    Love that this pod cast is a relaxed conversation with suggestions, or you might try this, rather than you have to do it this way approach. Seeing that each dog is an individual should be considered just as any other family member.

  • Great family-friendly training information

    Getting new information from Colleen and Julie's podcast is something I look forward to weekly! They offer great tips and tools for setting families and their dogs up for success and teach that training can be fun and friendly, while also being highly effective. They also explore important topics surrounding how important our dogs are to us, and how they help us find our humanity. Their episode on losing a pet was incredibly emotional but so important to talk about. I love tuning in each week to... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

YFD 275: Eight-Legged Freaks with Shamekia Wray
Q: What makes tarantulas different from true spiders, and how does that affect care?
Tarantulas are terrestrial, fossorial, and often arboreal, and they don't use webbing to catch prey like true spiders; their webs act more as indicators and shelters. This difference informs how you set up their enclosure and how you interact with them, emphasizing respect for their space and low maintenance needs.
YFD 273: Beam Me Up, Scotty!: Cold Laser Therapy with Nancy Clark
Q: What brought you to Georgia from California, and how did your career evolve there?
Nancy details moving to Georgia for her husband's job, transitioning through roles and licensing processes, and ultimately establishing a private laser therapy practice after years of veterinary experience and a shift from clinic-based work to independent services.
YFD 273: Beam Me Up, Scotty!: Cold Laser Therapy with Nancy Clark
Q: So what made you decide to become a vet tech?
Nancy describes a long, winding 40-year path into veterinary medicine, explaining how working in kennels led to a licensing and educational journey, and how mentorship and work ethic propelled her toward becoming a licensed veterinary technician and eventually starting her own laser therapy practice.
YFD 269: Pup O'Clock with Brian Manni
Q: How do you see the product evolving in the future and expanding beyond the monthly box?
He outlines plans for an animated series, video games, board games, and a broader movement that uses real shelter dogs and character-based storytelling to promote humane dog ownership.
YFD 269: Pup O'Clock with Brian Manni
Q: Right. So do you want to talk a little bit about how you decided to start Pup O'Clock?
Brian explains the motivation to help kids engage with their dogs through a monthly themed box that educates and enriches, while supporting shelters and encouraging responsible ownership.
