In this deeply affecting Reloaded Episode, Lez and Ross revisit their conversation with Julie Shelton from Appledown Dog Rescue.

Originally recorded in August 2024 and titled “Take a Breath,” it’s an episode that truly asks you to pause before listening.

The reality of dog rescue in the UK, both then and now, is nothing short of devastating, and the emotional toll is clear throughout the conversation.

Julie speaks with a honesty and compassion that stays with you long after the episode ends.

She, and the many people like her working quietly and tirelessly in rescue centres across the country, are the reason so many dogs are still here today.

Their courage, their resilience, and their refusal to give up on the animals in front of them is nothing less than extraordinary.

This episode is a reminder of the heartbreak, the hope, and the humanity behind every dog that finds safety.
