They set the company up 12 years ago after temporarily fostering a job and missing the interaction on a daily basis.Networking has been vital for both Lauren and Richard so they talk about the meetings that Richard went to before he joined Business Buzz a year ago where he met Lauren for the first time.

Howdy doody Bookshelvers!We're thrilled to bring you another one of our awesome DOGX 2025 speakers today… drumroll please… It's Roz Pooley! We had a ball chatting with Roz and got into a LOT! From sharing her journey from a retail background to becoming a prominent figure in dog training and behaviour, her experiences in dog walking, the evolution of training methods, and the importance of understanding dog behaviour and social dynamics. We also discuss the significance of continuous learning and adapting to the changing landscape of dog training, while also getting Roz's perspective on the unique roles that different dogs play within their social groups. We also couldn't chat with Roz without discussing the overwhelming influence of social media on guardians and the pressure of perfection in dog training and the unrealistic expectations placed on trainers and their dogs. We wax lyrical about a world where a more realistic and empathetic approach to dog training that embraces imperfection and prioritizes the well-being of both dogs AND  their owners might exist. We touch on the impact of seasonal changes on dog behaviour and share a spoiler of what Roz will be talking about at DOGX! All this and our usual waffle for your earbud pleasure!

Ever wondered who's really in charge during a walk—the owner or the dog? Today, we dive into this age-old question, exploring the subtle power dynamics between humans and their four-legged companions. Are we leading them, or are they leading us?But that's not the only power struggle we're unpacking. We'll also take a controversial look at ancient history and ask: Who were the real slaves—were the Jews truly the ones in bondage, or was there another side to the story? We'll sift through some historical evidence and perspectives to challenge the narratives we think we know.Join us for an episode full of thought-provoking questions, unexpected twists, and a fresh look at who's really in control—whether on a leash or in history books.

They also explore interesting facts about land ownership in Nevada and share their controversial food opinions, all while providing a light-hearted and entertaining commentary on everyday life.Linkshttps://www.lowtreestudios.comhttps://www.youtube.com/@jasonandmindypodcasthttps://rumble.com/c/c-6686850Visit our Store: https://www.teepublic.com/stores/lowtreestudiosDetails:SURGE IN DOG WALKING INJURIES _ A recent study by Johns Hopkins University revealed a staggering 342 percent increase in injuries related to dog walking among American adults and children from 2001 to 2020. Fractures, sprains, and head trauma were the most common injuries reported. Women accounted for 75 percent of visits, and adults aged 40 to 64 made up 45 percent of the total.… To avoid injuries during dog walking sessions, researchers suggest you should avoid multitasking and be sure you're using a leash or body harness that's appropriate for your dog's size.TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT? TRY THE SARDINE FAST _ If you're like many adults, you might be wishing you could lose a few pounds. And maybe you're one to try new diets, just in case one takes hold and really works. If so, have you tried the sardine fast?… The sardine fast involves consuming only sardines for a set period, typically 72 hours, with the aim of boosting ketones and reducing blood glucose levels. This fast is popular among those following ketogenic diets, as sardines are rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, protein, and essential nutrients. Participants have reported various health benefits, including increased energy levels, improved concentration, and reduced inflammation.WHAT HAPPENS TO THE WEDDING RINGAfter the marriage ended, what did you do with the wedding ring?What the internet said:• After my ex flew the coop, I tied my wedding ring to a helium balloon and let it loose in the wild blue yonder. It was a symbolic gesture… I must have had my head in the clouds to get married in the first place.• I put mine around the dog's collar and attached the rabies tags to it. It looked better on the dog!• I'm holding onto mine until the next time I have a cavity. Then I'm going to have the dentist melt it down and use it as the filling, so when my ex- does something that drives me nuts I can grind down on it like THISSS.• I threw mine into the river — since I knew it was already polluted.• As for my two used wedding rings from previous marriages, I own a body piercing shop and used them there. I also advertise a free piercing if you bring in an old ring.

For those that don't know, I volunteer at a local animal shelter near my house and spend time walking the dogs there. While this non-profit does tremendous work in the community, it doesn't always operate very effectively as a business. That reminds me very much of the challenges that we see as advisors and there are some real insights that can carry over to what we have to deal with. Today we want to share insights from his recent experiences at a local dog shelter and how they relate to the challenges faced by financial advisors. Let's discuss the importance of effective volunteer recruitment, the parallels between running a non-profit and a financial advisory practice, and the necessity of constant marketing and client qualification.   Here's some of what we discuss in this episode: The importance of effective recruitment and finding the right people. Marketing strategies to help you attract clients. Why you don't want to treat every prospect the same.   Schedule a meeting with Dan: http://bookachatwithdan.com    Read more and get additional financial resources here: http://renegadeadvisor.net

I am Savanna Owner and Founder of The Savvy Sitter, Pet Sitting and Dog Walking, LLC. I have grown up with animals all my life and enjoy spending time with them. I have lived in the Winter Garden and Windermere Area for over 30 Years. Though I do not have any animals myself, I love taking care of them and giving them the cuddles, playtime, and treats they deserve. I am an active equestrian, big dogs and horses do not frighten me. When I am not taking care of your Fur Friends, you can find me reading, practicing archery, riding, and figuring out ways to provide additional and great services to our clients!” Doug Keeling “I'm Doug the Dog Guy, and I'm the owner and founder of Bad to the Bone Pet Care. I began pet sitting and dog walking in the Fall of 2013 because I missed my childhood best friend, a Jack Russell named Skip, and because I wanted to combine my passions for animal welfare and entrepreneurship. Bad to the Bone Pet Care was born in 2014, and we have since had the privilege of working with thousands of pets across Northeast and Central Florida. We have won multiple awards for our premium-level professional pet sitting and dog walking, including Pet Sitter of the Year 2023, Best Jacksonville Dog Walking Company 2018-2022, and Best Pet Sitting Service in Northeast Florida 2016 & 2017. I tell everyone I meet, “this is a dream come true for a dream I didn't know I had.” Amber Van Denzen Suarez “Amber is the founder of Atta Boy! Animal Care. She has been working in the animal field for over 16 years. She started in the field by working in the horse industry – stable hand and pet sitter. She then trained as a local Veterinary Kennel hand, Veterinary Assistant and then an Emergency Veterinary Technician for both small and large animals for over 13 years. She has a bachelors of Animal Science from University of Florida.” Heidi Lewis-Pracko “Throughout my childhood, the running joke was always, “Where's Heidi? She's probably with the dogs.” In 4th grade, my family adopted our Welsh Corgi, Angel - the light of my life all the way into college. When she passed away, I was devastated. Luckily for me, 4 months later, we brought another Corgi into the family. I named her Hope, because she was doing exactly that, bringing hope to our family. Thus...Heidi & Hope Pet Services! My true passion came when I began pet sitting on the weekends. Pet sitting showed me the rewards of getting to work with animals one-on-one. I LOVE being the only one to care for people's pets and being relied upon to do so. I finally made the full-time move to Naples in 2016, where I feel lucky every day getting to live in the place that I vacationed all the time growing up. I immediately got into pet sitting upon my move and the rest is history!” Links: Donate to the Association https://www.facebook.com/FLPetServices https://www.instagram.com/flpetassociation/ FLPETSA@gmail.com FlPetAssociation.Org Buy PSC Merch Give us a call!

One of the best things about being an adult is you get to make all the decisions for yourself, like eating ice cream for dinner, staying up late to watch a scary movie and finally getting a puppy. But each of these decisions comes with responsibilities and consequences; the biggest of which is becoming a puppy parent. They're cute and fluffy, loving and loyal, but they require your time, energy, attention and money.  Matt and Molly are joined by certified professional dog trainer and dog behavior consultant Irith Bloom. Figure out just how much of your time, money, and home you should set aside for your new furry best friend.
