This episode is the first in a series all about how dog ownership can look and feel different based on where you live and what your lifestyle is like! This episode is with Nicole from @villagedogsen! Nicole is a designer and illustrator living in New York City. She currently lives in Astoria, Queens with her husband, Nick, dog, Sen, rabbits, Pickle and Elliot, plus 20+ other pets. Sen is a 4 year old village dog rescue from Baku Azerbaijan who found her way to NYC in 2019 and has been a new-york-city-dog ever since. Sen and Nicole like to spend their time trick training, playing in local parks, and escaping to explore outside of the city when they get the chance.I am now offering free connection sessions to hold space for others and share from lived experience as a human with anxiety, depression and a sometimes difficult dog.
