In this episode of Petworking, host Peter Kenseth sits down with Dr. Christina "Chrissy" Fernandez to discuss a remarkable milestone: Chewy's Connect with a Vet service has reached one million telehealth consultations since launching in October 2020.Dr. Chrissy shares insights about the program's evolution, from its pandemic origins to becoming an essential resource for pet parents nationwide. Peter recounts his own experiences using televet services with his dog Peony - from emergency situations like when she ate a screw or chicken wings, to simpler matters like finding alternatives to the cone of shame.The episode explores how televet services bridge critical gaps in the veterinary care landscape, particularly for those in rural "veterinary deserts" or when emergencies happen outside regular office hours. Beyond helping pet parents, the conversation reveals how televet services offer veterinary professionals an alternative career path that can help combat burnout and keep talented practitioners in the field. With veterinary shortages projected to reach 31,000 by 2030, these services represent an innovative solution to accessibility challenges while complementing traditional in-person care.Watch the full episode to learn more about the future of veterinary telehealth and how services like Connect with a Vet are expanding access to veterinary care.

If you're a pet parent, you've doubtlessly had at least one stressful experience bringing your pet to the vet. However, we can all agree that regular vet visits are critical to maintaining your pet's health. So, what's the solution?One of the biggest themes I observed at WVC2025 was the reimagining of veterinary clinics and care models to create spaces that more comfortable for both pets and their parents. This transformation extends beyond architecture and interior design. Did you know KONG is now helping transform the veterinary experience? I had a chance to talk to Dr. Danielle Graziano, Head Veterinarian at KONG, about how they've launched new clinic kits designed by veterinarians to support fear-free handling and cooperative care.This is an ingenious adaptation of the brand's trusted pet products to turn the exam room into a more positive experience, providing vets with practical tools to reduce patient stress.In this interview, we explore:- How their spinning lick mats and specialized toys create positive distractions during exams and procedures- Solutions for both cats and dogs that respect their emotional wellbeing- How these tools integrate into clinics without requiring complete renovationsAs pet parents, we all know the anxiety our furry friends can experience at the vet. My dog, Peony, loves her Fear-Free certified vet but still gets nervous in exam rooms. KONG's approach addresses this common challenge with practical solutions.I'm excited to see more and more companies and clinics give thoughtful consideration to animals' emotional wellbeing. Kudos to Dr. Graziano and KONG!

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   Lisa See, whose latest novel is “Lady Tan's Circle of Women,” now out in trade paperback, is interviewed by host Richard Wolinsky. Recorded  on July 14, 2023. Lisa See's best-selling books include Snow Flower and the Secret Fan, Peony in Love, China Dolls, and most recently, The Island of Sea Women. Each novel, thus far, focuses on the role and lives of women of East Asian descent in various countries, including Korea, Japan, China and the United States. Some of the novels focus on a mystery, others take place within the context of historical events. Her latest novel, “Lady Tan's Circle of Women” looks at the life of an historical figure, a female doctor of upper class birth living in China in the 15th Century. As Lisa notes in the interview, the circumscribed life of Tan Yuxian bears a startling resemblance to the isolation we all felt during the Covid lockdown.

If you're a pet parent, you've likely experienced the anxiety of wondering if your furry companion is in pain or discomfort. However, for many pet parents, the cost of veterinary care, and the inability to know whether a pet is truly experiencing health issues, results in a decision to postpone a visit to the vet, which ultimately results in poor health outcomes for the pet. As a pet parent, I've experienced firsthand the critical importance of early detection. My journey with Peony has been a testament to this: Shortly after adopting her in 2017, Peony pulled a groin muscle. During treatment, a routine SNAP test revealed she was heartworm positive - a condition she had tested negative for at the shelter. Catching this early was potentially life-saving. In 2019, while petting Peony, I felt a lump. My immediate decision to have it checked led to an early melanoma diagnosis, significantly improving her prognosis. More recently, we were able to address neurological episodes promptly due to timely veterinary intervention. These experiences underscore the irreplaceable value of attentive pet parenting and regular vet check-ups. But imagine having a device that could alert you to potential health issues even between these crucial moments of discovery and scheduled visits. That's where Maven.Pet comes in. On the latest episode of Petworking, I had the pleasure of speaking with Guilherme Coelho, co-founder and CEO of Maven.Pet, about their AI-driven, innovative wearable health monitoring device for pets. Here's how Maven's AI is changing the game: 24/7 Health Monitoring: Maven's device attaches to a pet's collar, continuously tracking vital health metrics like respiratory rate, activity levels, and sleep patterns. But it's not just collecting data - the AI is constantly analyzing this information in real-time. Early Detection is Key: Inspired by a personal experience with late-stage canine arthritis, Maven aims to catch health issues earlier, potentially improving outcomes and reducing treatment costs. Personalized Baselines: The AI establishes a unique health baseline for each pet, considering factors like breed, age, and medical history. This allows for truly individualized health monitoring. Veterinary Integration: By partnering with clinics and integrating with practice management systems (PIMs), Maven provides vets with valuable insights between visits. By connecting with PIMS, Maven can access a pet's complete medical history, provide vets with pre-appointment insights, and flag potential issues based on both real-time and historical data AI-Powered Analysis: An artificial intelligence system analyzes the data, flagging potential issues for veterinary review. By processing vast amounts of data, the AI can identify subtle changes that might escape human notice, potentially predicting health issues before obvious symptoms appear. Balancing Information: While vets receive detailed data, pet owners get a simplified app view to avoid unnecessary worry. Future Potential: There's exciting potential for partnerships with pet insurance companies to offer data-driven, personalized pricing. The Maven system represents a significant step forward in preventative pet healthcare. By providing vets with a more complete picture of a pet's health over time, it enables earlier interventions and potentially better outcomes. It's not about replacing professional judgment, but enhancing it. The AI provides vets with pre-appointment insights and flags potential issues, empowering them to make more informed decisions.

Welcome back as we introduce you to the bounty of specialty crops that Wisconsin has to offer and the families who produce them. Ovans Peony Farm in Beaver Dam is one of the sweetest-smelling farms you'll visit. Here you'll find more than 100 varieties of peonies. Michelle Ovans takes some time with us as she prepares for the Wisconsin Arts & Peony Festival. This is in Beaver Dam June 7-9. Ovans Peony Farm will be center stage during that event, but things might look a little different than years past after a spring storm came through. She estimates hail damage took out 80 percent of her crop, meaning that she won't be able to harvest flowers this year. However, the blooms currently on the plants will still be stunning. Her farm will also be the centerpiece for the National Peony Society's annual convention and flower show in 2025. Michelle tells us how a 20-year career in the U.S. Navy turned into flower farming. She says through the Wisconsin Agricultural Tourism Association, you can find a network of specialty crop farmers to help you start or expand your own farm venture. This podcast series is brought to you courtesy of Specialty Crop Block Grant 23-10.

In this episode, we continue with part six of our Lenten book study Be Transformed by Dr. Bob Schuchts. We discuss how the Sacrament of Anointing of the Sick heals the wound of hopelessness and share the different ways we approach these dark and sometimes scary places in life. While, in the moment, it may appear that we are alone, God never leaves us and wants to restore our hope in Him. Whenever you experience hopelessness, we invite you to surrender your sorrows to Him and courageously place your hope in our faithful God. Hey friends! We are going to continue this series with one more bonus episode next Monday, April 3rd to share further insights and conclude Be Transformed.    Heather's One Thing - Matt Maher's new albums exclusively on Hallow Sister Miriam's One Thing - The wonderful people in Grand Rapids, MI from the KEPHA men's and women's conferences! Michelle's One Thing - Missionaries!   Other resources mentioned in this episode: S6 E13 - The Light Shines in the Darkness with Fr. Justin Brady Why Your Story Makes It Hard to Hope - Adam Young (The Place We Find Ourselves Podcast)   Discussion Questions: Is Jesus' resurrection real and important in your daily life? What prevents you from believing that Jesus is who He says He is? For which wounds or sorrows have you started to lose hope for healing? What is the truth that God is inviting you to proclaim in response to feelings of hopelessness?   Journal Questions: How have you encountered the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick? Where in my life do I experience hopelessness? What obstacles in my life and heart make it hard for me to experience hope? What does the Holy Spirit need to remind me of in this season of life?   Quotes to Ponder:  “Every temptation comes down to this one final temptation, it is the temptation to believe that the satisfaction of the deepest desires of our heart is totally up to us.” - Fr. Albacete   Healing and miracles often increase our hope, but they are not the basis for our hope. We have another more trustworthy, rock-solid foundation for our hope: the person, Jesus Christ, who describes himself as “the resurrection and the life.” He told Martha, anyone who believes in him will never die (see Jn11:25-26). Holding firm to this hope, we are promised a share in his life. All of us who believe in the Resurrection are already “raised to life” This is our hope.   - Be Transformed, pg 150   Scripture for Lectio:  "Cure the sick, raise the dead." - Matthew 10:7–8   Sponsor - Leanne Bowen: Today's sponsor is Leanne Bowen Fine Art.
