In a band full of dog guys, this week's guest Chris Guglielmo of Bayside says he's the most obsessive of his bandmates when it comes to hanging with studio and venue dogs. Chris joins the show to tell us all about Enzo, a 3 year old Irish Wolfhound look-a-like who doesn't have an ounce of the breed in his DNA (he's a Pit, GSD, Belgian Malonois, Rottweiler mix) and his 12 year old terrier mix Maisie (aka Mu-Tang). We also pay our respects to his Cairn terrier Marty which led us to a helpful discussion around end of life care. Great talk with a good-hearted dog dad.
