Many people view their dogs as more than just pets — they see them as family members. So when they bring them to the groomer, they want to be sure they're well cared for. And many dog owners are willing to pay a premium for that kind of certainty.Ricardo Azevedo is the CEO of Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming, America's largest premium pet brand. Since joining in 2022, Ricardo has led the company from 150 locations to more than 330, adding five to eight new stores every month.  Prior to Woof Gang, Azevedo held senior leadership roles at Restaurant Brands International, where he worked across iconic brands, including Tim Hortons and Burger King. Today, we talk to Ricardo about how his QSR experience translated to the pet space, what it takes to scale a franchise brand sustainably, and why the grooming industry is ripe for a dominant national player.Highlights:A decade at RBI (2:15)Inside Woof Gang (5:14)The white space in grooming (6:55)Footprint, growth, and real estate (9:48)Building the infrastructure (13:26)Restaurants vs. services (17:07)Selecting franchisees (18:38)Protecting brand standards (21:49)The pet industry today (23:49)Goals for ‘26 into ‘27 (27:38)Links:Ricardo Azevedo LinkedInWoof Gang LinkedInWoof Gang WebsiteICR LinkedInICR TwitterICR WebsiteFeedback:If you have questions about the show, or have a topic in mind you'd like discussed in future episodes, email our producer, joe@lowerstreet.co

"Cancer" isn't a word anybody wants to hear, either from their doctor or from their vet. For many of us, that word brings with it a host of worries, fears, and uncertainties. It can be hard to know where to look for answers, especially when it comes to our pets- general veterinarians often lack in depth knowledge of cancer, while veterinary oncologists are few and far between. Dr. Erin Malone, a board certified veterinary oncologist, is working to try to change that through her innovative new telehealth service, which aims to provide pet owners with information and guidance about cancer, wherever they are in the country. She joined the show today to talk about canine cancers, their treatments, and where the field of veterinary oncology is headed.   For show notes and more, please go to Your Family Dog.

Send us Fan MailA splenic mass shows up on ultrasound and the question hits like a brick: benign or malignant? We go straight at the uncomfortable truth behind canine splenic cytology. Even when splenic FNA feels like the “do something now” step, the match between cytology and histopathology is only moderate, and that has consequences for how we advise families, schedule rechecks, and decide when splenectomy is the safest path.We talk with Drs. Janet Grimes and Matthew Alusio about what their data means in the exam room: why a neoplastic cytology result tends to be more predictive than a non-neoplastic one, and why a benign aspirate does not rule out cancer. We unpack the spleen's built-in complexity, including extramedullary hematopoiesis, mixed cell populations, and the sampling problem of trying to summarize a large, heterogeneous lesion from a tiny needle sample. We also get specific about the diagnoses no one wants to miss, including hemangiosarcoma and lymphoma, and how tumor exfoliation and overlap with reactive processes can blur the picture.From there, we shift into action: when cytology is most useful, when serial ultrasound monitoring is a reasonable strategy for smaller, non-ruptured nodules, and when size and rupture risk should move the conversation toward surgery and definitive histopathology. We also dig into the “possibly neoplastic” gray zone and why calling your pathologist can be one of the most practical diagnostic tools you have.If you work up splenic masses in dogs and want clearer owner conversations, better monitoring plans, and fewer false reassurances, this one is for you.

Send us Fan MailDogs can detect explosives, narcotics, missing persons, and even disease. But what if their greatest superpower isn't finding things - it's sensing molecular changes inside the human body long before symptoms appear? Today we're exploring whether the canine nose may hold the key to the next generation of cancer diagnostics.Itamar Bitan is the Co-Founder of Dognosis  ( https://www.dognosis.tech/ ), a pioneering company working to unlock one of nature's most extraordinary sensing systems - the canine nose - and combine it with cutting-edge brain-computer interfaces and machine learning.Driven by a passion for both human health and working dogs, Itamar brings together an unusual blend of expertise spanning elite military operations, canine behavior, disease detection, and technology innovation. He spent nearly four years serving in Oketz, the Israeli Defense Forces' elite special operations K9 unit, where he worked as both a combat soldier and commander, developing deep expertise in canine training, scent detection, and high-pressure operational environments.Following his military service, Itamar became the first employee and Head of Operations at Dog-Prognose, a groundbreaking Israeli startup focused on disease-detection dogs, helping advance the use of canine scent detection for medical applications.Today, at Dognosis, Itamar and his team are pursuing an ambitious vision: digitizing canine scent perception itself. By combining the remarkable olfactory abilities of trained dogs with brain-computer interfaces, artificial intelligence, and machine learning, Dognosis aims to create a new generation of diagnostic tools capable of detecting diseases - including cancer - earlier, faster, and potentially more accurately than ever before.Itamar's work raises profound questions about the future of medicine, the untapped biological capabilities of animals, and how technology may help us translate nature's most sophisticated sensing systems into scalable healthcare solutions.#CancerDetection #ArtificialIntelligence #AI #BrainComputerInterface #BCI #CancerResearch #EarlyDetection #Dogs #MedicalInnovation #Biotechnology #FutureOfMedicine #HealthcareInnovation #MachineLearning #PrecisionMedicine #LiquidBiopsy #CanineDetection #CancerScreening #HealthTech #Diagnostics #SciencePodcast #STEM #Innovation #FutureTech #ProgressPotentialPossibilitiesSupport the show

When people talk about raw feeding, the conversation often begins - and ends - with pathogens.But what if that's causing us to overlook much bigger questions?In Part 2 of my conversation with veterinarian and canine nutrition researcher Dr. Anna Hielm-Björkman of the University of Helsinki's independent research group, DogRisk, we explore what researchers are beginning to discover now that raw-fed dogs are finally being studied more closely.We dive into one of the most controversial topics in canine nutrition: food safety and pathogen risk. But we also look beyond the headlines to examine how risk is assessed, what the evidence actually shows, and whether our focus on acute hazards sometimes prevents us from investigating potential long-term health outcomes.From there, we explore some of the most fascinating questions emerging from fresh feeding research:• What benefits are researchers seeing repeatedly in fresh-fed dogs?• Are the advantages of fresh feeding linked to rawness itself, or simply reduced processing?• How should we think about the relationship between dogs, wolves, and diet?• Do dogs actually need plants?• Why does nutrient form matter as much as nutrient quantity?• What happens metabolically when dogs consume fresh foods versus ultra-processed diets?• Why might healthy fresh-fed dogs display different bloodwork values than conventionally fed dogs?This is a thoughtful, nuanced conversation about evidence, curiosity, and the questions we may not have been asking.Whether you feed raw, gently cooked, kibble with fresh additions, or are simply curious about canine nutrition, this episode offers a fascinating look at what we're learning as research begins to catch up with practice.Connect with Dr Anna and the DogRisk team: https://www.helsinki.fi/en/researchgroups/dogrisk-health-via-nutrition-epidemiology-and-disease-detection-dogshttps://instagram.com/dogriskConnect with me!Website: https://mysticdogmama.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/mysticdogmamaI'd love to invite you to join my free Facebook community, The Nourished Pack.

Send us Fan MailRoutine stifle exploration during canine cranial cruciate ligament surgery sounds like common sense, until you ask the uncomfortable question: what if “doing more” doesn't reliably improve long-term function for most dogs? We sit down with Dr. Dan Low to unpack long-term outcomes after high tibial osteotomy procedures (TPLO and CCWO) performed without routine arthroscopy or arthrotomy and without proactive meniscal evaluation, a real-world approach many clinicians use but rarely see studied in depth.We break down what high tibial osteotomy actually changes in the cruciate-deficient stifle, then get practical about evidence. Dan explains why this large case series matters, how uncommon events become easier to estimate with bigger numbers, and why validated owner-reported tools like LOAD (Liverpool Osteoarthritis in Dogs) and the Canine Orthopedic Index give us a more standardized view of recovery than vague “good” or “excellent” labels. We also discuss one of the most debated points in veterinary orthopedics: late meniscectomy. When a meniscal sparing strategy produces a low late-intervention rate that looks similar to rates reported in explored joints, it raises a bigger issue about which meniscal lesions are truly clinically meaningful.We don't pretend one study settles the debate. You'll hear the strongest criticisms of this design, the patient groups where exploration still makes sense (uncertain diagnosis, revision cases), and the unanswered research questions that could reshape how we balance morbidity, time, and cost in dog knee surgery. If you treat CCL disease, refer cruciate cases, or counsel owners through surgical options, this conversation will sharpen how you explain risk-benefit decisions without defaulting to habit.Subscribe for more evidence-focused veterinary conversations, share this episode with a colleague, and leave a rating or review wherever you listen.JAVMA article: https://doi.org/10.2460/javma.25.11.0736INTERESTED IN SUBMITTING YOUR MANUSCRIPT TO JAVMA ®  OR AJVR ® ?JAVMA ® : https://avma.org/JAVMAAuthorsAJVR ® : https://avma.org/AJVRAuthorsFOLLOW US:JAVMA ® :Facebook: Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association - JAVMA | FacebookInstagram: JAVMA (@avma_javma) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: JAVMA (@AVMAJAVMA) / Twitter AJVR ® : Facebook: American Journal of Veterinary Research - AJVR | FacebookInstagram: AJVR (@ajvroa) • Instagram photos and videosTwitter: AJVR (@AJVROA) / TwitterJAVMA ®  and AJVR ®  LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/company/avma-journals

What happens when a police canine is given just two weeks to live? For Chris Bingham, Tambo's cancer diagnosis became more than a fight for survival. It became a story of loyalty, hope, healing, and reconciliation. In this episode of the Starter Girlz Podcast, Jennifer Loehding sits down with Chris Bingham, veteran law enforcement officer and handler to retired federal police K9 Tambo, for a powerful conversation about the bond between a handler and his canine partner. Tambo was once labeled difficult to bond with. But Chris saw something deeper in him—a reflection of his own story, his own wounds, and his own desire to be seen beyond the labels placed on him. After Tambo was diagnosed with aggressive terminal cancer and given about two weeks to live, Chris chose to fight for more time. What followed was a journey that inspired thousands, reached people facing cancer themselves, and unexpectedly helped Chris reconnect with his father before it was too late. This is a story about loyalty under pressure, the healing power of second chances, and the way one dog's fight became bigger than anyone could have imagined. ⭐ About Chris Bingham Chris Bingham is a veteran law enforcement officer, K9 handler, author, and advocate for retired police and military working dogs. His partnership with retired federal police K9 Tambo has become a powerful story of loyalty, resilience, and hope after Tambo was diagnosed with aggressive terminal cancer. Through Tambo's journey, Chris has inspired people across the country, including cancer patients and families facing their own difficult battles. He is also the author of the children's book Canine Tambo and is working on an adult memoir about his life, his K9 partners, and the reconciliation with his father.

Do you know you can learn a secret power from dogs that will change your life? It is called extending loving energy without expectation. On this week's episode of Love University, we explore how dogs offer a simple but profound lesson in elevated human connection. They give affection freely, stay emotionally present, and express warmth without constantly calculating what they will receive in return. You can benefit greatly when you apply this kind of unconditional loving energy in your relationships, work, and everyday interactions. Here are three ways to utilize the dog love secret in your own life: Show Genuine Interest in Other People Dogs pay close attention to humans. They follow them, observe them, and stay emotionally engaged. Human beings often do the opposite, becoming trapped in self-consciousness and constantly thinking about their own worries, appearance, or needs. One of the most attractive qualities you can develop is the ability to display sincere interest in others. Ask people about their goals, passions, struggles, and dreams. Listen carefully instead of waiting for your turn to speak. When you focus on others with curiosity and empathy, people feel seen and appreciated. That emotional connection naturally draws them closer to you. Bring More Enthusiasm Into Daily Life Dogs greet life with enthusiasm. They play, explore, run, jump, and approach ordinary moments with excitement. Adults often lose that spirit through routine, stress, and emotional heaviness. Enthusiasm changes your emotional presence. This week, aim to be more playful and laugh more freely. Enjoy spontaneous moments and approach life with greater openness and less rigidity. People will be drawn to you when you radiate energy, warmth, and humor. Do Nice Things Without Keeping Score Dogs show affection naturally. They comfort people, stay close during difficult moments, and offer companionship without worrying about what they will receive back. Your relationships become more loving and joyful when you give in a similar spirit. You can have a tremendous emotional impact on others when you offer a kind word, listen empathetically without judgement, and help someone through a hard time. When you give from your genuine goodwill rather than hidden expectations, you strengthen both yourself and those you help. This creates more rewarding relationships, greater emotional peace, and a deeper sense of fulfillment. Start today. Apply the loving energy of the dog and learn the secrets of authentic connection.  Love without expectation and your world will be transformed

On this episode of The Vet Blast Podcast presented by dvm360, our host Adam Christman, DVM, MBA, and his 3 guests Leilani Alvarez, DVM, DACVSMR, CVA, CCRT, Kara Amstutz, DVM, DACVSMR (Canine), CVA, CVPP, CCRT, and Jennifer A Repac, DVM, DACVSMR  discuss the importance of exercise therapy for dogs, emphasizing that it should be considered a therapeutic intervention from the start. 

What if one of the biggest problems in canine nutrition is that we've barely studied fresh food at all?In this deep and thought-provoking conversation, I sit down with veterinarian and researcher Dr. Anna Hielm-Björkman from the University of Helsinki's DogRisk research group - one of the only independent, university-connected teams in the world researching raw feeding and fresh food diets in dogs.But this episode isn't about telling you what you should feed your dog.It's about asking a much bigger question:How do we actually know what we know about canine nutrition?Together, we explore how pet food research is conducted, why so much of it focuses on ultra-processed diets, and what happens when fresh and raw food are finally brought into the scientific conversation.Dr Anna shares her own journey from conventional veterinary medicine into a more integrative approach to canine health — including acupuncture, nutrition, and preventative care — and why she became passionate about researching the relationship between food and chronic disease.We also dive into:why there is still surprisingly little independent long-term research on canine nutrition,how veterinary nutrition education is shaped,what “complete and balanced” actually means,why the form of a nutrient matters just as much as the nutrient itself,how processing changes the way a dog's body metabolizes and utilizes food,and why fresh-fed dogs may require entirely different frameworks for feeding guidelines, lab reference ranges, and health evaluation.This is a conversation about nuance, evidence, and curiosity beyond fear, marketing, and polarized internet debates.Whether you feed raw, gently cooked, wet food, kibble, or somewhere in between, this episode invites us to think more deeply about what health really looks like for our dogs - and how science can evolve when we begin asking better questions.And this is only part one.In the next episode, Anna and I will dive into one of the most controversial aspects of this conversation: pathogens, risk, food safety, and the myths surrounding raw feeding.If this episode resonated with you, please share it with a fellow dog guardian, leave a review, or tag us on Instagram @mysticdogmama with your biggest takeaway. These conversations matter because the future of canine health depends on the questions we're willing to ask.More about DogRisk:https://www.helsinki.fi/en/researchgroups/dogrisk-health-via-nutrition-epidemiology-and-disease-detection-dogsRegister for the DogRisk Seminar: https://www.helsinki.fi/en/researchgroups/health-via-nutrition-epidemiology-and-disease-detection-dogs/news-and-happenings/save-the-date-the-8th-dogrisk-seminar-2026Connect with me!Website: https://mysticdogmama.comInstagram: https://instagram.com/mysticdogmamaCome join my free Facebook group, First Light.

This episode is sponsored by Zoetis. Canine osteoarthritis is far more common, and far more underdiagnosed, than most veterinary professionals realize. In a recent episode of the Vet Blast Podcast presented by dvm360, Adam Christman, DVM, MBA, sat down with Mikayla Mayland, DVM, DACVS, to discuss the latest thinking on osteoarthritis in dogs and why early recognition matters more than ever.Throughout the episode, the duo challenges everything veterinary professionals thought they knew about canine osteoarthritis, from which dogs are actually at risk to what the real first step of OA management is.

One of the standout insights from this conversation is how, by incorporating simple Masterson techniques before chiropractic adjustments, Robin found she needed far fewer adjustments in her patients—highlighting the value of a more subtle, responsive approach.

In this episode, I sit down with Richard Lherisson to talk about his powerful journey from a chaotic, anger-filled childhood to becoming a behaviorist, entrepreneur, and founder of the Canine Training Academy. We go deep into how trauma, identity, and unforgiveness shaped his early life, and how a radical encounter with God completely shifted the direction of his future. Richard shares how understanding behavior—both animal and human—helped him process his own healing, build successful businesses, and ultimately step into his calling.  This conversation is about redemption, obedience, identity, and learning how God can turn even the most broken seasons into purpose-filled impact. __________________________________________________________ Ready for more?

Petra and Laurie from the Canine Connection Podcast stopped by — and we got into it. We're talking about what actually makes a good student, and surprise, it's mostly a mindset thing. Ego, passive showing-up, cognitive overload, integrating online learning without blowing up your group class relationship, and why your instructor's insecurity might be quietly in the room too. This one went everywhere. In the best way. Listen to the Canine Connection podcast wherever you get your podcasts and be sure to subscribe!
