People might think they know what the 5 stages of grief are and where they are on the list, but did you know that the model The 5 Stages of Grief created by Elisabeth Kubler-Ross in 1969 was actually created through interviews with terminally ill people?

You don't have to have listened to Episode 33 What is Grief? - Episode 1 in this Series on Grief to listen to this episode, but there are some great definitions of grief and stories shared.

In this episode, The Stages are discussed and defined, but there are also more stories shared and practical information about what someone might be experiencing during an illness, and after a death, of a pet.

We created a Summer Series of episodes with young adults and how dogs have had an impact on their lives.

The world is in good hands with The Young Ones we interview, starting with Delaney.

Delaney shares with us her love for rescue, the challenge of accepting a new adoption after the death of her childhood dog, and the fulfillment of having a dog in her life.

We talk to Kait Springsdorf of M22 Glen Arbor and Crystal River Outfitters Recreational District in downtown Glen Arbor, Michigan, the heart of the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.

Kait shares with us how important being dog friendly, and actually being pet friendly, is to customer service, and the customer experience, within The District.

We talk about how having your dog in their stores, and even on their wine patio and in their kayaks on the Crystal River, improves the lives of everyone - the dogs, the customers, and the staff.

We also talk about what you need to know to bring your dog on one of their kayaking adventures.
