Bewilderbeasts tells the stories of animals at the intersection of humanity, like:
Goats were evicted from a national park for drinking human pee.
A parrot named Poll was kicked out of President Andrew Jackson's funeral. 
Racism in the 1800s still influences modern-day events by way of a Border collie in 2020 inheriting 5 million dollars
International tensions nearing a crisis point when Sweden assumed fish farts were Russian U-boats in the harbour
And more.
It's appropriate for children but also for the parents who have to listen to kids' podcasts because Melissa is a parent who has to listen to kid's podcasts and was determined to make something for both demographics.

Melissa is a professional dog trainer and author outside of Boston, Massachusetts who is a self-professed dog-nerd. She has been professionally training dogs since 2005 and is the co-training director of the New England Dog Training Club, the oldest AKC obedience club in the United States. She has had the distinct pleasure to talk nerdy about dogs to patrons of the Museum of Science in Boston, elementary schools around Massachusetts, and to the kids watching PBS's Design Squad.
 
When not getting peed on in puppy classes, Melissa is frequently asked to talk about a variety of topics, including why breed-specific legislation is a terrible idea,  how not to get swindled on sites like Petfinder and Adopt-a-Pet, what rescue groups can do to help new owners succeed with their newly adopted dog, how to use canine sports to help with some commonly reported dog behaviour problems, what to consider before getting a new dog, and more. 
 
Here are a few places where Melissa has been an invited speaker or guest:

Her work has been featured in Maine Dog Magazine and Bark Magazine. 
 
Melissa is a faculty advisor for Victoria Stilwell's Dog Training Academy, a senior instructor at MSPCA, and a trainer at Every dog Training Center in Danvers, MA. She published her first book, Considerations for the City Dog, in 2015 and is finishing up a book geared to dog trainers about all the things "they" don't tell people who want to work with animals when they grow up. There are a lot of stories about urine and other bodily functions in that book. Much like this podcast.
