noemail@noemail.org (K9Cast)

We are deeply concerned as the situation on the Gulf Coast of the United States due to Hurricane Katrina continues to worsen. In this show we give a quick rundown of how dogs in that area are being affected, how people are helping dogs and how dogs are, in turn, helping people through this tragedy. Charities, like Noah's Wish, that are helping with disaster recovery, and charities for humans too, are very much in need of monetary donations. Please do whatever you can to help and also keep the affected people and animals in your thoughts and prayers.

More on Nintendogs/Nintendo's First Podcast

noemail@noemail.org (K9Cast)

We mentioned Nintendogs, a new virtual dog game, on show #18 and just today we received word from Nintendo of the premier of their very own podcast, which is news in and of itself! We're posting it here because their first podcast is all about Nintendogs! We are still working on a segment about Nintendogs for our show, but if you want to learn more about it then their show would be a great place to start.

Check it out by clicking the MP3 link at this site. Best quote from the show: Question: "As a parent do you think this is a good game choice?" Answer: "I think it is...we can't have a real dog." It will be very interesting to see whether people who perhaps shouldn't have a dog but would have gotten one otherwise will now use this as an alternative. If so that's a good thing!
