whether that dog is your dog, a friend's, or a strange dog coming up to you, you never can quite predict how it will go. Megan and Melanie discuss strategies, personal experiences, and when you just hope to get lucky. We also expose the truth about Toni. We are sorry we kept it a secret...

We can all blame Amazon for this one. Let's celebrate toxic relationships, actively avoid healthy ones, and call senior citizens slutty. Not convinced yet?
