Fun talk this week with first time dog dad Matt Fowler, guitarist for the band Arrows in Action. Matt introduces us to his 4.5 year old, goofy, stinky, cuddly, weird little Beagle mix Louise. We discover what animated character Louise was named after, how Louise rates as a watchdog, therapy dog and exercise partner and what he learned from his blind cat Squid that preceded Louise.

Arrows in Action has a new album I Think I’ve Been Here Before that hits platforms and shelves on September 19th. For music, tour dates, merch and more visit arrowsinaction.com

Matt gave his shout out to the good folks at Wags & Walks who are focused on advocating for wrongfully stereotyped bully breeds, medical dogs, and mamas + puppies that are often overlooked and at-risk due to shelter overcrowding. Their goal is to find every pup an adopter whose home, family, and lifestyle are a perfect fit for a lifetime of love and happiness. To adopt, foster, donate or volunteer visit wagsandwalks.org
