    Aug 27 2026
    This week on Best Bets for Pets, Michelle Fern explores the buzz around turmeric and what this ancient spice may offer our four-legged family members with Mary Beth Powers, creator of Teddy’s Turmeric Tamer. Mary Beth shares the remarkable story of Teddy, her beloved Newfie mix who was diagnosed with aggressive sarcoma and given only two to four weeks to live—and how her determination to find a natural way to support him led to a turmeric-based formula and, remarkably, three more years with Teddy. They discuss turmeric and curcumin, inflammation, joint and arthritis support, why ingredients such as healthy fats and black pepper are used to aid absorption, and how pet parents can thoughtfully incorporate supplements into a dog’s wellness routine. Mary Beth also explains when turmeric may not be appropriate and why consulting your veterinarian is essential, especially for dogs taking medications or living with certain medical conditions. Plus, Michelle gets the scoop on Teddy’s Tick Tonic, label-reading tips every pet parent should know, and a special discount just for Best Bets for Pets listeners. It’s an inspiring look at how one dog’s journey became a mission to help other dogs live happier, healthier lives.

    Whisker Report - Episode 45 Puppies, Players & Publicity: An NFL Insider's PR Playbook
    Sep 17 2026
    What can a rescue organization or pet business learn about PR from the NFL? Quite a lot! This week on The Whisker Report, Mary Tan and producer Mark Winter welcome Brad Madson, retired Community Relations Director for the Minnesota Vikings, who spent 25 years connecting professional athletes with charitable organizations, community events and causes that generated both goodwill and media attention. Brad reveals how animal rescues can approach their local professional sports teams, why you shouldn't automatically chase the biggest superstar on the roster, and how discovering a player's personal passion for animals can open unexpected doors. He shares terrific behind-the-scenes stories involving Vikings players including Randy Moss, Adam Thielen, John Sullivan, Anthony Harris and Nate Burleson, from players introducing newly adopted dogs to their families at a Puppy Bowl event to Anthony Harris sharing his adopted cats on social media. Brad also explains why a strong visual hook can turn a small nonprofit event into a media story, why organizations need to make participation easy for athletes, and why relationships—not simply press releases—are at the heart of successful PR. Whether you're running a small rescue, nonprofit or pet business, this episode offers an insider's playbook for teaming up with professional sports to score some serious visibility.
