3.3 — Dog Detective Case Files: Luna, Rex and Clyde
Episode 3
Sunday, 12 October, 2025
Rescue dogs don’t come with a sign on their head listing all their most important information It’s often the rescuer’s job to figure it out — piecing together clues from stakeholders, vet records, and in-person evaluations to paint a picture of each dog’s past, present, and future.In Episode 3.3, hosts Jenny Nordin and Ashlyn Kauh dive into three remarkable cases: Luna, a returned cattle dog (adopted as a puppy) with “debilitating anxiety”; Rex, an owner-surrendered shepherd arriving beyond emaciated with no clear medical explanation; and Clyde (Claudette), an unexpected quasi-feral shelter intake.They also recap a whirlwind stretch of over 30 new intakes — complete with the usual chaos (hello, kennel cough — see Not Your 9 to 5) — and skip the “Shit List” this week in favor of celebrating collaboration. Partnered rescues helped save 15 more lives, and that’s worth spotlighting.This episode pulls back the curtain on detective work in rescue, highlights the power of partnership, and delivers the usual side of chaos, humor, and emotional endurance — all in a day’s work for a rescuer.POD MENTIONS:Diagnosing Kennel Cough in Dogs: A Comprehensive Guide [Kinship]Body Condition Score (BCS) Chart for Dogs [Association for Pet Obesity Prevention]The Honest KitchenCushing’s Disease in Dogs: Signs and Treatment [MedVet]Laboratory Tests Confirming Cushing's Syndrome [Veterinary Partner]PARNTER MENTIONS:Tail Lights Rescue ProjectSTART RescueK9 Kennel BossNirvana K9 TrainingCrossroads VetStanislaus Modesto Animal ServicesSaving Great AnimalsYakima Valley Pet Rescue (Valley Spay & Neuter)Furry FreightADOPTABLE DOG MENTIONS: MurrayAbigailLunaAsk us anything via Email to soyouwanttorunadogrescue@gmail.comFollow us on social media at @dgs.podcastDon't forget to Like, Share, Comment and Subscribe!Chapters00:00 3.3 — Dog Detective Case Files: Luna, Rex and Clyde03:36 Huge week for intakes07:53 A present for Ashlyn11:31 Our Genius Infomercial Idea13:06 Jenny FAIL16:10 Not Your 9 to 5: Kennel Cough19:52 Do your resident dogs catch it?21:58 Main Topic: We're basically dog detectives23:31 Luna adopted as a puppy returned as an adult with "debilitating anxiety"29:42 Rex, an unexpectedly emaciated owner surrender38:19 Clyde (Claudette) shelter intake surprise46:54 Anti Shit List Gold Star Rescue Collabs47:46 Saving Great Animals and 8 Yorkies51:44 Yakima Valley Pet Rescue 7 Puppies56:41 Finding more fosters, fail01:01:37 This number has been disconnected01:02:57 Outro01:03:18 Behind the Scenes
