Injury Recovery and Why Your Dog Isn't Getting Better
In the very first episode of the Dogs That Can podcast, host Sarah MacKeigan, a seasoned canine rehab therapist, introduces listeners to the world of canine rehabilitation, sharing personal experiences and professional insights to help dogs get back on their feet again. Sharing her personal journey with her dog's CCL tears and later in life, degenerative myelopathy, Sarah explains why conventional rest and medication approaches may not always suffice for injury recovery. This episode emphasizes movement is medicine, exploring alternatives to surgery with conservative management and the pivotal role of canine rehab (dog physio). Sarah shares her goal of building a community that supports dogs with disabilities and aims to empower dog ‘parents’ with the knowledge to advocate for their canine companions by providing reliable information from global experts in canine rehab and wellness, and sharing uplifting stories from other pet parents.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
