Today, we're delving into the remarkable relationship between Janet, an internal communication and sustainability expert, and her perceptive border terrier, Millie, aka Mills.

This captivating story begins with Mills “choosing” Janet by laying on her chest, and unfolds into a tale of astounding canine intuition and human growth. From Mills' sixth sense for detecting stress to her ability to adapt her behaviour to Janet's energy, you'll discover how this intelligent pup has not only been a constant companion but also a catalyst for positive change in Janet's life and work.

As we explore the nuances of non-verbal communication between humans and dogs, you'll gain valuable insights into the power of connection in our fast-paced world. Don't miss this episode that reminds us of the immeasurable value our furry friends bring to our lives, and how just five minutes of reconnection with Mills at the end of the day can make all the difference.

This is a Pawdcast with a difference! Some time ago John Sills posted an utterly brilliant on Linkedin, as he often does - this time he posed a question:

Would you want a robotic dog, instead of a real one? Easier to look after, no mess, no need to train. Will stop barking when you want it to, won't get ill, won't get lazy. If you've got allergies, problem solved! It's got to be better, right?

Of course, John was highlighting (amongst other things) the possibilities and limitations of tech in our world and the need for humans to have a bond with another ‘being’ and so I invited him onto the Pawdcast, so that we could debate his thoughts on this topic.

In this episode of the Pawdcast, we're exploring the fascinating intersection of AI and canine companionship with John, a customer experience expert who doesn't currently have his own dog, but has explored their emotional intelligence and connection with us humans that will be hard to ever replicate.

As we delve into the question of whether an AI dog could ever replace our furry friends, we'll uncover surprising insights about human nature, our innate connection to living beings, and why sometimes, life's imperfections are what make it truly perfect.
