Megan Blake

When animal advocate and Pet Lifestyle Coach Megan Blake walks into a room, heads turn, and it isnt just her energy or expertise that motivates this response, it's often her escort, giant mutt Super Smiley.

Whether its Super Smiley, her beloved rescue turned spokesdog who smiles alongside her to promote pet adoption, Tout Suite the Travel Kitty, the discarded feral who has traveled over 130,000 miles with Megan educating pet owners on traveling with their furry family, or one of the many horses shes saved from slaughter, theres no denying that Megan is succeeding in her mission to help people integrate pets into their lives and to show these pets as teachers and healers.

Together with her cherished spokes animals, she is opening hearts, minds, and inspiring tangible change in the relationship between humans and pets.

That relationship is the centerpiece of everything she does. Shes the resident Pet Expert on the Emmy-Award winning PBS series Animal Attractions TV that she also hosted, segment produced and wrote and which was celebrated at the Humane Society of the United States prestigious Genesis Awards. Clips from the show can be seen on her sizzle reel at www.PetLifestyleCoach.com.

Mixed into these clips, is her current appearance on Oprahs Network, OWN, as the Pet Lifestyle Coach to Ryan ONeal on his reality series, The ONeals. Megan brings Ryan two Best Friends dogs to choose from and helps him integrate Mozart into his home. The episode is important for the dog adoption movement, because it illustrates how an adopted dog can come into a tension-filled environment, and into that darkness, bring light, calm the situation, bring people together and (as Megan says) increase our happy chemicals.

The episode titled He Said, She Said is re-airing on OWN. Check local listings for re-air times. Megans column appears in the critically acclaimed and Genesis Awards recognized Dogs Life Magazine, and includes subjects close to Megans heart like Earth Friendly Grooming, Indoor Fun for Fido, Safe Travel, Grieving the Loss of a Pet, and Dog Proofing Your Home.
