    What does good welfare really look like for bears and other non-human animals living in zoos—and how can we measure it in meaningful, practical ways?In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Anna Fourage, animal welfare expert, to explore the development of welfare assessment tools for captive bears, with a special focus on zoos across Asia and Thailand. She co-founded People or Pets in China, holds an MSc in International Animal Welfare, Ethics, and Law from the University of Edinburgh, and just finished her PhD in anthropology researching the role of zoos in Thailand. Anna shares key insights from recent research on creating a composite welfare assessment tool for hibernatory bears, unpacking its major findings, strengths, and current limitations.We dive into the reliability of keeper ratings as welfare indicators across different institutions, discussing the real challenges of intra- and inter-rater consistency. Together, we explore which behavioural, physiological, and environmental indicators are currently the most valid for assessing bear welfare.Beyond the science, this conversation tackles the practical and ethical realities of zoo welfare. How can welfare tools be designed to be both scientifically robust and realistically usable, especially in resource-limited settings? What are the biggest barriers facing Thai zoos in improving welfare standards?We also broaden the lens to the global ethical challenges of keeping large mammals in captivity, discussing the evolving mission of modern zoos—balancing conservation, education, and animal welfare—and how visitors can be meaningfully engaged in that mission.An essential listen for anyone interested in animal welfare science, zoo ethics, conservation, andthe future of captive wildlife care.Dive deeper...Environmental Parameters as Indicators of Bear Welfare (Fourage et al. 2025)-  https://doi.org/10.1002/zoo.70010High Prevalence of Dysfunctional Animal–Visitor Interactions in 225 Southeast Asian Zoos and Aquariums (Fourage et al., 2024)-  https://doi.org/10.3390/ani14223167Increase in the number of captive lions in Thailand suggests ineffective legislation (Fourage et al., 2025)  https://doi.org/10.1007/s44353-025-00040-4If you have any comments, suggestions or questions, please email: podcast.daretocare@gmail.com.We are always happy about feedback!FOLLOW US ON SOCIALS - Instagram: @daretocare_podcast

    In this episode of Toni Unleashed, Toni Shelaske welcomes back Rebecca Rose of inClover Pet Supplements for an in-depth conversation focused on skin and coat health, supplementation, and what truly supports pets from the inside out. Using Toni's own rescue dog Grayson as a real-world example, the discussion explores how nutrition and targeted supplements can dramatically improve skin recovery and coat quality after early health challenges. Rebecca breaks down the science behind inClover's Skin & Coat supplement, highlighting the role of clinically tested levels of biotin, zinc, and omega-3s, and explains why sourcing—particularly algae-based DHA—matters for both effectiveness and environmental sustainability. The conversation emphasizes repairing skin at the cellular level rather than relying solely on topical solutions. They also dive into label transparency, inactive ingredients, and the importance of NASC certification, offering listeners a clearer understanding of how to evaluate supplements responsibly. From dogs and cats to horses and even zoo animals, the episode reinforces a core message: thoughtful nutrition and daily supplementation help pets stay resilient in the face of stress, aging, and environmental challenges.

    In this moving episode of The Radio Medium Laura Lee Show, Laura Lee connects with Rand from Northeast Ohio for a powerful spirit reading centered on unconditional love, animal soul connections, and healing after loss. Spirit immediately presents symbolic imagery tied to the Egyptian god Anubis, the guardian of the afterlife — a meaningful sign confirmed by Rand's beloved dog, who was named in honor of this ancient guide. As the reading unfolds, multiple dogs from Rand's lifetime step forward alongside his parents in spirit, revealing how deeply bonded animals remain with us beyond physical life. One dog, in particular, offers reassurance by describing familiar routines — resting beside Rand, taking daily walks, and the deep sense of rescue they shared. Spirit brings peace surrounding this dog's sudden passing, emphasizing that nothing was done wrong and that love, safety, and comfort defined his final years. Guidance is also offered about continuing daily walks and welcoming another dog into Rand's life — a sign that healing, movement, and companionship remain essential for mind, body, and soul. This episode offers comfort to anyone grieving a beloved pet, reminding listeners that animal companions never truly leave us.

    Happy holidays once again! This is being aired the day after Christmas, or on Boxing Day for those who are in places that do a thing called Boxing Day. I guess it has something to do with giving boxes, or having boxes, or maybe relatives boxing one another after spending time together over the holidays. Whatever it is, hope you have a happy one. The actual origins, according to Wikipedia, seems to be around the mid 1700s when “traditionally on this day tradespeople, employees, etc., would receive presents or gratuities (a ‘Christmas box') from their customers or employers.” So maybe one of the earlier manifestations of customer and employee experience. One of the things that I love about doing experience design is how relatively small things can make someone feel like a superhero. Little acts of experience design can make a big difference in people's days and even their lives. And isn't that what it is all about, including the holidays? Whatever you believe or don't believe regarding the holidays, being mindful of extending small acts of kindness or doing something that is relatively simple to make a huge impact. Which is a perfect thing to keep in mind for our show today. My guest on Experience by Design is Erika Sinner. Erika brings a lot of compassion and empathy to the world. In fact, she prefers the title of Chief Empathy Officer. Her book Pets are Family emphasizes the importance of pet bereavement policies in organizations. This is just one part of her efforts to bring more empathy to the workplace. She also is the CEO and Founder of Directorie, “a(n) agency that connects seasoned commercial, marketing, and market access experts” with organizations that are under-resourced and overworked. If that wasn't enough, she now is the Chief Empathy Officer of Tiny Super Heroes, which makes children who are facing unique medical challenges to feel like the superheroes that they are. As their website states, “We're setting out to transform hospital culture - one hospital at a time - because every child's clinical journey should be filled with strength, hope, and a little more fun.”As part of Tiny Super Heroes, children get their own superhero capes and get badges to mark the medical treatments they receive as well as other accomplishments. It is all at no cost, and made possible through the donations of individuals and organizations, and aims to reach all 226 children's hospitals in the country.We talk about Erika's personal journey and struggles that led her to her work as a founder Directorie and now CEO of Tiny Super Heroes. We also talk about the importance of play in the workplace as a way of creating a sense of safety and trust. Talking about culture as a leader isn't enough; leaders need to take the necessary steps to create a place where employees don't dread Sunday nights because they have to go to work on Monday. She discusses the importance of company culture and employee commitment in attracting top talent, especially for Gen Z and Gen Alpha who prioritize making a difference.Erika discusses the positive impact of the Tiny Super Heroes program on children with medical conditions, highlighting how it helps reduce anxiety and improve clinical outcomes by transforming medical experiences into fun missions. The program has online support groups for parents, which currently have around 60,000 members. Healthcare providers also benefit from the program by creating a more positive and playful environment in hospitals. In this way, it is really an experience design that impacts the healthcare ecosystem.So on this Boxing Day, you can listen to this episode and head over to the Tiny Super Heroes website to give a gift that can make all the difference.Erika Sinner: https://www.linkedin.com/in/erikasinner/Erika Sinner Website: https://www.erikasinner.org/“Pets are Family” Book: https://www.erikasinner.org/for-bookstoreDirectorie: https://www.directorie.com/Tiny Super Heroes: https://tinysuperheroes.com/

    In Episode 355 of The Canine Paradigm, we ask a simple question with a messy answer. Is a tired dog a good dog, or just a flat one? We look at why clients and trainers sometimes try to tire the dog out before a lesson, and when that helps or hurts. Then, we weigh arousal, clarity, and quality of reps, and we talk about warm ups, decompression, and sensible resets.We also touch on session design, neutral exposures, and how to set criteria that the dog can actually meet. Sometimes you need a little exercise to take the edge off. Sometimes you need freshness, focus, and fuel in the tank. Choosing well is the craft.To keep spirits high, we finish with a few side notes and celebrate Step Brothers as one of the greatest films ever made. Boats and Hoes does not make it into the training plan, but it does make us laugh. Further Details Are you in search of top-tier dog trainers and steadfast supporters of the Canine Paradigm?

    What do we do when a service isn't working anymore—but we don't want to lose the revenue or the client? In this episode, we walk through how converting clients is leadership, not upselling, and why adding or changing a service isn't a failure. We break down two conversion scenarios: when the service is a poor fit for the pet/client, and when it's a poor fit for the business. We share practical strategies for leading with friction points, using observational authority, and making the transition feel low-risk through trials and clear replacement paths. We also talk about the reality that some clients will leave—and why staying aligned with your standards matters more than keeping every dollar. Main topics: Conversion as business leadership Fit for pet vs. business Solve friction, not sell Trials and switching costs Ending services with clarity Main takeaway: "Converting clients isn't about squeezing more out of them. It's about staying aligned as their life and your business changes." Converting a client to a new service isn't a sales move—it's a leadership move. Sometimes the most professional thing we can do is admit: the old way isn't the best way anymore. Pets change, schedules change, businesses change, and great care has to keep up. If we lead with the problem (the friction), it feels like care—not a pitch. And if a client decides not to come along, that doesn't mean we failed—it means we stayed aligned with the standard of care we believe in. Links: Check out our Starter Packs See all of our discounts!

We find out the evolutionary advantage of kissing, which animals do it, how scientists define "kissing," and why it actually could protect us from harm. Susie explains why raccoons might become the next domesticated animals, why they seem to be ushering in their pet era, and why experts are convinced it's inevitable. We discuss the new female test dummy (or smartie as Susie calls her), and why it took so long to get it made, why people still aren't happy, and why it's so expensive to make. We're mad at the Guinness World Book of Records again because of their evolving business model and the schemes they're using to make bank.
