Welcome to The Woof Life Show - a podcast created for dog lovers, by dog lovers! Hosted by Lauren Farricker.

In this episode, Lauren chats with Matt and Meg Meyer who are the founders of The Bear and the Rat. The Bear and the Rat is a company that creates natural dog fro-yo that is healthy for your pup. Did you know that ice cream is really unhealthy for your dog due to the lactose? Most times it makes pups feel quite ill.

Matt and Meg had a dream that they wanted to create a healthy alternative that is actually good for your pup, the craziest part of this story is that Matt conceived of this idea when he was eight years old!! The pup-muses behind this business were a lhasa apso named Quimby Fosse affectionately known as "The Bear" and Laika Ignatius a rat terrier who Meg and Matt referred to as "The Rat." 

They created the company and were seen on Shark Tank where the sharks even tried the human-grade dog fro-yo! These are incredible business owners and my Pixie could not be a bigger fan of their product! If she could write love letters to Meg and Matt, she would! 

You can find The Bear and the Rat at pet stores and at your local Whole Foods! It is a great way for your pup to cool off with the hot summer sun without compromising health.

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
