We start with a little background on the Missouri 500 dogs and why they are so important.
Our interview is with Michelle Serocki, the founder of the Brew City Bully Club (“BCBC”), who is changing minds and saving lives in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Michelle and I talk about:
How a Craigslist ad led to the start of Brew City Bully Club;
Michelle’s experience working with the Missouri 500 dogs rescued from the largest dogfighting bust in the U.S.;
BCBC’s work in advocacy and owner support; and
BCBC’s unique and creative events.

Mindy’s Story: The Majik Touch
Mindy FitzGerald was born into an animal-loving family but the first dog that was truly hers, was Majik. Her constant companion during a very transitional time of her life, Mindy is still mourning Majik’s passing. In this episode, Mindy & I discuss:
The role Mindy’s pets have played in supporting her through a life-altering illness
How a crime scene led to Mindy’s love of pit bulls
How a foster cat’s asthma led to the creation of Mindy’s business, Hunter & Harvest Apothecary
My own dogs have supported me through medical issues and research even shows that dogs are good for our mental and physical health.

Welcome to the Believe in Dog podcast. My name is Erin Scott and in this first episode I’m sharing with you:
how I went from reluctant dog owner to Dog Mom AF,
the difference dogs have made in my life and some of the hard times that my dogs have gotten me through, and
why I started this podcast
My mission is to connect dog lovers by sharing stories that celebrate how the love of a dog is inspiring people to change their lives, the lives of others and changing our world for the better. This is also a place where you can know you aren’t alone in the difficult times, like dealing with your dog’s illness or when you are facing grief and loss.
Find out more about the organization B-More Dog (www.bmoredog.org) that I volunteer with. Find out more about Bad Rap, the rock stars of pit bull advocacy and community dog owner support (www.badrap.org).
I am an advocate for pit bulls, shelter dogs, rescue & adoption, humane education in schools and dog owner support programs.

Not Your Average Dog Mom Friend
I believe a dog can be a healer, a teacher and an inspiration. Topics can range from cutting edge veterinary research, to the grief of missing a dog that was an important part of our lives to the impact of poverty on pet ownership.
Join us as we explore all the ways that the love of our dogs can touch our lives.
