Welcome to The Bark, a Tennessee podcast powered by Laws Saving Paws, where we confront the animal welfare crisis at its roots. In this kickoff episode, we dive into the real issues behind animal overpopulation—from backyard breeders and loose dog laws to overwhelmed

shelters funded by tax payers.

Unlike feel-good animal rescue shows, The Bark is for people who want change that lasts.

Through education, grassroots advocacy, and bold legislative reform, we’re working to fix the

system—not just patch it.

If you're a dog-loving guy or gal, a responsible pet owner, or just someone who cares about what’s happening around you, this podcast brings you the truth about how the crisis impacts all Tennesseans—and what we can do about it.

It’s time for tough conversations and real solutions. The leash is off—let’s dig in.
