Speaker 2: Welcome to Animal Rights on pet Life Radio. I'm your host,
Tim Link and We've got a great, great show today,
and so thank you for joining us. My guest today
is the founder of four Legged Life online pet community.
She's an award winning author, editor, speaker of pet Expert,
and of course a brilliant host on Oh behave here
on pet Life Radio. One of my favorite people of
all time, Arden Wore, is going to be joining us.
And Arden's going to be talking to us today about
one of her many books, the most recent Dog Parties,
Dog Parties, How the Party with your Pup? How to
Party with your Pup. So it's gonna be fun. And
I know Arden knows how to party, and so does
alve her puppies, so we're well talk to her a
little bit about that. And obviously the book is loaded
with helpful tips to make your own pot tea the
best in the neighborhood. So Artno will be joined us
in a moment, but I want to share with you
a little tidbit here. I always try to get some
interesting news things that I think is fascinating, and so
today I'd like to talk to you about an exciting
initiative that's available for students at Lee's mcray College now.
Starting in the spring of twenty eleven semester, Lee's McRae
College will join the ranks of other pet friendly colleges
and universities by allowing students to bring their pets to
live with them at the school now. Lee's McRae College
is located in North Carolina in Banner Elk, North Carolina,
beautiful part of the country up in the northern parts,
and it's one of the few universities that is allowing
people to have students to have pets in their dormitories
and at the school. It's a growing trend, but we
applaud them for doing this now. Barry Buxton, the president
of the Prespity College at Lee's McRae College, was recently
quoted as saying, we love our pets, and we recognize
that students who are pet owners are generally response and
carrying individuals. We want to encourage pet adoption and awareness
that all of God's creatures are sacred. So boy, I
couldn't have said that better myself. Some big kudos to
President Barry Buxton of Lees McCrae College in North Carolina.
So to find out more information about the college and
their pet policy, please go to my blog, the Animal
Rights Blog on pet Life Radio learn more about it,
and additionally, we will have the link to the actual
article on the blog as well. So good to Animal
Rights Blog on pet Life Radio. Big kudos to Lee's
McCrae College for allowing pets to be part of the
student's experience there. So love it, just love it. So everybody,
hang tight. We're going to go to a brief commercial break,

Speaker 9: Let's Talk Pets on Petlife Radio dot com.
Speaker 2: Welcome back to Animal Rights on pet Life Radio. Thanks
for joining me, and I'd like to welcome very special
guests Arden Moore to the show. Arden, Welcome to Animal
Rights on pet Life Radio.
Speaker 5: Hey pause up, tim os up.
Speaker 2: It's always great to talk to you. You've always got
wonderful things happening, in the latest being this dog party
program that you put together in the book as well,
So tell us a little bit about dog parties how
to party with your pup.
Speaker 5: Well, first of all, I think that university. I think
they're going to be graduating a lot of PhDs there.
That's pretty happy dogs. What do you think, Ah, Well,
years and years and years ago, I was quite a
serious journalist. In fact, I was an investigative reporter for
a major daily and I was busting all the bad
people that were taking our money and not spending them
right and just not being good people. And I'm happy
for the past decade or so to be able to
focus on people on pets, and so I wrote Dog Parties,
How to Party with Your Pup. And the reason I
did that, Tim was because just like us, I believe
that our dogs learn when they're in a fun setting.
And you can sneak in a lot of good doggie
manners when you're at a dog party. Trust me, when
there's a big treat on the line, you know those
dogs are going to be sitting and parking it a
lot quicker than if it's just you and your dog
and you're going say it, say it, say it, They're
not going to do it. So that's one of the
secrets behind dog Parties the book is that I wanted
to be able to improve our relationship with our dogs
and do it in a fun but edutaining way.
Speaker 2: Edutaining always full of edguitating advice. So give us some
of those tips that are in there. Is it goes
wonderful tips on how to have your own dog Potti.
Speaker 5: Well, the book is it's broken down into several sections
and we cover everything from the planning to the cleanup.
And one thing I think is if I could be
like an Ann Lander's of the pet world. Sometimes we
have these awkward situations and we address them in the book.
For example, let's say your bff, you just really really
wants to go to this dog party, has a dog
who loves anything that has two legs, but isn't really
big with other doggies. So you're in that awkward position.
What do I do? I want to unwrite my friend,
but her dog is snarky to other dogs, So what
do I do?
Speaker 2: So?
Speaker 5: I suggest this invite your friend, make a big whoop
and say to her that you know, Brutus Bowser or
whatever the dog's name is. You're going to make sure
that when she leaves that her dog is going to
score a major goodie bag that she can bring back
to her dog, and that you thank her for being
the able body party animal assistant. So you do that
right off the back, because sometimes we have to realize,
just like people, there are some dogs that just get
along with other people but not real jazz about being
in a setting with other dogs. So you've got to
know your doggie. And people guessed. The second tip I
guess I could give people is this is a party
unlike others, you don't have to worry about really what
your wardrobe is, because there's going to be drool on it, guaranteed,
and the dogs are going to teach us a very
important lesson. We have to live in the moment. There's
no time to be wondering if you could have, would have,
should have done something. You don't have time to text.
At a dog party. The dogs take center stage. And
for me, I think we are so multitasking these days.
It is just wonderful to be able to live in
the moment with a bunch of party animals. So those
are a couple of things, but I know we can
talk more, but I'm going to let you ask the questions.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's right. No, I think those great great tips,
and you know, and I think it goes far beyond.
And when we think of a dog party, you know,
people maybe have thought about that other thing about birthday
parties for your dog, but it's a lot more. There's
there's all kinds of reasons to have parties with your dogs.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, one of my favorites is why not? I mean, seriously,
do you have to have a reason? But I do
run down a list of types of themes if you will,
for your dog. A perfect one is the adoption anniversary party.
I have a dog named Kleo, my little surfing dog.
She's a rescue. I adopted her off the streets on
June twenty seventh, four years ago. So I always have
an adoption anniversary party for Kleo. There's a play on words.
It's true. There are bark mitzvuzz out there. I said that,
right they You know, a dog finally gets a riven
in agility, why don't you have a party with all
his or her agility pals. Halloween a big one, big one.
Lots of people like to dress up their dogs. If
your dog wants to be a clothes hound, okay, if
your dog doesn't, don't push it. Saint Patrick's Day, Valentine's Day,
I mean puppy school graduation. There's a whole long list.
And another one is a feast of Saint Francis of Assissis.
You know they do the pet blessings all over the
country and after that ceremony, you know, get the little
halo on your dog, have a party.
Speaker 2: That's right, Another grey excuse to him. You know, I
had a friend recently she adopted her dog. They had
a dog adoption anniversaries or a birthday party, but she
put a nice unique spin on it, and the fact
that people didn't necessarily have to bring gifts for her dog.
She wanted to bring them to bring donations or food
items or things of this sort that she could donate
to one of the local rescues.
Speaker 5: So that's a very good thing. We do that a lot.
I give dog big and small, national stages and just
in my backyard, and it is a nice opportunity for
people to paw it forward, if you will, and to
give to a good cause. Some of our dogs, they
probably have more goodies than most of us have. We
tend to spoil on my guests. I love that idea.
It's a great idea, and it's a way of giving back.
Speaker 2: Absolutely yeah. I know. In my past life, I traveled
constantly and the only way I could get the big
black monster back in the door, which is i e.
My suitcase, is to have a little toy or something
stuffed inside of it. Now, needless to say, I've got
about five hundred stuffed toys laying around my house, no
kidding about the numbers, and only a select few get
played with. So we're gonna wash those up and donate
those toys. But yeah, you're right, giving back is the
way to go too.
Speaker 5: Well, one tip for you if so, you don't have
your house innudated with stuffed slobberd toys. I have a
toy box for Chipper and Khleio. What I do is
I rotate them and bring out two or three every week,
and they're like, oh my gosh, there's the gorilla. I
didn't know where it was and I love it. I
miss it, and I put the others away. So you
just rotate the toys and the stuffed animals and you
actually save on money, and they think it's pretty cool
because it's like a happy reunion.
Speaker 2: That's right, reunited with the stuff gorilla. Yeah. Now, how
many of these dog parties have you either hosted for
your own dogs or other people help them coordinate them?
Speaker 5: I would say I'm getting close to one hundred. I've
actually flown to New York City from San Diego with
my dog Chipper to appear on CNN to tell people
how to party like a pup. I've helped Martha Stewart
plan a dog party her people. It's an indirect connection.
Her people contacted me for my dog party book and
it gave them some guidance. It was for her beloved
chow chow named Paw Paw and one of my favorite
ones I had. It was a rough assignment. I was
on a national book tour and I had to go
to Kawhi. What a bar tough and there's a wonderful
Humane Society there. She does a lot of great things
for pets on that island. And she invited me to
be the presenter for their annual Love a Dog Day
and we hosted a dog party for five hundred dogs
at her event. Oh my, oh my gosh. That was
great and the money raised goes back to the Humane
Society to help out pets and all. But I got
to tell you, those Hawaiian dogs they know how to party.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, No better place in the world a party
than that.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So, And just Sunday, I was in del Mar, California,
to be a presenter at the San Diego Pet Expo
and I was on stage giving a dog party to
the attendees and I had friends bring their dogs. I
had a little Chiwalamix named Bear, a Karen Terrier named Jack,
a very famous surfing dog named Ricochet, a Golden Retriever,
and a black sweet lab named Marcy to be my guest,
and we did a few of the party games and
we had the audience rooting for each of the four dogs.
Speaker 2: Amazing. So who would a thunk years ago going from
an investigative reporter extraordinaire to now being dog Patti afficionado
to the stars.
Speaker 5: It's not a bad transition. I'd say, I think I
paid my dues. You know, I like to have fun,
but I am very serious when it comes to wanting
people to get the best out of their dogs and
for the dogs to get the best out of their people.
And in the book, one of the ideas we give
is sometimes our dogs like to pull on a leash,
and if you put them in a competitive situation. We
have a relay race where the goal is you have
to hold a pla stick cup of water that's filled
to the brim in the same hand you're holding your
dog's leash, and it's a relay race, and you have
to go back and forth in a quick stride, and
there's a big bucket of water that you get your
water from, and then you have to go to your
own individual bucket and at the end of the relay,
we judge to see which of the individual participants bucket
has the most water. Now, the nice thing about this
is sometimes the dogs at yank all of a sudden
realize there's some prizes up for grabs, and it never fails.
The worst yanker when there's not a game setting tends
to be the most focused in the game.
Speaker 2: Very interesting. So who would have thought that, you know,
because you typically would think, well, they're going to yank anyway,
especially if they're around all this excitement, all these other dogs.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so I have no reason for the logic, But
that has been my humble informal survey. I have found
the dogs that I've found. But when we do have
our dog on a leash and all that, the worst
thing we can do is to yank back because we've
just given them permission to yank. So what I do
is I just tell everybody to get in the park
position or turn around look at something that seems the
most marvelous piece of grass blade they've ever seen, and
the dog will come back to the leash, becomes has
slack in it then and then you go, Okay, you
can use halties, you can use gentle leaders, but the
purpose of a walk. I believe is that it's not
only to give the dog a chance to sniff and
see and check out everything, but it's an opportunity for
you and your dog to be able to bond and
have a good time. So you need to be really
enticing and anything but boring. So if you take your
dog on a walk, very the route, walk backwards, skip hum,
you know, do a lot of different things, keep your
dog guessing, and it'll make the walk much more pleasurable
for both you and your dog.
Speaker 2: That's right, it's great advice. You know, it's important to
you get that physical stimulation in their system, you know,
get that extra size in a bit more importantly, possibly
is the mental stimulation as well. Mix it up a
little bit, right, good stuff. We're talking to Arden Moore

Speaker 11: Radio pet light Radio dot com.
Speaker 2: All right, welcome back to animal rights on pet life Radio.
We're here with Arden Moore, Dog Potty Expert Extraordinary, and
I want to talk to you a little bit more
about the book Dog Parties. Had a Party with your pet,
But I also want to talk about the wonderful online community.
You have a four legged life, so I want to
talk to you about that as well. But one quick
question I had about the parties themselves. You know, as
you mentioned, it's more than just getting together for a
social event and having the dogs chow down on a
bunch of tasty treats. But it's also there for a
lot of other reasons as well.
Speaker 5: Right, I like to put the pee for play with
a purpose, just like when we were younger and we
were in school, and some of the folks going to
school now now your favorite teacher was the one who
made the learning fun. So in a dog party, you
can get your dog to really hone in and polish
the basic cues like sit, stay, wait, leave it. One
of the games we play is called Snoopy Says, and
it's just a modification of the Simon Says game we
played as kids. Snoopy says, walk your dog in a
counterclockwise fashion. Stop anybody who stops, They're out, Snoopy says.
Have your dog in a sit. Snoopy says, have your
dog sit up and hold it for five seconds. There's
a whole different litany of things you can do in
the Snoopy Says game that are basically giving the dog
a chance to show off and reinforce some of the
basic cues that they should learn how to do before
I forget. I gotta remember I'm not Oprah, so I
can't give you guys all free trips to Australia. But Tim,
if you're all right, I'd love to give away a
couple autograph copies of my book. And what we could
do is we could we'll put the link on your
your newsletter and my Arden more nos pets E newsletter
if your game.
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, that'd be great.
Speaker 5: I think we should do the the first person. Let's
say this, how about the tenth person to email you
Tim with your e newsletter and to email me with
my ard and more nos pets E newsletter. I think
this they have to put the code word party Forever.
F you are E V E R.
Speaker 2: Got it party forever, right, So newsletters will be coming out.
We'll have ard and give when her newsletter comes out
later fourth March fifteenth, four legged life dot Com. And
if you haven't sign up for the newsletter, do it
quickly because it's always full of great tidbits, ideas finding
out what Arden is up to. You find out where
the next party is, maybe you can join the next party.
And of course then I'll send something out on my website.
We'll post it here on Animal Rights on pet Life
Radio as well, so people will know that. But the
code word tenth person to email in at they get
the newsletter Party Forever, we'll get a copy of the
signed copy of the book Dog Parties How to Party
with Your Pup. So I think it's great. Thanks for
the offer. That'd be great for our listeners problem.
Speaker 5: And speaking of four Legged Life, I did create that
as an online pet community on April Fool's Day of
twenty ten, and the motto is to laugh, love and learn,
and I hope people can dash over there. We have
a lot of good videos, audio clips. My goal with
that site is the spotlight people doing great things in
the pet community, like you, Tim and others, and so
there's blogs, there's a whole bunch of things. So I
hope people will sniff out the site.
Speaker 2: Absolutely. It's great side full of just all kinds of
interesting tidbits. It's four Legged life dot com. And of
course there's always little stories and articles and things about
your four furry family members.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, Chipper, Cleo, Murphy, enzi Key. Yeah, I got
all my twitters with me. Okay, that's my wrap, that's
my pet rap.
Speaker 2: We won't hold against it, don't worry.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Chipper and Cleo are my two rescue dogs. Chipper
is a Golden Retriever Husky mix and I have dubbed
her America's party animal because she has been with me
since the book came out, and she loves the potty.
And Cleo is my twelve pound mystery mutt who likes
to surf. She's pretty cool at it. She hangs twenty.
And then I have two very amazing cats, Murphy and Zeke,
both rescues, and they're very cool with all the dogs
that come to our house. They're not real jazz. I
don't think I'm going to be writing cat parties how
to party with your cat, but a little different. But
they they're bitter into the party of one or two.
They're not really into the big party scene. If you
know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, you know how much grief you're going
to get, you know much grief you're going to give
with if you don't write that book.
Speaker 5: Well, if people show me a demand for a cat party,
I will do it.
Speaker 2: There you go. Yeah, so email Artmore at four leggedlife
dot com and demand your party like a cat book.
Speaker 5: Right, I'd be happy to do that. I mean, you
know it is dog parties, I think. In addition for
us as pet parents, I'm actually speaking at Pet Sitters
International in New Orleans next week and I'm giving a
presentation to the attendees on dog parties, which sounds silly
but not when you think of dog parties are a
great opportunity for anybody in the pet business world to
be able to cultivate a good relationship in the community
and bond with people and have good giveaways and network
with other pet related businesses. So part of my talk
will be able to show the pet sitters how they
can get themselves a little bit more visibility in their community.
I guess a leg up on their pet care competition,
if you will.
Speaker 2: Good, very good idea, because yeah, that's it, and that
industry is becoming very very competitive, which we're glad for. Works.
We need great pet sitters out there for those of
us that can't travel with their pet set often. So yeah,
give them some insight on how to do the business
thing a little bit better by having some fun with
it as well, right, and I.
Speaker 5: Will let the cat out of the bag. June twenty fourth,
I have created a national holiday and it'll be the
first time it's celebrated, so.
Speaker 2: You're now the hallmark to the stars.
Speaker 5: Yes, oh good. I am creating National Dog Party Day,
National Dog Party Day, and we are going to have
a dog party in San Diego and New York City
and our goal is to eventually go across the country.
And pet Sitters International and pet Life Radio and Canine
Kkeriy there's some of my party posse and we're going
to be able to We've staged it on June twenty
fourth because that is also take your Dog to Work Day,
which is done by Pet Sitters International, and we figured
let them work hard and then they're going to party
at night. So work hard, play hard, and so the
whole day and night will be a celebration with our dogs.
Speaker 2: Fantastic, fantastic. Well, thanks for announcing that we've got the
scoop here on. You got the sitechool like it, and
it's not the poop scoop either.
Speaker 5: No, so you bring your bags. I don't know how
many of you folks have like washed your pants or
jeans and have those extra spare doggie bags. I'll put
my paw up. I've done that. That's when you know
you're really a pet parent when you have a whole
big supply of those roll up tape things to take
care of excess pet fur on your clothing, and that
you wash your pants because they have extra spare doggie
bags inside.
Speaker 2: Yeah, kudos for those that do that. Actually, yeah, it's
better than the alternative right now. I saw you recently
featured on a TV show, The Tells for the Pet
Lover's Heart. Tell us a little bit about that experience.
I thought that the video clip that saw especially was
just fantastic.
Speaker 5: They did a great job. Tails for the Pet Lover's
Heart is it is like a Hallmark show if you will.
It airs once a year. I believe Parena and Kroger
sponsor it. There's a great production team led by Jim
Friedman called Blind Squirrels Production. I think that's a great name.
What they do is they go all over the country
looking for people, five or six people each show that
make a difference in the pet community. The show airs
typically in November and December on different markets all over
the country, and this year I was honored to be
one of them. There was a great group. There's a
father and son who used their private airplane to do rescues.
There's a very talented photographer in Nashville who helped create
a shelter there. I mean the whole show itself. I
was bow wowed by everybody. But people can go to
the four Legged life dot com site under the about
ardent page right the very first link in the upper
right hand corner. They can click on it and boom,
they'll get to see the segment featuring me.
Speaker 2: There you go and please take a look at that.
I thought it was just well put together. Obviously, it
highlights all the wonderful things you do and why you
do them, and of course your beautiful family as well,
your four legged free.
Speaker 5: Family I'm so glad they filmed it after I lost
twenty pounds because I looked much better on camera, because
you know, they say they add weight, so I would
have been like a watermelon.
Speaker 2: A guess that's why they do it before the holidays,
I think, is what it is after that? Not so
good for all of us, I believe. Now tell us
about O Behave. I'll give you a plug there obviously,
O Behave a wonderful, fantastic radio show and pet Life Radio.
Who do you have coming up? And what you got
going on there?
Speaker 9: Oh?
Speaker 5: Behave? Mark Winter is the executive producer of Pet Life Radio.
He's an awesome person and he conned me into doing
a radio show a couple of years ago, and it's
been a great ride. We've had everybody from Betty White
and Jennifer Aniston to Lily Tomlin and Dean Koons. Most
recently we have had Allison Sweeney is our latest guest.
She is the host on the Biggest Loser and she
also plays on Days of Our Lives and she's a
really big advocate of pets. She has a one eyed
Boston Terrier by the name of Winky, who was a
little bit overweight can you imagine being the host of
the Biggest Loser and having a chowhound?
Speaker 2: I think she's pushing for another television show, Yeah, yeah,
version or something.
Speaker 5: Yeah. So we were happy to find out that the
show Oll Behave is now we can say, the number
one pet podcast on the planet based on voting by
the International Podcast Awards. We made the final round and
no other pet show made that. And as a network,
which you're part of, Tim with your show, pet Life
Radio is the most listened to pet podcast network in
the entire globe. So kudos to Mark Winter. He has
assembled quite a good group of hosts and people seem
to like it. You know, it's like TVO for the ears.
You can listen when you want it, and if you
miss an episode, you can just go on pet Life
Radio dot com and boom there it is.
Speaker 2: Yeah, boom there it is. You can download and listen
to it and take it with you, share it with
your friends and family and who behave. It's a fantastic show.
And the thing I think I like most about it
is not only are you talking to usually you know,
fantastic celebrities and people that we know from the entertainment industry,
but it's the insight they have on their own pets
and their love for animals that really brings a different
viewpoint and flavor that we don't always get exposed to, right.
Speaker 5: And I like sometimes having as guests ordinary people doing
extraordinary things. And one of my all time favorite guests
was a twelve year old girl by the name of
Monica Plumb who is raising money to get oxygen masks
made for pets, dogs, and cats in fire departments all
over the country. She started with her own in her
own town in West Virginia, and she now has raised
enough money for more than three hundred and fifty fire
stations all over the country.
Speaker 2: Wow, fantastic.
Speaker 5: I was just really tickled to have her on the
show because here is an example of that you can
do something, you can make a difference.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and getting started at a young age that's even
better because then she has a whole lifetime ahead of
her to help the animals out and do other great
things in her life.
Speaker 5: Absolutely. So I wanted to just I know we haven't
talked a lot about the games, but I just wanted
to if I may run down a few of the
games to what the appetite of your listeners who are
going to be gunning for those autograph copies of dog Parties.
There you go, what do you think?
Speaker 2: Go?
Speaker 5: Yes, all right, we got Snoopy says, we got the
sloppiest kisser contest. We have the best popcorn catcher. We
have be a clothes hound. We have canine musical chairs,
we have canine willpower. They're all in the book. We
have some really healthy recipes you could make. We show
people how to make great invitations. And I wanted to
give a shout out. The book has these very funny
illustrations done by the very talented Buck Jones, and he's
done a lot of illustrations in pet magazines. He's just
he's a great guy to work with.
Speaker 2: Fantastic, So everybody pick up a copy of the book
Dog Parties, How to Party with your pup, Have your
own party, host a party for any reason whatsoever, teach
your pets why you're there, teach the dogs while you're there,
and maybe even team up with a local rescue and
have an event where the people come to the party
and have a great time and donate back. So all
those are fantastic and Arden does all that and more
so we appreciate you coming on board.
