Show notes

"The volunteers, the vets, the organizations...they are doing the hard work ultimately. We get the glory because no one hates an airplane and a puppy and it is a great story, but the truth is, we have the easiest job. We are bus drivers for these animals." You may know Fred from The Fred Show as a popular Chicagoland (and beyond) Radio Host, but what he does in his spare time as a volunteer to save animals is truly remarkable. Fred joins me y to talk about his love of animals and flying and how he combined the 2 to help save lives via Pilots N Paws. More here: www.pilotsnpaws.org. Follow Fred on insta at @fredonair

Join Sarah Lauch (THE HOST), the Founder of the Live Like Roo Foundation! September 8th marks the 8 year Anniversary of Roo's passing and since then, we have helped over 20,000 families and paid over $2 million in medical grants.

Unmuzzled: A Pawdcast with Lost Woods Animal Sanctuary & Bosly's Backyard Aug 18, 2023

Show notes

A 2-fer podcast with Lost Woods Animal Sanctuary and Bosly's Backyard. Women-owned businesses making a big difference in their communities. I get tagged on so many animals and some are very unique. Lost Woods Animal Sanctuary is doing incredible work in the suburbs of Illinois. They take in small exotic pets and educate the public on these pets. Unfortunately, they have a waiting list for owner surrenders, so the education portion of their mission is so important. For more on this inspiring sanctuary: www.lostwoodsas.com. Inspired by her own dog, Kim Theobald created Bosly's Backyard so that dogs could play in a space away from dog parks, busy sidewalks and tiny backyards. Owners can enjoy time with their pet in a sizable space in Ravenswood. To book playtime, a party, donate a play day and learn more: www.boslysbackyard.com
