AnimalZone: Less Stress, More Pets! - Season 13, Episode 09

This Saturday, April 5 at 8:30 AM on Cox Television’s national network, AnimalZone goes stress-free and tail-waggingly fun with Larissa Wohl, The Pet Rescue Expert, as she meets Ariela Robinson, founder of the inspiring nonprofit Reducing Animal Stress.

Joined by two lovable rescue pugs at Pups Without Borders and her equally passionate mom, Michele, Ariela shares how her family’s lifelong love of animals turned into a mission to make shelter life more comfortable for pets in need. What began with volunteering and fostering grew into a creative movement that helps shelter animals feel safe, happy, and ready for adoption!

Learn how simple items—many made from recycled materials—can work wonders for a pet's well-being. From DIY braided T-shirt pull toys for dogs and cats to easy enrichment toys for bunnies, Ariela shows us how anyone can lend a paw. Her lovingly assembled kits, donated to shelters and new pet parents, ease the transition to a forever home—while helping the planet at the same time.

Don’t miss this heartwarming episode that proves a little compassion, creativity, and care can go a long way toward reducing stress—for animals and humans!
