Introducing your pets to a newborn
Tuesday, 3 March, 2026

As our breakfast show co-host Sharnelle Vella gets ready to go on maternity leave you may have heard her special baby shower broadcast this morning. One listener had some great advice which was how she introduces her two dogs Bruce and Barry to the new member of the family. In this edition of the Conversation Hour we speak with a pet behaviourist on how to make that transition as smooth as possible.Also in this edition, why women are less likely to receive bystander defibrillation than men and the campaign to change that, how trauma-informed education is being used in classrooms for children with complex needs, plus the art of the memoir and 'spilling the tea.'
