Remote Space

Have you noticed an ever-increasing cacophony of barks and meows in your neighborhood since the pandemic began? Well you're certainly not alone. Since the pandemic brought the majority of America's workforce inside their homes, people who previously were apprehensive about getting a pet only to leave it home alone for 8-10 hours a day figured that now is the perfect time to get that furry friend they've always wanted.  On this episode of Remote Space, host Doug Thomas sits down with Corey Childs and Kerri Tenniswood, two members of PAWS, an animal shelter based in Lynwood Washington, to talk about the pandemic pet adoption surge. Resources:PAWS https://www.paws.org/ PAWS on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/paws_wa/ Kerri Tenniswood's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kerritenniswood/ Corey Childs' LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/corey-childs/ Doug Thomas' LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/douglas-k-thomas/ Discover and follow other Microsoft podcasts at microsoft.com/podcasts
