Breeders Brew: The Dog Breeding Podcast
The Breeder’s Brew Podcast is for dog breeders who want to make informed, ethical decisions without feeling overwhelmed.
Hosted by Sara and Isobel, the Passionate Puppy Practitioners, this honest and supportive podcast unpacks the realities of dog breeding with clarity, compassion and practical know-how. Whether you’re breeding your first litter or looking to improve your current practices, each episode helps you navigate the journey with more confidence and less confusion.
Sara Lamont, the world’s first Canine Family Planner™, is a leading authority on home breeding. She brings decades of experience and a straight-talking, values-driven approach to helping breeders prepare, plan and parent each litter with care.
Isobel Barker, the Canine Nutrition Coach©, is the only breeding-focused nutritionist in the world. She offers holistic feeding and wellness advice by simplifying the science to empower breeders to raise strong, thriving pups through nutrition that makes sense.
Together, they bust myths, share heartfelt stories and answer the questions you didn’t know you had, all in a relaxed, relatable way that makes even complex topics feel manageable.
