Dr Ernie Ward returns to discuss an amazing new type of dog food and treats made of cultured protein and a japanese fungi! What is cultured protein? It is tissue, (meat) grown in a petri dish from a stem cell!  Basically it is like cloning and does not involve any genetic manipulation. It is sterile, with no contanimants, 100% meat without taking the life of an animal! The company also makes dog treats made with a protein from a fungi that has been used in human cooking in Japan for hundreds of years and is used to make soy sauce. Alternative food sources for our dogs to help keep our planet green! Learn all about it in this fascinating intrerview. This is not Sci Fi this is real and NOW!

“Wild Earth is challenging the status quo with cultured protein that’s safe and sustainable. We developed a novel way to deliver high protein, comparable to other animal derived protein sources, and in many cases even superior. We are creating the next generation of pet food to perfectly match your pets’ nutritional needs, and that is better for all animals, people, and the planet.

Our first cultured protein product is made from human-grade Koji, a fungi already enjoyed by billions of people around the world that is eco-friendly and renewably sourced.

Koji was domesticated by humans around 9000 years ago and is used to ferment some of our favorite foods like soy sauce or miso soup. Using modern technology, we’re now using this ancient food staple to create simple and clean proteins of the highest quality.”

Antonio Garcia was homeless on the streets of Chicago and for four years he shared an alley with stray cats that he loved and cared for. Four young women helped him feed the cats and got them neutered before he died of exposure to the severe cold of the windy city. Now these women and the community are continuing to manage and care for the colony in Antonio’s memory.

Cynthia Doepke, one of the four women working with Antonio join us to share the heart warming story of a simple man who loved cats and how a community stood with him. This cat tail of feral cats, TNR, and homlessness just might change some stereotypes.

In this podcast we meet Jennifer McConn and her six year old son Roman who transport dogs from over crowded shelters in Texas to Washington state where they find loving homes, and Roman is the spokesperson who makes videos of the rescue dogs to get them placed. Roman is a fantastic spokesman- articulate, funny, and caring!  A great role model for other children. Roman shares with us his love and passion for all the dogs he encounters and Jennifer tells us how it all got started.  A family making a difference, a child growing up with values of compassion, and death row dogs getting a second chance at life.  You cannot make up a great story like this!

Visit their Facebook page to contact them to sponsor a transport, get the latest news of the group, see great photos and to contact them! Please share and lets make Roman a national star! Making America compassionate again.

This is the story of everyday people in a community  that formed a group that provides fencing for people who chain their dogs- without judgment to give the dogs a better life and give residents of Washington state the ability to comply with the state of Washington’s tethering law. Learn how they made this program a success and how you can form a simular group in your community.  South Sound Freedom Fences is based in Tacoma Washington.

“Unchaining the Spirit

 We believe that every dog deserves a SAFE unchained life. Some owners need a little extra education or coaching on what life on a chain does to their sweet pooch. Sometimes it’s as easy as explaining the long lasting effects of a chain or tether, a repair to an existing fence and other times it’s building a complete fence from the ground up. These services are provided free of charge to the family. “
