Ep264 - Domesticating a dingo pup: Samantha Walsh of Man’s Best Friend

In this episode, Panos sits down once again with Samantha Walsh from Man’s Best Friend to discuss a unique case — a rescued dingo pup and the long, delicate process of helping him adapt to suburban life in Sydney. After reaching out to Sam for advice and guidance, Panos shares his client’s story and the challenges of domesticating a dingo in a busy urban environment. Together, they unpack the key elements of this journey — from husbandry, slow socialization, and body language, to feeding routines, management, environmental conditioning, and even what happens to dingos during a full moon. They also dive into the importance of trust, routine, and patience when raising a dingo pup, plus tips to give these incredible animals the best chance at a stable, fulfilled life alongside humans. This is Sam’s second time on the show — be sure to check out Episode 234 for more of her invaluable insights into dingo behaviour and rehabilitation. A huge thanks to Sam for her continued help and expertise, and for sharing her knowledge to support others working with these remarkable animals.
