Majestic Transformation w/ Winnie Au

Majestic Transformation w/ Winnie Au

Author: As It Should Be Productions July 9, 2024 Duration: 18:31

Winnie Au is a photographer who has worked on many dog-related projects over the years. Her most notable project to date is Cone of Shame, with its name taken from the stigma connected to the cone-shape object dogs have to wear after medical procedures. Through her colorful and creative photos, Winnie has aimed to flip that concept around and show that this is actually a beautiful transition into a better life ahead for the dogs. What started as a small set of 12 photos turned into 60, all with different dogs and custom cones, which have now turned into a new book out this Fall.


Winnie knows from experience how a cone can lead to a better life because her own basset hound, Clementine, who had to wear one when initially being rescued from a puppy mill. Since adopting her around a decade ago, Winnie and her husband have seen Clementine’s initial PTSD, fear, and anxiety diminish greatly. Through taking care of her as a delicate rescue dog, they also realized recently that they were ready to have a child. Now, their home has entered a new stage with a senior dog and young toddler. 


Pre-order Winnie’s forthcoming ‘Cone of Shame’ book (out Sept 10), filled with her amazing dog photography series:

We often talk about saving dogs, but what happens when the roles are reversed? Dog Save The People explores that quiet, profound exchange. Hosted by Dr. Sharon Holland, an author and professor whose work examines the moral lines we draw between species, this podcast listens deeply to the stories that emerge from life with a dog. Each conversation reveals how the daily acts of feeding, walking, and caring for a canine companion can unexpectedly reshape our own routines, priorities, and emotional well-being. You’ll hear from a variety of people-families, kids, athletes, and those navigating mental health challenges-about the tangible ways a dog’s presence alters the rhythm of a home, encourages physical activity, and forges a unique kind of companionship. Produced by As It Should Be Productions, the series doesn’t offer training tips but instead considers the philosophical underpinnings of these relationships. It’s about the mutual rescue, the subtle fitness of heart and body that comes from having a responsibility to another creature. Tune in for a thoughtful, grounded discussion that goes beyond the simple joy of pet ownership to consider how these bonds fundamentally alter who we are, making the case that sometimes, the leash pulls both ways. This is a podcast for anyone who suspects their dog has done more for them than they could ever repay.
