In this episode we talk to Sindhoor Pangal who is the Founder of BHARCS and the PDTE country representative in India. Sindhoor is a canine behaviour consultant and canine myotherapist. She is passionate about ethological studies of free-ranging dogs in India. We were thrilled to learn all about the amazing street dogs of India, including the role they play in communities, their social structures, and what they can teach us about our own dogs at home.
*CORRECTION: "Dogs do not put evolutionary pressure on rats, they put survival pressure on them by competing for food." (Sindhoor Pangal)
