Series 3 – Episode 1

In Episode 1 of Series 3, Host Gyton Grantley meets ‘Joe’ the Sulphur Crested Cockatoo and his owner who rescued him, Kim Sowcroft.  After losing his previous ‘mum’ and living with her son, Joe went into a state of despair and needed to be re-homed due to his outbursts and inability to settle into his new life. A passionate bird owner and foster carer, Kim was the only person that Joe seemed to warm to, and as they say, the rest is history.   Kim has some really useful advice for anyone considering getting a pet bird, particularly a cockatoo and other bird species that can live up to 80 years of age.

Dr Melissa Meehan shares some tips on cruciate ligament injuries, which are one of the most common orthopedic problems that Vets’ see in their canine patients.

Host and dog trainer, Lara Shannon, heads up north to the organic vegetable farm to meet the growers at Lockyer Valley Organics, to hear about the benefits of searching out dog food that contains organic and locally sourced vegetable content, plus she shares some useful training tips to help you with your pooch.  Plus, we check out some pet-friendly places to stay with your dog including Beachfront Zilzie, Capricorn Coast in Queensland and TyntTynder Bright in Victoria.

We also launch our Smart Pets weekly segment and meet Axle, the world famous Fidget Spinning Dog!
