Amanda Fortino has done everything from dressing up as a cow in Washington DC to hand out soy hot chocolate at President Obama’s inauguration to stripping down to her to her underwear to protest fur. In fact, when it comes to fighting animal injustices, it seems there isn’t much she isn’t willing to do. Fortino is a campaign coordinator for the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals and joins us today to talk about an important new initiative to protect our furry friends from the summer heat. Plus, Steve learned the difference between dog and cat food and Emily tells of a sparrow hawk with a nest outside her house that has been grabbing hair chunks from a neighbor’s dog’s mane. And the Petcasters continue to ponder the prospects of their Great American Road Trip. Site: ThePetcast.ComEmail: [email protected]: 702-997-3300Twitter: @ThePetcast
