GuestZach Skow HostsMark Drucker and Drew Webster Producer and EditorJohn LaSala LINKSMIRACLE MUTTS THERAPY DOG PROGRAM ABOUT ZACH SKOWZach Skow, Marley’s Mutts founder, rescued Marley, a Rottweiler-Pit Bull from the Mojave Shelter in 2002 at eight weeks old. He used to carry him around in a backpack with just his head poking out. When Zach was diagnosed with end-stage liver disease, it was Marley who helped pull him from despair and into the fight. It was his relentless love, omnipresent affection, and “today can be the best day of our life” mentality, that helped Zach live again. Zach founded Marley’s Mutts in 2009. Nonprofit, tax-exempt 501(c)(3) status was granted in 2010. Growing from a nonprofit about dog rescue, providing second chances, and rescuing the unrescuable dogs were the Pawsitive Change® Prison Program and Miracle Mutts® Therapy Dog Program. Sadly, Marley was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 15 and fought a courageous battle. He crossed over the Rainbow Bridge in 2016. Marley’s Mutts and the Mutt Militia are his legacy. SUMMARYIn this episode, hosts, Mark Drucker and Drew Webster have a moving conversation with Zach Skow, the founder of Marley's Mutt's, a shelter for rescued dogs located in Tehapachi, CA. Skow shares his personal journey of addiction, trauma, and recovery, highlighting the role that dogs played in saving his life, and his healing process overall. Skow discusses his early experiences with alcohol and drugs, the impact of childhood trauma on his relationships, and his struggle with liver failure. His father plays a crucial role in his recovery, advocating for his son's life and helping him navigate the medical system. Skow's story is a testament to the power of resilience, support, and the healing bond between humans and dogs. He started Marley's Mutts with the goal of making proactive societal change and addressing the issues of animal welfare. Marley's Mutts has several sectors, including a 20-acre rescue ranch, a therapy program called Miracle Mutts, and a program called Positive Change that pairs dogs with incarcerated individuals for training and rehabilitation. In the final part of the conversation, the three discuss the importance of addressing the root causes of shelter euthanasia and the need for massive spay and neuter programs and education. They also explore the parallels between the incarcerated individuals in Zach's programs and the animals they work with, highlighting the value of social support and the potential for rehabilitation and reform.

Show Description In this conversation, Part 2 of this series, Dr. Kathy Murphy discusses a wide range of topics related to canine neuroscience including brain development during both puppyhood and adolescence; the impact of spaying and neutering; the behavioral implications of sleep disruption; whether or not dogs really do dream; and the vital role of play for both dog and human. She emphasizes that puppy socialization should focus on building resilience and tolerance, rather than just tolerance. In adolescence, she explains that the dog brain goes through changes that lead to increased risk-taking and decreased impulse control. It is important to understand that the adolescent brain struggles with impulse control more than the puppy brain. Recognizing the challenges of adolescence can help set dogs up for success and prevent frustration and abandonment.

Shop for the pup in our store: Woof & Wear: The Shop **** OUR SPONSOR JOPE Hip & Joint Chews, veterinarian-crafted, made with UC-II collagen along with high quantities of Omega-3 and curcumin to improve mobility. **** ABOUT TARA BRACH Tara Brach’s teachings blend Western psychology and Eastern spiritual practices, mindful attention to our inner life, and a full, compassionate engagement with our world. The result is a distinctive voice in Western Buddhism, one that offers a wise and caring approach to freeing ourselves and society from suffering. As an undergraduate at Clark University, Tara pursued a double major in psychology and political science. During this time, while working as a grassroots organizer for tenants’ rights, she also began attending yoga classes and exploring Eastern approaches to inner transformation. After college, she lived for ten years in an ashram—a spiritual community—where she practiced and taught both yoga and concentrative meditation. When she left the ashram and attended her first Buddhist Insight Meditation retreat, led by Joseph Goldstein, she realized she was home. “I had found wisdom teachings and practices that train the heart and mind in unconditional and loving presence,” she explains. “I knew that this was a path of true freedom.” Over the following years, Tara earned a Ph.D. in Clinical Psychology from the Fielding Institute, with a dissertation exploring meditation as a therapeutic modality in treating addiction. She went on to complete a five-year Buddhist teacher training program at the Spirit Rock Meditation Center. Working as both a psychotherapist and a meditation teacher, she found herself naturally blending these two powerful traditions—introducing meditation to her therapy clients and sharing western psychological insights with meditation students. This synthesis has evolved, in more recent years, into Tara’s groundbreaking work in training psychotherapists to integrate mindfulness strategies into their clinical work. In 1998, Tara founded the Insight Meditation Community of Washington, DC (IMCW), which is now one of the largest and most dynamic non-residential meditation centers in the United States. She gives presentations, teaches classes, offers workshops, and leads silent meditation retreats at IMCW and at conferences and retreat centers in the United States and Europe. Tara’s podcast is downloaded more than 3 million times each month. Together with Jack Kornfield, Tara co-founded Banyan and the Mindfulness Meditation Teacher Training Program, which serves participants from 74 countries around the world. In addition to numerous articles, videos, and hundreds of recorded talks, Tara is the author of the books: Radical Acceptance | |||
