From Ireland with Love, Jewel the Silver Poodle
In Episode 3 of The Story of My Pet Podcast I welcome my guest Suzana Ioana. Originally from Romania, Suzana now resides in Dublin, Ireland with her precious poodle Jewel. Growing up with family dogs including cocker spaniel and poodles, Suzana has always loved the companionship that pets provide. When she met Jewel, it was “love at first sight” and he has by her side for the last 9 years. Suzana works as a civil engineer and runs her own life coaching business. You can follow her and Jewel on their Instagram accounts @suzana.lecoach and @jewel_the_happy_poodle.
