  • Aging Gracefully: Breakthrough Insights for Senior Dogs with MycoDog’s Study | S8E19

    Aging Gracefully: Breakthrough Insights for Senior Dogs with MycoDog’s Study | S8E19
    Oct 23 2025
    In this episode of the Canine Culture Podcast, host Brittany sits down with Carter Hughes of CBD Dog Health and MycoDog to explore groundbreaking research into how medicinal mushrooms and adaptogenic herbs can help senior dogs age gracefully.Carter shares details from MycoDog’s recent study on cognitive decline in older dogs — the first of its kind — which revealed that 81% of participating dogs showed stabilization or improvement in their cognitive function. Learn how ingredients like lion’s mane, reishi, and cordyceps, paired with adaptogens such as ashwagandha and bacopa, are supporting brain health, reducing stress, and improving sleep in senior pets.Brittany also shares her own experience with her senior dog Titan, who participated in the study, offering a real-world perspective on how these natural remedies can make a remarkable difference in your dog’s vitality and quality of life.Whether you’re caring for an aging dog or simply passionate about holistic pet wellness, this episode delivers powerful, science-backed insights on how natural medicine is changing the way we care for our furry family members.-------------------------------------------------About MycoDog:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠After seeing how functional mushrooms supported our dogs' wellness during some of their toughest health challenges, I made it my mission to help every dog experience the benefits of these natural allies.However, my research unveiled a disheartening reality: the existing mushroom products on the market fell short.Most of these mushrooms were sourced from China and cultivated on inferior substrates like oats and sawdust and with improper extraction methods further diminishing their efficacy.The challenge of administering powders only compounded the issue, often resulting in refusal from my dogs when it came time to eat.Determined to rectify this problem, I founded MycoDog, driven by a commitment to deliver products of unparalleled excellence. No dog should be denied the life-changing potential of mushrooms.This isn't just a business—it's a promise to provide the absolute best for our beloved companions.-------------------------------------------------Follow MycoDog :MycoDog Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow On Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow On Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow On TikTok⁠Follow On YouTubeFollow On Pinterest-------------------------------------------------Give the episode a listen on your favorite podcast platform and let us know what you think!

    The Inked K9 | S8E18
    Oct 16 2025
    In this episode, Brittany sits down with Cassidy, owner and balanced dog trainer at Inked K9, to unpack what balanced training really means — and to clear up some of the biggest misconceptions around it.Cassidy shares her journey from growing up surrounded by animals to running her own 16-acre training facility serving Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia. She explains the difference between reactive and aggressive behavior, how she tailors board-and-train programs versus private lessons, and why clarity and communication are key for confident, well-behaved dogs.You’ll also hear about her work with Coastal Canine Rescue, her soft spot for senior dogs, and how she helps families prepare their pups for big life changes — even welcoming a new baby.If you’ve ever wondered what “balanced training” really looks like or how to help your dog thrive through structure and understanding, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.-------------------------------------------------About The Inked K9:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠I’m Cassidy, the trainer behind Inked K9. I started this company to give dogs and their owners a real path forward, built on clarity, structure, and lasting results.My love for training began early. Growing up, I taught my family’s dogs and horses fun tricks, and that curiosity quickly turned into a lifelong passion. Through my teenage years, I worked at doggy daycares, eager to learn as much as I could. In 2022, I began a two-year apprenticeship, and by 2024 I launched Inked K9 to share my knowledge and experience with others. That same year, I also completed NePoPo® Silver School, further sharpening my skills in modern, balanced training techniques.Over the years, I have worked with a wide range of dogs, from puppies to working dogs, basic manners to complex behavior modification cases. I believe the best teachers never stop being students, which is why I continue to read, study, and attend seminars to stay sharp and deliver the best for my clients.Whether your dog struggles with pulling, reactivity, or simply lacks clear communication, I believe every dog can thrive with the right balance of structure and leadership.At Inked K9, we don’t rely on shortcuts or one-size-fits-all methods. We focus on customized training that builds real results for your dog, your lifestyle, and your goals. My approach goes beyond teaching commands. It is about creating a reliable relationship between you and your dog. And when you train with me, you’ll have my support for the life of your dog.-------------------------------------------------Follow The Inked K9:The Inked K9 Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow On Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow On Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow On TikTok-------------------------------------------------Give the episode a listen on your favorite podcast platform and let us know what you think!

  • Heartworms and How FOJA is Making an Impact | S8E15

    Heartworms and How FOJA is Making an Impact | S8E15
    Sep 25 2025

    In Part 2 of our heartworm series, host Brittany continues the conversation with Grace from Friends of Jacksonville Animals (FOJA). This episode goes beyond heartworm education and shines a spotlight on FOJA’s mission to support dogs in Duval County shelters and reduce unnecessary euthanasia.

    Grace shares how FOJA helps cover the high costs of heartworm treatment through their “Red Folder Program,” making adoption of heartworm-positive dogs possible for more families. We also discuss the importance of prevention, the realities of heartworm treatment, and why so many adopters shy away from heartworm-positive dogs.

    You’ll also learn how FOJA is making a difference by funding critical medical care, providing enrichment items, and organizing community events—all powered by volunteers and donors. Grace highlights ways you can get involved, from fostering and volunteering to attending upcoming events or simply spreading the word on social media.

    Whether you’re a local in Jacksonville or tuning in from across the country, this episode will inspire you to be part of the solution in helping shelter dogs find loving homes.

    -------------------------------------------------

    About FOJA:

    ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠FOJA, an all volunteer organization, was formed in 2008, and is dedicated to the well-being of homeless animals received by Animal Care and Protective Services. Each year, the shelter takes in thousands of unwanted, abused, and neglected animals. Our focus is to end unnecessary euthanasia, educate the public about responsible pet ownership, and enrich the lives of the shelter animals. All funds donated to FOJA go directly toward achieving these goals.

    It is FOJA's mission to help.
