Send us a Text Message.When our beloved pets face a crisis, every second counts, and having the right tools on hand can make all the difference. That's why we were thrilled to welcome back the ever-caring and insightful Dr. Cherie Buisson, a.k.a Doc B, to shed light on the importance of assembling a pet first aid kit. Together, we traversed the landscape of emergency preparedness, from the essential items every pet owner should have on hand to the personal tales of her own dachshunds' health scares that put these items to the test. Doc B's expertise illuminates how a well-stocked kit is not just about having supplies; it's about the peace of mind and readiness to protect our furry family members when they need us most.Navigating the do's and don'ts of pet first aid can be as complex as the animals we adore. In this episode, we go beyond the basics of bandages and gauze, unpacking the critical knowledge required to effectively manage pet emergencies. Our conversation spans the importance of proper medication administration, the dangers of substituting human drugs for pet pain relief, and the nuances of managing a pet choking incident. It's an educational journey filled with practical wisdom, including why keeping your vet's number close by and knowing the location of the nearest animal hospital can be life-saving. Doc B's personal anecdotes and practical tips arm you with the guidance to face any challenge, whether you're at home or adventuring outdoors with your pet.Preparing for the worst doesn't have to be daunting. As we wrap up this enlightening dialogue, we delve into specialized emergency scenarios like pet CPR and how to gear up for hurricane season with your four-legged companions in mind. Doc B reassures us that while pet first aid and training are important, they complement rather than replace the expertise of veterinary professionals. Our heartfelt discussion ends on a high note, with the revelation that Schotzi, Doc B's "quality control wiener," has bounced back to her spirited self. It's a testament to the resilience of our pets and the power of preparedness that gives them, and us, a fighting chance.Our guest today is Dr. Cherie Buisson (a.k.a. Doc B),  owner of Helping Hands Pet Hospice and Euthanasia Service.  Dr. Cherie Buisson is a 2000 graduate of Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine. She spent over 10 years in private practice and shelter medicine.  She started making pet hospice house calls in 2011 and found them to be the most fulfilling part of her practice. She is one of the first Certified Hospice and Palliative Care Veterinarians in the world, and the first to practice in the state of Florida. DocB is a Dachshund fanatic who enjoys reading, cycling, canoeing, and quilting.Can a luxury boutique experience involve dangling strands of Mastiff drool? We think so.

How much does it cost you to walk a dog or stay overnight in a client's home? While we typically consider expenses such as gas, insurance, and experience, what else should we include? Jill Jaffe, owner of "Fur Paws' Sake," joins the show to discuss why she's so passionate about offering "almost overnights" instead of actual overnights to her clients. Jill draws on the lessons she learned from her spirited little pup, Lily, emphasizing that running a business involves more than just financial costs. Main topics: From freakout to freedom Stopped overnights Understanding the costs Giving alternative options Main takeaway: Don't let clients or your business dictate what you should sacrifice in your own life. About our guest: Since childhood, Jill Jaffe has had a deep passion for animals and a strong desire to provide them with professional care. Despite her career as an executive administrative assistant in the entertainment and financial banking industries, fate led her to follow her true calling. Before her corporate journey, Jill eagerly immersed herself in animal care while in college. She began pet sitting for neighbors and referrals, gaining extensive experience with a variety of domesticated pets and even helping rehabilitate wildlife. Her volunteer work at the Los Angeles Wildlife Waystation in the Los Angeles Mountains included caring for orphaned baby raccoons, opossums, squirrels, crows, turkey vultures, sparrows, and finches. During her time at Moorpark College from 1992 to 1994, she studied diverse courses within the Exotic Animal Training and Management (EATM) program, focusing on exotic animal behavior and diversity, particularly big cats and primates at the school's zoo. After facing two corporate layoffs, Jill decided it was time for a change. In the summer of 2013, she founded Fur Paws Sake Pet Sitting and Dog Walking. She quickly acquired CPR and Pet First Aid training, joined the Pet Sitters International Association, and secured business liability coverage and bonding. These measures assured her clients that their beloved pets would always be in capable hands. Starting from scratch, Jill built her client base through social media, a website for online visibility, and traditional networking efforts to spread the word about her exceptional pet care services. She cherishes the opportunity to earn the trust of every pet owner and takes great pride in delivering top-notch service in the pet sitting and dog walking industry. With over 30 years of experience, Jill has been responsible for a wide range of animals, serving friends, extended family, neighbors, and referrals. Her responsibilities include daily feedings, administering medication, potty breaks, cleaning small pet enclosures, watering plants, conducting routine home security checks, and providing companionship to pets. Pet owners consistently appreciate her meticulous attention to detail and unwavering dedication, knowing that their non-human companions are in good hands and their homes are well-maintained upon their return.

Drawing from her own love and expectations for her pets, Kelly's Kritters goes the extra mile every day to surpass customer expectations and cater to the unique needs of every furry friend. The mission of Kelly's Kritters is simple yet impactful: to offer pet owners peace of mind when they can't be home with their beloved pets.

Moreover, the core values of the business include maintaining a high level of professionalism, honesty, integrity, and respect for personal property at all times. Kelly's journey into this fulfilling endeavor came after spending many years in the Corporate Sector. Feeling a deep connection to animals since her childhood, she knew that the next chapter of her life had to involve them. Her love and compassion for all creatures began with her first dog, Frosty, leaving a lasting impression on her heart. With certifications in Pet CPR and Pet First Aid, Kelly is well-prepared to handle any situation that may arise while caring for her clients' pets. Her experience extends to administering medication and volunteering at animal shelters and pet rescues, further showcasing her dedication to animal welfare. Kelly's personal furry family has consisted mostly of cats and dogs, but she has also welcomed fish, hamsters, gerbils, and tadpoles into her clan from time to time. Currently, she shares her home with two lovely cats named Ruby and Journey, who bring her endless joy and companionship. Through Kelly's Kritters, Kelly Hester is on a mission to provide love, care, and a sense of security to pets and their owners, creating a wonderful experience for all involved.

What does it mean to understand animal behavior? As pet care professionals, we need to make sure we are communicating well to our clients and are prepared for emergencies. Arden Moore, author and radio host, joins the show to discuss confounding behaviors for both dogs and cats. She also dives into how to make sure we have a great first aid kit and how emergency preparedness is all a mental game. Arden gives her best tips for pilling cats and discusses the importance of being a poop-ologist. Main topics: Confounding behaviors Mental game of preparedness Misconceptions of first aid Pilling Cats Main takeaway: We can't prepare for everything, but attention to detail, and the right resources, will set you up for success. About our guest: Arden grew up in a Brady Bunch-like family in a town called Crown Point located near Chicago in Northwest Indiana. During her first year in high school, she cajoled the editor of the local weekly newspaper into hiring her to be a sports writer. As a corn-fed Hoosier, she valued her Midwest roots, but knew she needed to experience other places. Her insatiable curiosity led to spending the next 20 years chasing stories as a reporter and editor for daily newspapers in Indiana and Florida. This is where Arden honed her amazing interviewing and writing skills! From there, she entered the publishing world at the family-owned Rodale Press. At Rodale, her “day job” was senior health writer for the book division, but she also moonlighted as a writer for their new magazine called Pets: Part of the Family. That is where Arden realized that she could tap her love of writing and interviewing to help people become healthier, and to tout the power of her other lifelong passion, pets. Pets and people — that's what Arden is all about. Fast forward to today, and Arden has done just that, in her trademark edu-taining style. Today, Arden happily shares her home in Dallas with her wife, Julie, and their furry Brady Bunch of three cats, three dogs and an overworked vacuum cleaner.

Today we speak with Lisa Wagner, Operations Director of Walks 'N' Wags Pet First Aid, national leaders in pet first aid. 

In this episode, we're joined by Arden Moore, master instructor of pet first aid and host of the nationally syndicated radio show "Arden Moore's Four Legged Life." We're honing in on pet first aid, why it's important, what you need to do in an emergency situation, and how to keep your pet safe from harm.

What are you willing to do to make your business run exactly how you want? Eleanor Oates, owner of Sitter4Pets, went as far as developing her own software to run her business. Eleanor shares how her corporate background helped her get off the ground in pet care and the importance of time management. After a car accident left her out of work for 7 years, she decided to do something new. She shares how she moved through those dark times and shares have she uses videos to connect with clients. Main topics Moving through dark times Time management Getting the right clients Using videos Developing her own software Main takeaway: Time management is more than just setting your calendar. It's about creating mental space and separating from what drains us. About our guest: 47 years old - Stubborn, driven Yorkshire lass from England ! Worked in corporate for most of my adult life. Live in Yorkshire with my partner, his 2 boys and dog called Bramble. Had a terrible Road Traffic Accident in 2002 that changed my life. After 7 years of constant pain and being off work, I decided to change my future and become a pet and house sitter. I am passionate about my pet and house sitting business that I have created from scratch. I am now looking forward to my next big adventure! I have been pet sitting since 2007. I haven't always been involved in this type of work though, I come from a corporate background. I used to work in The Law Courts followed by an Insolvency Practitioner's firm in Barnsley. That was until I suffered from a road traffic accident that completely changed my life. I was off on long term sick for 7 years due to back and hip issues and during my recuperation of my last operation, my cousin asked me to look after her home and pets. That was the beginning of pet sitting for me. After spending the first 5 years building a strong foundation in my business, I decided to resign from my corporate career and house sit on a full time basis. I soaked up as much knowledge as I could on topics such as Pet First Aid, Dog Behaviour, Dog Psychology, Dog Grooming, Cat Behaviour, Senior Pet Care and Pet Nutrition. I attended many courses in person and online and still love learning as much as I can in this pet related industry. Since 2012 I have been pet and house sitting full time, all year round, moving from one house to the next and 2022 represents the 10th year anniversary of my business.

Ash is CPR and Pet First Aid ready.Ash started Black Dog & Company after handling the logistics of trying to incorporate her ailing dog into her wedding day six years ago. Her wedding went off without a hitch but after she reflected on the experience and realized she didn't want to see a dog-loving couple ever struggle to include their dog in the biggest day of their lives. Since then Black Dog & Company has cared for a variety of dogs in all life stages, worked with amazing couples and extremely talented wedding professionals to make wedding dreams come to life!In her downtime, Ash enjoys a variety of activities including; hanging out with her dog Morgan, experimenting with craft beverages, cooking new recipes, and listening to podcasts.  In this episode, Jamie, Heather and Ash discuss:Bringing your furry best friend in one of the most important days of your life - your wedding dayLogistical challenges when bringing in a pup for a wedding day Some challenges with people as a wedding planner and dog attendantThe downsides to being a “Director of Belly Rubs” (if any!) Key Takeaways:Our pets are part of our family and the meaningfulness of the wedding increases if our furry best friends are included and taken care of during the wedding dayBeing a dog attendant in weddings is mostly balancing energy levels. Wedding days are high energy, super fun and stressful. The dogs are often feeding off the energy that the humans are giving off. Make sure that somebody trustworthy and reliable is always attending your dog when at weddings. As a wedding planner, remember that if a couple includes a dog in their wedding, that's probably because their dog is very special to them and thus they deserve a special kind of service.  "This isn't like a ‘tuck and roll, fido gets out of the car, ‘bye, have a great wedding day'' situation. I would never treat someone's dog like that and if someone treated my dog like that, we're gonna have some words."  — Ash Moore  Connect with Ash Moore:Website: https://www.blackdogandcompany.ca/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ash-moore-6a65371abPinterest: https://www.pinterest.ca/blackdogandcompanyca/ Connect with The Union Podcast:Website: https://theunionpodcast.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/unionpodcast/?hl=enShow: https://theunionpodcast.com/our-podcast/ Connect with Jamie:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdAcY6YGgF-RgGYXTsOENbAWebsite: https://jwcoordination.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jwcoordination/?hl=enFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/JWCoordination/ Connect with Heather:Website: https://theweddinghacker.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/weddinghackerInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/weddinghackerexpoPinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/theweddinghacker/ Show notes by Podcastologist: Justine TallaAudio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

What is the difference between walking my dog versus hiking with my dog? That's a great question. If you think about dog walking, it conjures up the picture of people walking their dogs in a typical neighborhood, or probably not that far outside of their neighborhood and walking maybe a half an hour, possibly an hour. Whereas what we do is conveniently pick up our clients’ dogs and we take them up into the mountains, in groups, in our vehicles that hold 12 dogs safely and comfortably. And we take them up to different trails in the mountains. And what we do there is we will hike dogs in nature with all of the fun stuff that goes on in nature.What goes in to preparing your dog for a hike and what should you take with you?How do you find good trails to hike on?What about encountering wildlife on the trail? Should I bring pepper spray?How can hiking with your dog help with leash reactivity? And we first should probably define what leash reactivity is.My guest today is Kath Allen who owns Hike Doggie. Kath spent 3 years hiking in the Italian Dolomites & Alps. She then moved to Golden, CO, enjoying a long successful corporate sales career and hiking with her dogs in the Rockies. 3 years ago, her company Hike Doggie was founded and now Kath & her team take 600+ dogs every month into the mountains for amazing on-leash hiking excursions. The result: happy, healthy doggies and guilt free parents for having provided their ‘dog children’ with an amazing life! Kath is a Certified Dog Walker and holds certifications in Pet CPR & Pet First Aid.https://hikedoggie.com/15% Discount off of 1st hike: Mention this Podcast or Give Code: WAG720.524.7858Musher's Secret Pet Paw Protection Wax
