About The Network

Welcome to Tracie Hotchner Pets! This network features a medley of “delightfully entertaining and informative” pet talk podcasts covering numerous species of animals and topics ranging from behavior to nutrition, along with philosophical issues about sharing the planet with animals. Tracie Hotchner produces and hosts all the shows, headlined by her flagship show, the Gracie award-winning DOG TALK® (and Kitties, Too!) where she has been interviewing authors and experts from around the world for over 16 years with over 1,000 consecutive hour-long shows on NPR over the air, then podcast here and on all the streaming platforms. Her show Cat Chat® became a podcast here after nearly 8 years on Sirius as her own live call-in show on the Martha Stewart Channel. Her most recent show is EXOTIC PETS™, co-hosted by world-renowned veterinary specialist and author Dr. Doug Mader, is here on the network along with the archives of five other previous pet talk shows she produced and co-hosted with experts.
