On the radio....

January 13.  Well our first BIG snow storm today.  The good news?  My human's university is CLOSED - at least for the morning so she gets to stay home with us!!! In the snow!  Yippee!

Today is Public Radio Broadcasting Day.  As I understand it, Public Radio is not-for-profit – so it doesn’t sell advertising time.  That would include NPR in the US, CBC in Canada and the BBC in the UK. When I did a little searching – I found all kinds of short news stories about dogs on-line via public radio.  Here are some NPR stories:

Here are the best animal stories for 2015 from BBC radio:

Here’s a story on BBC about Dogs that Saved the World’ s Smallest Penguins:

And a segment on CBC about old dogs featured in a new book:

With even a bit MORE searching I found several internet radio shows – all about dogs and pets!!!   Who knew?!

 Still no PRN (PON Radio Network) though.  Frodo is working on that one.  He likes to talk – all

the time.  He would be an excellent broadcaster.  And he doesn’t need an amplification system.  He’s plenty LOUD enough.

So that should give you plenty to listen to today!  Celebrate radio – even if you listen to it on the internet!!! We will.  After we come in from the snow!
