In this episode of the Canine Culture Podcast, host Brittany sits down with Arthur Von Wiesenberger, creator and host of the nationally aired TV series AnimalZone. Arthur shares the inspiring story behind the show’s mission—to flip the narrative on animal rescue by focusing on uplifting, positive stories of shelters, sanctuaries, and the people making a difference for animals everywhere.
From building “paws-up” shelters designed with the animals’ comfort in mind, to visiting unique sanctuaries across the U.S. (and even Hawaii!), Arthur’s adventures highlight the creativity, compassion, and community spirit driving animal welfare forward. He offers practical ways anyone can help—from volunteering and fostering to donating locally—and reminds us why education and kindness are vital for improving animals’ lives.
Whether you’re an animal lover, rescue volunteer, or simply in need of an inspiring story, this episode will leave you hopeful about the future for animals in need.
