In this episode of Small & Gutsy, Dr. Laura Scherck Wittcoff sits down with Keri Burgess, founder of The Farm Dog Rescue, and Nancy Zare, a dedicated volunteer foster parent, to discuss the critical work of dog rescue, rehabilitation, and responsible adoption in Martin County, Florida. The Farm Dog Rescue is a no-kill dog rescue organization that has made it a mission to rescue and adopt dogs, educate the community, and help animals in need. Beyond individual rescues, the organization is focused on addressing the larger issue of pet overpopulation through spay and neuter programs and policy advocacy. Throughout the conversation, Keri and Nancy share powerful stories of transformation—from chained and malnourished dogs finding forever homes, to the importance of careful vetting and placement, to the unique "Seniors Helping Seniors" program that pairs older dogs with older adopters. They discuss the realities of rescue work, the emotional rewards of fostering, and why focusing on the present rather than a dog's traumatic past is so important. Key topics include: Owner surrenders, and why 95% of Farm Dog Rescue's dogs come from families who can no longer care for them The critical role of foster families in rehabilitation and placement How legislation and spay/neuter policy are needed to reduce pet overpopulation, particularly in the southern states The importance of pet trusts for senior pet owners Nancy's journey from volunteer to experienced foster parent and the confidence it builds Why quality placement matters more than quantity of rescues The "Seniors Helping Seniors" program: pairing senior dogs with senior adopters How to focus on a dog's potential future rather than its traumatic past The systemic issue: "You cannot kill your way out of pet over-population" Guest Bios Keri Burgess – Founder, The Farm Dog Rescue Keri Burgess is a passionate animal advocate and rescuer with over 20 years of experience in animal welfare. As the founder and president of The Farm Dog Rescue, she has devoted her life to saving and rehabilitating dogs in need. Her journey in rescue began as a foster, and over the years, she has volunteered for numerous shelters and organizations, gaining invaluable experience.  In addition to her rescue work, Keri is a full-time realtor and owner of a real estate coaching company, where she helps professionals grow and succeed in their businesses. Her business acumen lends itself to both running The Farm Dog Rescue as a sustainable nonprofit and selling real estate—balancing compassion with strategy to ensure success in both fields. Nancy Zare – Volunteer Foster Parent, The Farm Dog Rescue Nancy Zare is known as the "LinkedIn Whisperer" and is the creator of the Likability Sales System. She is a renowned business consultant who shows professional business owners how to generate warm, organic leads on LinkedIn and turn them into clients. She has authored seven books, including an Amazon International Best Seller. As a volunteer foster parent for The Farm Dog Rescue, Nancy has fostered 38 dogs in just a few years.  Dr. Laura Scherck Wittcoff – Host, Small & Gutsy Dr. Laura is the host and founder of Small & Gutsy, a podcast and 501(c)(3) nonprofit dedicated to spotlighting smaller nonprofits and social enterprises under $10 million. Her mission is to raise visibility for these organizations and connect them with volunteers, donors, investors, and job seekers. Key Takeaways Owner Surrenders Are the Primary Need: The Farm Dog Rescue receives 10-15 owner surrender calls per day, with 95% of their dogs coming from families who can no longer care for them—not from shelters. Quality Over Quantity: Farm Dog Rescue prioritizes careful vetting, behavioral assessment, and thoughtful placement over rescuing the most dogs possible. Their average hold time is 12 days, with some dogs placed in as little as one hour and others taking up to a year. Fostering Is Transformational: Foster families like Nancy don't just help dogs—they help themselves. Fostering builds confidence, teaches new skills, and provides deep personal rewards. Policy Change Is Essential: The real solution to pet overpopulation is not no-kill shelters—it's spay/neuter legislation and responsible breeding policies, which have already reduced overpopulation in northern states. Pet Trusts Matter: Many seniors assume their family will care for their pets if something happens, but this often doesn't happen. Pet trusts ensure dogs go to appropriate rescues and forever homes. Seniors Helping Seniors Works: Pairing senior dogs with senior adopters creates perfect matches—older dogs need laps and love, and older people want exactly that. Focus on the Present: Dogs live in the moment. While their past trauma matters for understanding behavior, the focus should be on creating a joyful, safe present and future. Rescue Is a Business: Even nonprofits must operate like businesses with financial stability, clear processes, and strategic planning to be sustainable and effective. It Takes a Village: The Farm Dog Rescue has 52 volunteers in different roles—from fostering to transport to admin. Sustainability comes from distributed leadership and a strong team. Who Rescues Whom? The relationship between rescuer and rescued is mutual. Dogs provide us with purpose, presence, and unconditional love in ways that transform our own lives.

Nominations are open for the 2025 Farm Dog of the Year contest. Chad Smith has more on the award that comes with cash prizes and bragging rights. Smith: The American Farm Bureau Federation's seventh annual Farm Dog of the Year contest, co-sponsored by Nestlé Purina PetCare, celebrates farm dogs and the many ways they support farmers and ranchers. AFBF Vice President of Communications Terri Moore talks about what makes the Farm Dog of the Year contest so important. Moore: It's really that it provides a window into the world of agriculture through a shared love of pets. People who may know nothing about agriculture feel this instant connection through something they love. And let's face it, we've had some pretty amazing farm dogs. This is our seventh year now, and you can go to fb.org and look at those first six videos and I dare you not to cry. Smith: Moore says the contest celebrates the many roles dogs play on farms and ranches across the country. Moore: The best candidates are dogs that are truly useful on the farm, whether that's as a watchdog, a herder, or a helper to its master. We've had some pretty dramatic stories of dogs saving the lives of people and other animals, but it doesn't have to be that dramatic either. And it's more than just being a good work dog. It's a dog that has a special place in the family's heart. It's both a companion and a worker. Smith: Moore says the nomination process is simple. Moore: Any Farm Bureau member can nominate their dog, and if you know another farmer who has a great dog, please encourage them to enter the dog. If you're not a member yet and have a pet you want to enter, that's easy as well. You could join us right at fb.org, and that nomination form is really simple. We're so fortunate to have Purina as a sponsor, and they provide $5,000 in prize money to the winner, plus a year's worth of pet food, and then our People's Choice pup winner will get $2,500. Smith: For more information or to nominate your dog, go to fb.org/farmdog. Chad Smith, Washington.

For a stockdog, what is “real work” on a farm or ranch, and how is it different than a competitive trial? Is real work necessary for developing a well-rounded stockdog? What does "well-rounded" even mean, and for that matter, is it really all that important? Rancher, trainer, and trialer, Haley Hunewill is here to tell us. Welcome to Farm Dog.

You know that old joke about how to make a small fortune in farming or ranching? Start with a large fortune. Well, how do you become an old, highly experienced professional stockdog trainer? Start when you're young, of course. But more than that, recognize the value you have to offer, have the guts to charge what you're worth, and keep learning. Welcome to Farm Dog.

Have you ever wondered why tee ball and little league and slow pitch softball exist in a world where there's Major League Baseball? Of course you haven't. We all know those low-level sports are valuable for players even though they're not the best of the best, and everybody has to start somewhere. So why would we dismiss dogs and handlers who play in the herding minor leagues? Welcome to Farm Dog.
