Leah Sheldon and Janine Sigley formed the non-profit Story Dogs organisation in 2009 in Murwillumbah, NSW. At the time both Leah and Janine had primary school aged children. After seeing a similar program operating in the USA on the internet they decided Australia needed such a program. They came up with Story Dogs, based on the successful American literacy program, Reading Education Assistance Dogs (R.E.A.D.), which was launched in 1999 in Utah, USA. R.E.A.D. was the first comprehensive literacy program built around the appealing idea of children and young adolescents reading to dogs. Leah and Janine are both dog lovers and also passionate about children reaching their full potential. Natalie Bubner is the coordinator for the Adelaide and the surrounding area. https://www.storydogs.org.au/ GUERRILLA PODCAST: FRESH EYES Website: www.podcast.kangaroofern.com Apple Podcasts: https://bit.ly/Podcasting_Apple Spotify: http://bit.ly/podcasting_spotify Google: http://bit.ly/Podcasting_Googlepod Sticher: http://bit.ly/Podcasting_Stitcher Please support us: www.patreon.com/kangaroofern

In today’s episode, I interview Lizzy Williamson. Lizzy fell pregnant really quickly after deciding to try and found out she was pregnant when holidaying in Paris. Lizzy enjoyed embracing her changing body after years of being body conscious as a dancer. She embraced yoga and really enjoyed her pregnancy.   Lizzy joined the birth center in Randwick and envisaged a water birth for her first birth experience. Lizzy was nearly 42 weeks when her labour started and she managed her contractions at home for most of the day. When her husband left the room to call the midwife, Lizzy suddenly felt the urge to push and she delivered her own baby completely unexpectedly onto some towels she had thrown under herself at the last minute. To hear more of Lizzy’s story tune into this weeks episode.   Topics covered: mastitis, accidental home birth, postnatal depression, exercise for mental health.   Looking for the perfect thoughtful gift?  Ordering gorgeous, fresh flowers has never been easier thanks to Melbourne’s most loved online florist, Flowers Across Melbourne.

A dog can be a wonderful addition to a family - a child can hold extremely deep feelings for for their dog that they’ll always remember. And with 4.8 million pet dogs in Australia, there's a lot of opportunities for that to happen. Yet many dogs are in fact anxious and don't like much human interaction, and many of us don't understand the basics of dog behaviour, putting us, in particular our kids, at risk of being bitten. Sally speaks with nationally accredited canine trainer, Anna Tasker. As a mother of two boys, Anna is keen to instill an awareness of social responsibility in the next generation of dog owners. Anna also shares her insights into dog behaviour so we can improve our relationship with this most loyal of human friends.After listening to this episode, you may have a better understanding of how the dog in this photo will be feeling.
