About the Guest:

Mindy Dutka is a dog documentary photographer, advocate, and storyteller whose business, Dogs I Meet, is built on the belief that every dog has a tale worth telling. With a lifelong love for dogs, she has traveled the globe providing brands and animal welfare organizations with story-driven content that gives voice to the voiceless. Her work spans documenting the human-animal bond at Veterinary Emergency Group, photographing pet familites during the COVID pandemic, and, most recently, embedding with a volunteer spay-neuter team in Suriname to capture the stories of the veterinarians, vet techs, and local families who showed up for their dogs.
