This was an interview episode of "All My Children Wear Fur Coats" with host Peggy Hoyt and guest Jackie Ducci, an animal advocate, philanthropist, and equestrian. Jackie shared her lifelong connection with animals, particularly horses which she started riding at age seven, and how animals taught her self-worth beyond traditional measures during challenging childhood experiences. She discussed her documentary film "Unspoken Bond" which premiered in March and explores how animals support healing and well-being, with plans for future screenings and a podcast series launching in September. Jackie also explained her nonprofit Human Animal Alliance, which operates as a private foundation granting funds to other organizations that prioritize the human-animal bond, including recent support for PAWS for People's prison program. The conversation covered Jackie's current animal family consisting of two bulldogs and two horses, and how horses serve as teachers while dogs function as best friends, with both providing different but equally valuable roles in her life.
