    Episode notes · Positive tone

    Read excerpt

    The London contingent is looking a little weary, while the Scottish contingent is feeling the cold. After the customary weather chat, Lez and Ross move on to the evolution of the domestic dog, ethology, behaviourism and genetics.Their conversation raises more questions than can possibly be answered in a single episode, so watch this space for a dedicated genetics episode in Season 8 or 9. They also discuss the emergence of the “mini Cane Corso” and consider the relationship between selective bre

    Episode notes · Neutral tone

    Read excerpt

    A political start and a dive into the terrifying world of AI… which is far outside this duo’s remit! Thankfully, the Londoner quickly calls a halt to that to change the vibe. The request is unicorns and rainbows… and then somehow it turns to tortoise sex?! . Obviously, the weather is discussed. Scotland is tropical… jeez! . A serious conversation about the dangers of water, rivers and seas follows. Dogs enjoy the water, but the Gundogs & Guard Dogs Duo are now a little more cautious! . A chat ab
