Walking The Dog with Emily Dean6 Aug 2025

Dr Alex George

Today, we’re bringing you a very special episode of Walking The Dog! We’ve teamed up with Dr Alex George and his brilliant podcast Stompcast to take a special walk, thanks to ManyPets pet insurance.

We met Alex and his adorable dog Rolo on London’s Clapham Common. Ray didn’t join us on this one - we promise he wasn’t being lazy - but it was a hot day when we met Alex and because Raymond is elderly and his breed is particularly sensitive to heat, we decided to let him sit this one out.

Dr Alex is a presenter, bestselling author and podcaster. As a former A&E doctor - Alex has used his platform to become a leading advocate for making mental health support more accessible for everyone.

We chatted to Alex about how dogs can help connect you to people and how our pets can be a real support during tough times. We also spoke about the deep emotional bonds we can have with our pets and how it’s important to be there for them when they need us the most.
