NEWisco Weekend, this week is going to the dogs…

Well, not just the dogs…all working animals. Our Cover Story features Ross from Christine Ann Domestic Abuse Services.

We have stories on Service animals and the law, legislation in Madison on emotional service animals. Radio for Pets is our musical guest. Amanda Nimmer has advice for you when you encounter a service animal in the wild. There are additional stories on Breast Cancer Awareness, White Cane Day and an Equal Rights Amendment in Wisconsin. Plus, of course, Pete Schwaba’s classic cinema pick of the week.
