Steinn, who is the host of the Pet Show. You can find the
Pet Show at Petshow dot thepetshow dot com. You can find it on a
radio stage as many of the same stage they carry this program Carrie Warren as
well they should. Today, my friend, is National Farm Animal Day.
Did you know that cattle being raised for food and milk that began back eight
thousand and eight thousand BC in the Middle East? Did you know that?
I did care. I didn't know that. Did you know which the first
ranch in America was? Where it was? No, No, it was
it was on Talk Point on Long Island. Yeah, and I did some
I did some work at that ranch, and that was exactly that same I
think the name of the ranch. But that is the Teddy Roosevelt train,
the rough riders before they went to Cuba the island. Absolutely stuff I know.
This is that's worthwhile information. Is nothing wrong with that is interesting.
The I'm just following simple logic here, looking at animals and the products that
we consume from them, the way that they help us, and the way
that we don't acknowledge them. You know, all of the huzzer eye about
methane gas from these people who think that cows are ruining the atmosphere so we
should get rid of them. I don't eat meat, and I don't hold
with it, but that's up. It's an individual choice because I raise cows
that give milk, and milk is very helpful to the to the survival and
the health of mankind. Whether you know you see it that way or you
don't, that's the fact. So only way I thought we would acknowledge National
Farm Day farm animals, and you know what, farmers. Farmers really get
a bad rapper off. You know, first, I don't eat meat either,
and I'm you know, very very much pro animal, but I've noticed
over the years that that that farmers do have a certain relationship with the animals
that that in many many cases, I'm talking about people like yourself, that
dairy kind of whatever, what an incredible bond they have. You know,
to some people it's just animals, but the the true farmer, and and
and and the bond they have with the animals they live with every day is
just absolutely incredible. Yep, all right, You've done some research that finds
dogs increase one's brain power. How does that happen? What does the research
show? Just look at me, Okay, that's it. Okay, hanging
out, hanging out with dogs for my whole life, Look at my brain,
look at me. I think the opposite. I think the opposite may
be true with me, but they do. You know, it's it's because
they let us be ourselves. They let our minds just go. You don't
have to be anything when you're around your dog, And I think that really
does help with the the the whole attitude that we have, the whole,
the whole way we look at life. I mean, sometimes I just say
to myself, you know, look at my dog. He's not worried about
this, he's not worried about that. You know, he's got food on
his play today, he put it outside this morning. He's happy. And
I think that people people tend not to be happy with what they have,
They always want something else. Animals were happy with what they have, and
I think that's one of the most important lessons I've learned. There were times
when I had nothing, I was okay. There are times when I had
more, I was okay. You have to learn and one of the things
I've learned me on is just just be in the moment. Don't worry about
yesterday tomorrow. The's nothing you can do about it. Just be in the
moment that's there. That's as much of a message as anything else we can
provide. You also have been talking on the air about whether your a dog
sees you as a mummy or a daddy, and that usually comes by way
of who feeds the dog right or am I? Am I on the right
track or the wrong track when it comes to you know, I asked that
question on my show this week. Do you consider yourself your dog or cats?
Mommy and daddy? And it was amazing how many people I'll actually do
that, I mean daddy's home or mommy's home. I think it's just a
different relationship, and I think it's it's it's kind of the relationship with the
person that that accepts the fact that, you know what, so their kid
has four legs and the tail and a lot of hair. It's the part
of the family. So I think it's a good thing. And the majority
of my listeners absolutely believe that it's okay to call their dog or their cat
to act as if they're the mommy or daddy or aunty or grandma. Great.
Well, I had a woman call me on the street great grandma to
one of the dogs, great grandma to one of those. But it made
her, It made her feel good, And I think people establish, you
know, your relationship with your pet is better than any relationship you can have
with any human being. That's just my opinion. They don't why, they
don't cheat, and they don't borrow money. What else can go? Viva
dog food has been recalled. I was looking at all of the dog foods
that have been recalled so far this year. Viva is the latest, uh
and the long line of products, and it's not just dog food. Does
recall a Food Farm Family report every day yere and it focuses on recalls the
things that are out in the marketplace a war and that are just junk.
So apparently this Viva dog food is loaded with salmonella and listeria, So don't
buy it, you know, that's the bottle And maybe next week we'll talk
more about dog food, what you need to really look for and how to
tell if you don't, And who owns the company that you're dealing with.
Is the bank or is it really some person behind the dog food that you're
feeding your dog? Kay? Yeah, good point. The next Stefan Good
