Chasing Golden Shadows

Chasing Golden Shadows

Birdie the Border Collie gets anxious when her owner watches sports on television. Banner the Golden Retriever constantly chases light and shadows. Dr. Gary discusses whether it could be a form of epilepsy or an obsession-compulsive behavior. A woman wants to know more about getting a hedgehog as a pet. Diego the wire-haired dachshund has lost his spunk since returning from Kenya. His owner asks whether pet jet lag exists and about strategies to help Diego adjust to his new home. After that, it’s “Bird Note: Birds in Music.”
