Speaker 1 (00:00):
Good morning, everybody, Live on the road again for the
Tony and Dwight Show, brought you by the Kentucky Office
of Highway Safety celebrating forty five years of the Jefferson
Annimal Hospital out here in Okanona. And just my first
impression of walking into the place i'd been. This is
nicer than some hospitals I have visited for humans.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
It is amazing, it really is.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
They have the best of the best when it comes
to physicians out here, and we are in the brand
new facility where you can actually blood if your cat's
over ten pounds, your dog's over fifty pounds. They can
actually save lives by giving blood out here. And we're
not talking about one life. We're talking about each donation
could be four to six lives. That they say they're
(00:43):
doing great work out here. And of course twenty four
hour service because dogs and cats and animals they don't
get injured nine to five.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
They trust me on that one.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
And we'll get to the supposedive shooting non shooting happening
at fairgrounds here in a second. But just to tell you,
there's a man that walked in this morning with me.
I held the door for him. He was bringing a
kiddie in and you could see his emotional state. And
she the kiddy had had got his leg caught in
between a little space and some outdoor furniture, and when
(01:14):
he was trying to get her out, it scared her
and she pulled up, broke her legs, broke the kitty's leg.
But you could see how emotionally destraught he was, and
he just wanted this the best care for this cat.
And that's what Jefferson Animal Hospital does. Look, you break
a leg, that they're going to fix you up, and
and uh, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
They're prepared for anything out here. We're talking at accident, poisoning,
accidental leg break. Even the worst of the worst they're
prepared for out here, and that would.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Be an Achilles tendon terror on an animal. Uh, that's,
as we know.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
The worst. We know.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
You're our dog expert, but you go even farther and
we'll talk more about that in the show of how
many surgeries you've had for your dog. So you're sort
of a pro when it comes to the anxiety, the
anxiety of putting dog under, the anxiety of the recovery.
I mean, I don't want to go too much into it.
But you guys moved your mattress down to your living room.
(02:08):
Oh yeah, and stayed with the dog in the living room.
Not because you're an overprotective crazy parent, but that's what
the dog needed at the time.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Well, it's because you loved the animal.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
We don't have a kid, So Lemmy is one hunder
the recipient of all of our love. Well, you get
five percent, and Austin from WAMC he gets another two percent,
But so ninety three percent of.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Our love goes to Libby. Man. What a weekend though.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
First of all, I want to thank everybody that came
out to Barnol's Pizza on Friday and donated school supplies.
Plus what a great show we had, What a fun
show we had out there.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
And did the TBT tournament? Did that start this week?
Speaker 4 (02:49):
No, that's this Saturday? Okay, yeah, this this aurday at
Freedom Hall.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
We had coach Lieberman on last Friday to talk about
the Ville the lineup, and of course Louisville's hosting a
side and Kentucky's host a side at Memorial Coliseum.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
They're not playing in RUP.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
All right, let's get to the run from the Roses
basketball tournament that happens every year at the Fairgrounds. It's
the biggest women's basketball tournament in the country, and it
was interrupted yesterday through the thought of an active shooter.
There was a fire alarm polled or some situation like that.
(03:23):
But the first time I heard about this, Dwight, was
my friend was flying in from Boston and he texted
our whole text chain and said, there are one hundred
police cars, fire trucks, ems all over the fairgrounds. What's
going on? And then the news started to bleed out
about what was going on. They didn't know if something
happened at Kentucky Kingdom, and it bled over to the
(03:44):
basketball tournament. But if you're watching videos, Dwight, these girls
are scared, They're screaming, they're running.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I have not seen the video yet. I do want
to see the video. What I did see and this
is how I found out. After church, we just came
home watching and starts growing Facebook and I see Sean
Wallace from Soul Circus and Katie Mack a great band
by the way, so Circus they were due to play
the water park out there, Hurricane Bay, and I see
(04:12):
Sean Wallace in a room jam packed with people, and
at the time he was under depression. Everybody was there
was an active shooter situation. So he posted a picture
and let everybody know what's going on. And he was
actually separated from his wife and his son. They were
on the other side of the park. Got in contact
(04:33):
with him. But the whole thing just made me sick
of my stuff, Like I sent you that screenshot and
then come to find out, we're not.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Sure what happened.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Beyond the rights response by LMPD. They came ready for
trouble if he came to them and ready to protect
the public. Beyond all that, which is a great response.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Chief good.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, but this is why we can't have nice things.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
No, I know, this is uh, this is the world
we live in.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
But this is why Louisville we you know, those those
families are gonna do what go back to their homes.
And by the way, is it a dozen different countries
or fifteen different countries that these teams come in from.
Oh yeah, they're just gonna go and what you're gonna
tend You're gonna tell all one hundred people today at
work what happened in Louisville, Kentucky, which will play into
the narrative of what we have nationally anyway.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Well, okay, so we got that going on here, and
we'll come back to this because it needs more conversation.
But at the same time, the state of Kentucky, you
have a shooting in Lexington, Kentucky, and all that's going
on the same day.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
And I find out from that. I find out about
the the Lexington shooting from a national news.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yes, I don't find out about any of my friends
in Lexington. I pop up Facebook. And here's the part
that sucks when it comes to Kentucky, the more action.
If you ever wondered why something comes up on your
feed first, it's because it has more action than any
other post that might And that was the first thing
that came up with shooting in lexingdic.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Antucked ABC News to your point. Ran a story A
multi victim shooting in Lexington began around eleven thirty six
am yesterday when a gunman shot at Kentucky State trooper
near Bluegrass Airport, then carjacked a vehicle, sped six miles
to Richmond Road Baptist Church. There, the subject, whose name
has not yet been released, walked into the service of
(06:26):
roughly fifty people and open fire, killing two women aged
seventy two and thirty two and wounding two men. Police
quickly surrounded the church and during the standoff they exchanged
shots with it with the assailant and fatally wounded the attacker.
Lexington Police Chief Lawrence Weathers called the scene devastating.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
It's twenty twenty five and times sure are different because
for about ten years now, I've carried a gun to
church every time I go. I'd rather have and not
need than need not have. I've got a concealed carrie from.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Ten years ago and I said, what's your problem?
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Right?
Speaker 4 (07:07):
And now I'm like, uh uh yeah, uh yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
If the church doesn't, I can't believe this, Like why
would he pick Blue h Richmond Road Baptist Church? Why
would he pick a church to go in there and
start shooting up? But obviously it was the end of
days for him or whatever the hell's in his head.
Uh but no, I And now, if if it's sad
that my wife has to walk her purst back to
the car at a high school football game, and it's
(07:31):
sad that we have to have arm guards at a
church during the service on Sunday, let's.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Get back to the louisvill Kentucky yesterday. The scare we
still know.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
I'm guessing that Metro say if LAPD, everybody's gonna be
unpacking this for days and then maybe we'll find out
exactly what happened.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Maybe we won't. But here's what I do know.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Is because of situations like that, and I hate saying this,
but it's the truth, people gonna think twice season passes
for the water park at Kentucky king I don't know.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
I don't know if Kentucky Kingdom was part of it.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
No, they weren't. They were, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
But right, but because of happening in the fairgrounds, will
that affect them financially too?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Uh, I don't.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
I don't know either, And is there a way? Look,
the most important thing we need to do. One thing
is the police response was warranted and delivered. So anybody
that's saying this was overkilled and you scared a bunch
of people, that is inaccurate, right, right, that is inaccurate.
The LMPD and the response team showed up and did
their job right. Second of all, we have to keep
(08:39):
this basketball tournament it is the second biggest revenue locally
behind the Derby. Okay, oh yeah, no, this thing is.
This thing is they have to stay for an expense
and it's weeks long. It's weeks long. So you have
again thousands of teams coming from all over the country
(09:01):
staying in hotels and eating for weeks. Okay, for weeks.
It's an extended stay. But yes, it is bigger than
louder than life.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
I'm hoping that it doesn't hurt Kentucky Kingdom. And if
you keep in mind, when you go to Kentucky Kingdom,
you're going through metal detectors. Yeah, there's wanding and there
is security there, sure so, uh.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
But not in the parking lot.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
No, not in the parking lot.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
But it will be interesting to find out exactly what
happened and if this is a because here's what listen,
let me be first, let me be crystal clear on this.
I have no idea what happened yesterday. Here is just
one of the things i'm hearing. One of the things
I'm hearing is some kids got together and they decided
(09:46):
to start yelling he's shooting, he's shooting, and.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Calls a widespread panic. That's just one of the theories
I'm hearing.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
How do you stop that, Well, you don't because kids
are always gonna be eating.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Yes, again, my brain's racing, right, So I'm thinking, was
there shots in the parking lot? Because you know, with
back of Kentucky, back in that parking lot of the fairgrounds,
critin and drive exits right there so that you can
park there and pull into there. You go out there
and take a left and it's one block away to
the and then one block away the expressway, So you
could you know, that could have happened.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
Who knows.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
We might not ever find out exactly what caused all this,
but again it is it leads into the conversation of
how do we get these these events to Louisville and
how do we keep them? Because I've had friends that play,
had daughters play in this tournament.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
They're like, this is special, Like, you have no.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Idea because girls don't have tournaments like this, right, boys
have them all over the country, and these big name
coaches can come and watch them. This is an opportunity
for your daughter that's off the radar to be seen
by the Jeff Walls of the world and say that
girl can play let's offer her a scholarship.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
It's big. There's a big deal.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
There was one thing that came out of that yesterday,
And again I didn't spend monch trying to spend less
and less time on social media, zero time with the
news practically. But here's one good story that came out
of that. If there is one, it's typical Louisville. I
know a girl who took her child out there to
Kentucky Kingdom and she was exiting the parking lot getting
(11:18):
ready to enter Kentucky Kingdom at the time. That's when
some teenage girls came out screaming and she started to
run and she said to her and her daughter hopped
in a car with another family. Another family just said
get it in her car.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Gosh, well that's.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Typical, I mean, you know what I mean that have
another family offer up, yes, here's safety, you and your
daughter get in the car. And that's what she did,
and then they drove off to the back of the
parking lot or whatever it might have been. But I
thought that was a little bit inspiring on such a
crappy situation.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
It's another stress for kids too, because you know, when
I was growing up, you know, you. And I don't
know if you did this with your family, but your conference,
your parents would ask you, you know, hey, if there's
a fire, here's how we get out of the house.
All fire drills, and you do and used to do
them at school. Remember fire drill school. You were hoping
the fire drill happened on the day we had a test,
and they would table the test to the next day.
(12:12):
You would still not study, but either what I neither
what I. But you did fire drills now and then.
The only other thing we did was okay, okay, yeah, okay,
all right, here's.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Here's a there's another drill that we had to do.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
Okay, I know what you're doing.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
There in case of a nuclear attack, exactly the case
of a nuclear attack.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
We had to go in the hallway and put a
book over our head.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Comedians said they used to do that so they can
just scoop us up easier. After But my sixth grade,
my sixth grade seat, because you know, they always moved
me next to the teacher. Almost immediately they're like, miss Venetti,
I don't think you're sitting in the back.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
Sit here.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
So the poster in front of me was a blast
zone radius nuclear because Fort Knox was the secondary UH
strike target, so they had circles out of Fort Knox
of instantly dead, die of burns, and then die of cancer.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
That's I stared at that.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I will never forget staring at that poster my entire
sixth grade and going And that's the stuff that.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
We lived with. Right, there's different fears now.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
But now we have active shooter drills in schools, which
must be what we have to do that, But think
about the mindset. They're supposed to be here just to
learn enough so they can move on with life, and
they have to have just in case someone comes in
and start shooting the place up. Here's what you do.
That stuff stays with kids, you know, it's it's it's unbelievable.
(13:43):
And I have no answer by the way I have.
You know, the smartest people in the world try to
come up with answers for all this. You know, I'm
like everybody else.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Well is this story unpacked? Well, uh, we'll keep you
informed as we get informed. But it is forty five
years baby Jeffers an animal hospital and that's what we're
out here. So Bradon plus the brand new Blood Bank
just the best of the best out here. I'm gonna
have a couple of special guests on the way and
it's more fun.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
But this place, as I walked through, I thought it
was just the front part, right, So that he goes, no,
I'm going to walk you through and we'll do it
to or later.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
I was like, great. We walk through and it is
just surgery room.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
It looks like a human hospital, actually cleaner than a
human hospital. And people that have pets know, and especially
folks like Dwight and Susan that you know this is
you know, the animals is one of the most important
things in their lives, yep. And you want people that
know what they're doing in charge of them at their
worst times.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
So they're celebrating forty five years of twenty four to
seven emergency treatment at Jefferson Animal Hospital. W'ere in Okalona.
Do I exactly where are we.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Come across from the Jefferson Mall? Yes, where we are
still open? Correct, it's somewhat open. If they don't call
it Jefferson Mall, ay or they call it something else.
Jeffers said another call like Jefferson.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Okay, I don't know, Yeah, I used to come out
here and and that was the only time in my
life I ever thought about getting a you know, a
spray airbrush T shirt.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Yeah, you gotta get an airbrush not the license plate
to a heart that says.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
You know, Cindy and Jimmy love Forever.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Our T shirt says it. And then we got a
matching uh license plate that goes on the front.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
It's got number four dash ever.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
And then and then Cindy ended up going, you know,
she was crying when they broke up, turning the screwdriver
to get the license plate off, going that's Jimmy is horrible.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
You know.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
The only thing that Jefferson Maw didn't have that should
have had. It's the guy making caricatures.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Have you?
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Yeah, isn't the characters? Isn't that one was on the.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Airbrush T shirt somewhat? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Did you get an AIRBRUSHR side?
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Did?
Speaker 4 (15:50):
It was on your airbrush T shirt? If you can
remember through.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
The bong water. Dwight loves Cindy with an eye.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Dwight love Cindy with an eye.

Yes, I want to talk in. Let's bring in my
buddy Adam ericson a man with a vision.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
No kidding. This has been a vision what we're standing
in right now. This has been a vision of yours.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
For quite some time, and now it's become a reality.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Scott felt pretty good because this looks fantastic here. We're
gonna talk to doctor Kennedy here in just a second
as well, but talk about that this was a vision
that you all had and now it's reality.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
How does that feel to walk in and see it
complete like this? Fantastic?
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Well, that's not a good are we go?
Speaker 2 (19:11):
There? We go, Let's make sure it's up. Hang on,
let's get doctor here. We go. Okay, and that's doctor
Kitty right there.
Speaker 5 (19:17):
I hey, doctor Kitty, trying to get everything ready for
the Lieutenant Governor to come here. Yes, we do an
amazing job here because I've got amazing doctors and amazing
staff who treat all of these pets like their own,
and they do a really good job. They've got I
don't know if you noticed all the cars in the
side here. We didn't make any appointments this morning because
this was going on, and they're busy as can be
(19:40):
with walk ins because what happened way back We opened
out of a little three bedroom house in seventy eight.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Wow, and then in.
Speaker 5 (19:49):
Nineteen eighty we decided to open twenty four hours. Louisville
is truly a twenty four hour town. We've got ups,
you know, they have shifts to get off at three o'clock,
at ten o'clock and at seven am.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Well, let's go back there.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
I'll put a panage just for one second, not to
interrupt you, but let's talk about it.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
We also had International.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Harvester, all of these other I mean that's what it was.
Speaker 5 (20:11):
Had shifts.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Yeah, I had shifts. Do people call you crazy when
you say you want to go twenty four hour?
Speaker 4 (20:15):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:16):
Well they didn't believe it. Yeah, nobody in the community
believed it because it was so unique and it was
so unusual, and because we were open twenty four hours,
nobody was going to come in the middle of the
night because they didn't really understand that we were here.
So we would do all our routine Spain neuter dental
stuff in the middle of the night, and then we'd
see clients during the day during normal hours, and well.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
The caring for animals has changed.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
I think the mindset of pets, yes, has changed since
seventy eight, dramatically.
Speaker 5 (20:47):
It's a human animal bond.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Yes, correct.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
And it's not just worked when you did it. It's
gone like a skyrocket up since then.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
Yes, And we're very attached to their pets.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
And to your point, this morning, you you didn't make
any appointments, but I saw I opened the door for
somebody at nine forty five or forty five this morning
and he had tears in his eyes. And because his pet,
I don't want to name the specifics, but I mean
his pet had a broken leg and he was he
was emotional trying.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
To tell me the story about it.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Yes, and that's what that's the stuff you do with
every day. And that's and to navigate that is something
you do well.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
And here's what I will say.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
I have been on the other side of that counter
on two of the darkest times of my life here
at Jefferson Hama Hospital. And what I'll say is, you're almost,
if not inconsolable while this is going on. Yes, I
had one dog that was hit by a car, another
one that was just a freak injury, and I got
to say the way the staff understood how much that
(21:50):
dog meant to me was unbelievable. And it shows through
the compassion and the kindness because you all have to
deal with this. It's a tough load to.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Carry because you know, the Monday doctor Kennedy. But for
them it's important.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
Yes, yeah, well we know that. And we have people
that have been coming to us for over forty years
with different pets. You know, they'll have one pet and
then he gets old and they lose them, and then
they bring their next one. So yeah, we have great
friends among our clients. I have a number of clients
(22:27):
that I would go to their parents' funerals and just
you develop a bond with these special clients.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Let's talk about one of your very special clients. Here's
one thing I will say about Joseph Animal Hospital. Every
patient is the most important patient. It really, at least
that's how it felt with me and my experience here.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
But one really took over international and that was Ethan,
Ethan Almighty.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
As a matter of fact, Ethan came here, they thought,
oh yes, they thought they thought that Ethan was dead,
and only when they got him on the table they realized,
wait a minute, there's breadth here.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
He was found in the parking lot at the Humane Society,
and his he was what we call kokesik. He was
skin and bones and he was barely breathing, and they
brought him here first. And then the Humane Society does
a tremendous job marketing their services, and they got that
out on the airways and we were getting they were
(23:27):
getting calls from Australia and France and just all over
the world. And doctor Buley put, the Maine Society director,
called me and asked if I could handle this, and
I said, no, we can't handle the phone the phone lines,
because we were busy on our own stuff too. So
basically we kept Ethan several days. He couldn't stand at all.
(23:48):
He could he could barely lift his head. Some of
the staff actually got in the cage with him and
held him, and we finally got him where he could
we could hold him up, and then he was knuckling
on his feet, and then we got him finally a
couple days later where he could put his feet down
and barely take a few steps. And then we finally
got him strong enough and the Humane Society it took
(24:09):
over from there and he went back over there.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
If there were ever a case where a physician could
walk in and say it's a lost cause, call it.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
In my opinion, that would have been one. But you
all said no.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
And look today that dog has helped him to be
a champion for so many.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
I want to also clear something up.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
We're talking by the way, doctor Kennedy and Adam Errington
is our guest right now where Jefferson Animal Hospital forty.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Five years they've been taking care of us. I want
to make someth the crystal clear.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
We've talked about the emergency coming out at two o'clock
in the morning because your dog might have ingested whatever.
It might have been, broken a leg or even worse.
But that's not the only reason you're open twenty four
hours a day.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
You're open to be convenient for.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
Those who might work third shift, first shift, second shift.
You can actually make appointments to get your shots, to
get your regular check up, to get de warned, whatever
it might be.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
It doesn't have to be an emergency, correct, right.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
He's just like a human emergency.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
But I'm just saying you don't have to be an emergency.
You could just be a doctor's checkup or whatever it
might be.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
We provide a tremendous service to the community. And we
know that we don't do that many appointments in the
middle of the night anymore. But we have clients who've
been coming here a long time. No they can call
and get their pets in and for vaccines or whatever
they need.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Doctor Kennedy, talk to about that person to your.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Right at good morning, guys, what.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
Do you think of this guy? What do you think
of this guy?
Speaker 6 (25:25):
We're so happy you guys are here, and this is
a really big day. This is a culmination of a
lot of things.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
We didn't want to miss it. Listen, we found out
what was going on. We did absolutely did not want
to miss us forty five years.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
It's a big deal. But let's talk about where we're
at now.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
This was a vision, a vision that you all made
reality and it's quite beautiful.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
And I guess what was painstaking?
Speaker 3 (25:46):
How long did all this take from you know, here's
what we want to do and we want to expand
by seven thousand feet square feet?
Speaker 2 (25:54):
How long from having the idea to making this reality?
How long that take? Sure?
Speaker 6 (25:59):
Well, we were very lucky to be able to do
this and this started from a need for space. We
were at the gills, as I said, right, yeah, for
so many years, and we needed space because of the
growing number of patients and cases we were seeing. We
were so lucky to do this project and adding seven
thousand square feet was just has been really great for us.
We had a lot of support from the city and
(26:20):
it's going to allow us to see more cases. We
will accordingly hire more staff and basically be able to
save more lives with this great new facility at over
fifteen thousand square feet.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Let's talk about the physicians and how well that you
treat because I find this. When I found out what
you all do with these physicians, it just set me
on top.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Of the world. Our veterinarians.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
Yeah, the veterinarians. You actually have homes for them.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
Yes, we have staff. Some of our overnight doctors live
a good distance away, you know, three to four hours away,
so we have housing back here with ms where they
can sleep right here and so they don't have to
come in they're not on call, but they don't have
to drive home after every shift.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
It's really quite incredible.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
And forty five years you've been in business and you
keep growing. I want to talk about the blood bank,
because it never dawned on me.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Yes, I'm not a veterinarian.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Yes, of course you need blood when you have surgeries.
And by the way, if your cat's ten pounds or older,
if your dogs fifty pounds are heavier, they can give blood.
I find it fascinating that each blood donation can save
four to six lives. Talk about how important it is
(27:42):
to get these donors, and talk about, by the way,
talk about the rewards not only for just saving lives,
but the reward for the owner and the pet as well,
because there's benefits.
Speaker 5 (27:53):
Yes, that you get all your vaccines, you're required vaccines,
no charge. Would they do a complete blood pro filed
every year, and which is important. Yes, you do these
just like your doctor does blood panels for you, right,
you know the white cell count and your CBC and
your chemistries for your kidney and liver. You can find
diseases early. But we do a very broad work up
(28:16):
before we accept these dogs as blood donors. Sure, and
it's pretty extensive.
Speaker 4 (28:22):
How many different are the other blood types like humans have?
Speaker 3 (28:26):
And there's like a ton, right, I mean, is it
something ridiculous like four hundred and twelve I'm exaggerating, but no, there's.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
And can you cross.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
I know humans have one whatever negative that they can
use on a patient that's been shot and come in.
So there are different types of blood, right.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
Cats have different types and dogs have different types of
You can't give dog blood shats and cats okay blood.
I was gonna look and have Sarah come in and
speak to that. I'm not that good at talking about
all the different blood types.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
That's okay, No, that's that's okay because everyone else is
a novice too. But I until you all talked about
until Dwight started talking about it, I'd never heard of
that before in my life. It's amazing. How we need
to get that message out.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
Yeah, we definitely need and they do have a lot
of perks.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Can I say something about the both of you? It's
it's obviously it's obviously you love what you do. Yes,
I mean it's quite absolutely.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
But it shows because you could tell what some people
just show.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Up to do it and oh we got a blood page.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Does does the dogg or cat get a lollipop like
a little when they give blood?
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Whatever?
Speaker 3 (29:41):
They get a cookie, they get a I share how
you do it?
Speaker 2 (29:46):
So how many different types of dog blood. Dog blood is.
Speaker 7 (29:50):
There right now? There's probably about eleven recognized types. There's
a couple more, wow Europe that we don't really recognize,
and they're discovering more every day. But there's about eleven.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Look at the smile that you can tell you love
what you do too. How long have you been doing.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
This the blood bank for eleven years now?
Speaker 2 (30:09):
But how long have you been in this field.
Speaker 7 (30:10):
Twenty five years?
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Wow? Yeah, it shows on your face. That's one thing
about it. I will say that what you'll see it
on the employee's faces down here, that it's not a job,
it's a passion. It is.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
So if let me donated blood and we put it
into another dog, with that dog woulcome angrier? Okay's glove
list or the only reason starts to speak German.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Only reason my dog bit you because he is a
tremendous judge of characters, no choice.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
It has nothing to do with his blood. He's just extually,
he's just an excellent judge of carre. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
But how many people, how many dogs and catch are
you getting in now to donate blood?
Speaker 4 (30:46):
A pretty good clip or.
Speaker 7 (30:47):
We have about seventy five dogs in the program and
probably about forty cats.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Oh wow, And how long does it take between the
times you give?
Speaker 4 (30:55):
So every couple of months.
Speaker 7 (30:56):
No sooner than six weeks. So six weeks is the safe.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
YEA about to say this, right, it's about the same.
Speaker 7 (31:02):
Every thing is pretty much the same.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Is it healthier for dogs to give blood? Healthier because
it's healthy for humans to give blood and then we
generate new blood? It is they say healthy to give
blood for humans. You're looking at me like you're not
sure if no, said.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
We're asking that.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Last time I tried to give blood at the Red Cross,
they turned me down. They pushed my tough of wear
right back to me and they said, where'd you get this?
Speaker 2 (31:26):
So well?
Speaker 4 (31:26):
They kept coming up six six six under.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
They said, we can't put this in anyone's body.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
No, listen, I want to say thank you for forty
five years of being there at people's darkest moments. But
it's not just about dark moments. You are also there
just for a preventive maintenance for your your.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Dog for lack of a better term.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Uh, your dog does need a blood panel at least annually.
Your cat does, and whatever petit might be. And I
want to say thank you for forty five years.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
That's that's insane.
Speaker 5 (31:57):
My main thing is client education. Yeah, I want to
make sure clients understand why we're giving them medication. That way,
they'll give it twice a day or whatever we ask
them to give it if they understand why we're giving
them this medication.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
So one thing I gotta think is say that it's
kind of comical, is I've noticed there's a lot of
dog medicine that is also human medicine because me and
my dog Lemmy aren't the same prescriptions.
Speaker 4 (32:27):
We wouldn't have anything Dwight stealing from Lemmy.
Speaker 5 (32:30):
Listen, listen, we have to use human medication.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Lemmy has a night and a day, Pilcotator, Pop Pop
has a Actually I got three, but I digress. Doctor
Kennedy Adam Eric, Well that's what he calls me.
Speaker 4 (32:45):
I understand, I understand it. Pop Pop. Thank you for
what you do.
Speaker 1 (32:49):
I appreciate you inviting us today on your big day
to hang out with you here in Oklonoa's. It's fantastic
to meet both of you again and and what you

Speaker 4 (33:14):
Yes, I might go over there after the show.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
Oh, just go over there and sit on this new
colturoy couch.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
It's the softest thing, the best thing I've ever said
on I'm not buying a couch online because you gotta
sit on the couch.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
Hey man, brother, Okay, and let me tell you this.
Once you sit on this corduroy.
Speaker 2 (33:31):
Couch and it's not like the stiff corduroy that we
had to wear. No, it's the softest material, the softest.
Am I lying?
Speaker 4 (33:39):
No, I'm swear to you.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
And it's cat friendly because we don't think the cats
can scratch it up because it's a different kind of design.
I laid in it when I said, no, I want it.
Can I get this in in whatever color we needed?
And they said, yep, yeah, get it.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
This is the couch, the chair, the sofa, set, whatever.
There's all over the internet that people are going crazy
about they have it. Not only they have they have
it all kinds of different styles, all kinds of different colors,
plus bedroom sets, kitchen sets, ditting room sets, washers, dryers.
Speaker 2 (34:04):
Televisions, you name it.
Speaker 3 (34:05):
If it's for your home to make you and your
family more comfortable, they got it.

BK Plumbing Supply, John Bergen.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
I want to say thank you John Bergen. He showed up.
Speaker 3 (34:27):
John Bergen showed up and donated so many toys, and
then we collected so many toys.
Speaker 2 (34:32):
I couldn't get him in the jeep.
Speaker 3 (34:33):
John Bergen took his truck and took him took all
the toys to b K Plumbing to store for us.
Speaker 2 (34:40):
Nice, God, bless you.
Speaker 4 (34:41):
He's a saint looking next to you.
Speaker 2 (34:45):
Yeah, I don't like standing next with joy John Bergen.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
But b K Plumming Supply he installed the Toto seven
uh nextus toilet in my home.
Speaker 4 (34:54):
It is the best thing I've done for my house
in a long time.
Speaker 2 (34:57):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (34:58):
The seat is heated, the water is heated. It's a bidet.
Speaker 1 (35:01):
System and you can choose different streams as you sit
on it because it has a remote control that's attached
to the side of the wall. Terry Miners has one.
Speaker 2 (35:10):
I have one.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
You've got to get one. And of course there's you know,
there's two dip. There's a girl button and a boy
button because we have different parts. I didn't know if
you know that, but the toilet knows that and it
is the best thing going. The seat comes up automatically
when you walk up on it. If you go to
the bathroom middle of the night, it senses that you're
walking in the room and it lights up just under
the toilet so you can see just enough without waking
(35:32):
you up or banging around in the bathroom. Get it done, man,
Go to BK Plumbing Supply. Asked for John John Bergen,
the owner. Back after this, Live on the road again
this morning at Jefferson Hospital here in Okalona on news
radio eight forty wh
Good morning, everybody, Live on the road again for the
Tony and Dwight Show, brought you by the Kentucky Office
of Highway Safety celebrating forty five years of the Jefferson
Annimal Hospital out here in Okanona. And just my first
impression of walking into the place i'd been. This is
nicer than some hospitals I have visited for humans.
Speaker 2 (00:21):
It is amazing, it really is.
Speaker 3 (00:22):
They have the best of the best when it comes
to physicians out here, and we are in the brand
new facility where you can actually blood if your cat's
over ten pounds, your dog's over fifty pounds. They can
actually save lives by giving blood out here. And we're
not talking about one life. We're talking about each donation
could be four to six lives. That they say they're
(00:43):
doing great work out here. And of course twenty four
hour service because dogs and cats and animals they don't
get injured nine to five.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
They trust me on that one.
Speaker 1 (00:53):
And we'll get to the supposedive shooting non shooting happening
at fairgrounds here in a second. But just to tell you,
there's a man that walked in this morning with me.
I held the door for him. He was bringing a
kiddie in and you could see his emotional state. And
she the kiddy had had got his leg caught in
between a little space and some outdoor furniture, and when
(01:14):
he was trying to get her out, it scared her
and she pulled up, broke her legs, broke the kitty's leg.
But you could see how emotionally destraught he was, and
he just wanted this the best care for this cat.
And that's what Jefferson Animal Hospital does. Look, you break
a leg, that they're going to fix you up, and
and uh, you know.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
They're prepared for anything out here. We're talking at accident, poisoning,
accidental leg break. Even the worst of the worst they're
prepared for out here, and that would.
Speaker 2 (01:41):
Be an Achilles tendon terror on an animal. Uh, that's,
as we know.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
The worst. We know.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
You're our dog expert, but you go even farther and
we'll talk more about that in the show of how
many surgeries you've had for your dog. So you're sort
of a pro when it comes to the anxiety, the
anxiety of putting dog under, the anxiety of the recovery.
I mean, I don't want to go too much into it.
But you guys moved your mattress down to your living room.
(02:08):
Oh yeah, and stayed with the dog in the living room.
Not because you're an overprotective crazy parent, but that's what
the dog needed at the time.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Well, it's because you loved the animal.
Speaker 3 (02:18):
We don't have a kid, So Lemmy is one hunder
the recipient of all of our love. Well, you get
five percent, and Austin from WAMC he gets another two percent,
But so ninety three percent of.
Speaker 2 (02:31):
Our love goes to Libby. Man. What a weekend though.
Speaker 3 (02:35):
First of all, I want to thank everybody that came
out to Barnol's Pizza on Friday and donated school supplies.
Plus what a great show we had, What a fun
show we had out there.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
And did the TBT tournament? Did that start this week?
Speaker 4 (02:49):
No, that's this Saturday? Okay, yeah, this this aurday at
Freedom Hall.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
We had coach Lieberman on last Friday to talk about
the Ville the lineup, and of course Louisville's hosting a
side and Kentucky's host a side at Memorial Coliseum.
Speaker 4 (03:02):
They're not playing in RUP.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
All right, let's get to the run from the Roses
basketball tournament that happens every year at the Fairgrounds. It's
the biggest women's basketball tournament in the country, and it
was interrupted yesterday through the thought of an active shooter.
There was a fire alarm polled or some situation like that.
(03:23):
But the first time I heard about this, Dwight, was
my friend was flying in from Boston and he texted
our whole text chain and said, there are one hundred
police cars, fire trucks, ems all over the fairgrounds. What's
going on? And then the news started to bleed out
about what was going on. They didn't know if something
happened at Kentucky Kingdom, and it bled over to the
(03:44):
basketball tournament. But if you're watching videos, Dwight, these girls
are scared, They're screaming, they're running.
Speaker 4 (03:50):
It's crazy.
Speaker 3 (03:51):
I have not seen the video yet. I do want
to see the video. What I did see and this
is how I found out. After church, we just came
home watching and starts growing Facebook and I see Sean
Wallace from Soul Circus and Katie Mack a great band
by the way, so Circus they were due to play
the water park out there, Hurricane Bay, and I see
(04:12):
Sean Wallace in a room jam packed with people, and
at the time he was under depression. Everybody was there
was an active shooter situation. So he posted a picture
and let everybody know what's going on. And he was
actually separated from his wife and his son. They were
on the other side of the park. Got in contact
(04:33):
with him. But the whole thing just made me sick
of my stuff, Like I sent you that screenshot and
then come to find out, we're not.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Sure what happened.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
Beyond the rights response by LMPD. They came ready for
trouble if he came to them and ready to protect
the public. Beyond all that, which is a great response.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Chief good.
Speaker 1 (04:56):
Yeah, but this is why we can't have nice things.
Speaker 4 (04:59):
No, I know, this is uh, this is the world
we live in.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
But this is why Louisville we you know, those those
families are gonna do what go back to their homes.
And by the way, is it a dozen different countries
or fifteen different countries that these teams come in from.
Oh yeah, they're just gonna go and what you're gonna
tend You're gonna tell all one hundred people today at
work what happened in Louisville, Kentucky, which will play into
the narrative of what we have nationally anyway.
Speaker 3 (05:24):
Well, okay, so we got that going on here, and
we'll come back to this because it needs more conversation.
But at the same time, the state of Kentucky, you
have a shooting in Lexington, Kentucky, and all that's going
on the same day.
Speaker 2 (05:36):
And I find out from that. I find out about
the the Lexington shooting from a national news.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yes, I don't find out about any of my friends
in Lexington. I pop up Facebook. And here's the part
that sucks when it comes to Kentucky, the more action.
If you ever wondered why something comes up on your
feed first, it's because it has more action than any
other post that might And that was the first thing
that came up with shooting in lexingdic.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Antucked ABC News to your point. Ran a story A
multi victim shooting in Lexington began around eleven thirty six
am yesterday when a gunman shot at Kentucky State trooper
near Bluegrass Airport, then carjacked a vehicle, sped six miles
to Richmond Road Baptist Church. There, the subject, whose name
has not yet been released, walked into the service of
(06:26):
roughly fifty people and open fire, killing two women aged
seventy two and thirty two and wounding two men. Police
quickly surrounded the church and during the standoff they exchanged
shots with it with the assailant and fatally wounded the attacker.
Lexington Police Chief Lawrence Weathers called the scene devastating.
Speaker 3 (06:48):
It's twenty twenty five and times sure are different because
for about ten years now, I've carried a gun to
church every time I go. I'd rather have and not
need than need not have. I've got a concealed carrie from.
Speaker 4 (07:05):
Ten years ago and I said, what's your problem?
Speaker 2 (07:07):
Right?
Speaker 4 (07:07):
And now I'm like, uh uh yeah, uh yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
If the church doesn't, I can't believe this, Like why
would he pick Blue h Richmond Road Baptist Church? Why
would he pick a church to go in there and
start shooting up? But obviously it was the end of
days for him or whatever the hell's in his head.
Uh but no, I And now, if if it's sad
that my wife has to walk her purst back to
the car at a high school football game, and it's
(07:31):
sad that we have to have arm guards at a
church during the service on Sunday, let's.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Get back to the louisvill Kentucky yesterday. The scare we
still know.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
I'm guessing that Metro say if LAPD, everybody's gonna be
unpacking this for days and then maybe we'll find out
exactly what happened.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Maybe we won't. But here's what I do know.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
Is because of situations like that, and I hate saying this,
but it's the truth, people gonna think twice season passes
for the water park at Kentucky king I don't know.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
I don't know if Kentucky Kingdom was part of it.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
No, they weren't. They were, That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (08:10):
But right, but because of happening in the fairgrounds, will
that affect them financially too?
Speaker 2 (08:14):
I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (08:15):
Uh, I don't.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
I don't know either, And is there a way? Look,
the most important thing we need to do. One thing
is the police response was warranted and delivered. So anybody
that's saying this was overkilled and you scared a bunch
of people, that is inaccurate, right, right, that is inaccurate.
The LMPD and the response team showed up and did
their job right. Second of all, we have to keep
(08:39):
this basketball tournament it is the second biggest revenue locally
behind the Derby. Okay, oh yeah, no, this thing is.
This thing is they have to stay for an expense
and it's weeks long. It's weeks long. So you have
again thousands of teams coming from all over the country
(09:01):
staying in hotels and eating for weeks. Okay, for weeks.
It's an extended stay. But yes, it is bigger than
louder than life.
Speaker 3 (09:09):
I'm hoping that it doesn't hurt Kentucky Kingdom. And if
you keep in mind, when you go to Kentucky Kingdom,
you're going through metal detectors. Yeah, there's wanding and there
is security there, sure so, uh.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
But not in the parking lot.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
No, not in the parking lot.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
But it will be interesting to find out exactly what
happened and if this is a because here's what listen,
let me be first, let me be crystal clear on this.
I have no idea what happened yesterday. Here is just
one of the things i'm hearing. One of the things
I'm hearing is some kids got together and they decided
(09:46):
to start yelling he's shooting, he's shooting, and.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Calls a widespread panic. That's just one of the theories
I'm hearing.
Speaker 4 (09:53):
How do you stop that, Well, you don't because kids
are always gonna be eating.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
Yes, again, my brain's racing, right, So I'm thinking, was
there shots in the parking lot? Because you know, with
back of Kentucky, back in that parking lot of the fairgrounds,
critin and drive exits right there so that you can
park there and pull into there. You go out there
and take a left and it's one block away to
the and then one block away the expressway, So you
could you know, that could have happened.
Speaker 4 (10:20):
Who knows.
Speaker 1 (10:20):
We might not ever find out exactly what caused all this,
but again it is it leads into the conversation of
how do we get these these events to Louisville and
how do we keep them? Because I've had friends that play,
had daughters play in this tournament.
Speaker 4 (10:33):
They're like, this is special, Like, you have no.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Idea because girls don't have tournaments like this, right, boys
have them all over the country, and these big name
coaches can come and watch them. This is an opportunity
for your daughter that's off the radar to be seen
by the Jeff Walls of the world and say that
girl can play let's offer her a scholarship.
Speaker 4 (10:53):
It's big. There's a big deal.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
There was one thing that came out of that yesterday,
And again I didn't spend monch trying to spend less
and less time on social media, zero time with the
news practically. But here's one good story that came out
of that. If there is one, it's typical Louisville. I
know a girl who took her child out there to
Kentucky Kingdom and she was exiting the parking lot getting
(11:18):
ready to enter Kentucky Kingdom at the time. That's when
some teenage girls came out screaming and she started to
run and she said to her and her daughter hopped
in a car with another family. Another family just said
get it in her car.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Gosh, well that's.
Speaker 3 (11:34):
Typical, I mean, you know what I mean that have
another family offer up, yes, here's safety, you and your
daughter get in the car. And that's what she did,
and then they drove off to the back of the
parking lot or whatever it might have been. But I
thought that was a little bit inspiring on such a
crappy situation.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
It's another stress for kids too, because you know, when
I was growing up, you know, you. And I don't
know if you did this with your family, but your conference,
your parents would ask you, you know, hey, if there's
a fire, here's how we get out of the house.
All fire drills, and you do and used to do
them at school. Remember fire drill school. You were hoping
the fire drill happened on the day we had a test,
and they would table the test to the next day.
(12:12):
You would still not study, but either what I neither
what I. But you did fire drills now and then.
The only other thing we did was okay, okay, yeah, okay,
all right, here's.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Here's a there's another drill that we had to do.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
Okay, I know what you're doing.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
There in case of a nuclear attack, exactly the case
of a nuclear attack.
Speaker 2 (12:32):
We had to go in the hallway and put a
book over our head.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:37):
Comedians said they used to do that so they can
just scoop us up easier. After But my sixth grade,
my sixth grade seat, because you know, they always moved
me next to the teacher. Almost immediately they're like, miss Venetti,
I don't think you're sitting in the back.
Speaker 4 (12:51):
Sit here.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
So the poster in front of me was a blast
zone radius nuclear because Fort Knox was the secondary UH
strike target, so they had circles out of Fort Knox
of instantly dead, die of burns, and then die of cancer.
Speaker 4 (13:11):
That's I stared at that.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I will never forget staring at that poster my entire
sixth grade and going And that's the stuff that.
Speaker 4 (13:19):
We lived with. Right, there's different fears now.
Speaker 1 (13:21):
But now we have active shooter drills in schools, which
must be what we have to do that, But think
about the mindset. They're supposed to be here just to
learn enough so they can move on with life, and
they have to have just in case someone comes in
and start shooting the place up. Here's what you do.
That stuff stays with kids, you know, it's it's it's unbelievable.
(13:43):
And I have no answer by the way I have.
You know, the smartest people in the world try to
come up with answers for all this. You know, I'm
like everybody else.
Speaker 3 (13:49):
Well is this story unpacked? Well, uh, we'll keep you
informed as we get informed. But it is forty five
years baby Jeffers an animal hospital and that's what we're
out here. So Bradon plus the brand new Blood Bank
just the best of the best out here. I'm gonna
have a couple of special guests on the way and
it's more fun.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
But this place, as I walked through, I thought it
was just the front part, right, So that he goes, no,
I'm going to walk you through and we'll do it
to or later.
Speaker 4 (14:17):
I was like, great. We walk through and it is
just surgery room.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
It looks like a human hospital, actually cleaner than a
human hospital. And people that have pets know, and especially
folks like Dwight and Susan that you know this is
you know, the animals is one of the most important
things in their lives, yep. And you want people that
know what they're doing in charge of them at their
worst times.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
Right.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
So they're celebrating forty five years of twenty four to
seven emergency treatment at Jefferson Animal Hospital. W'ere in Okalona.
Do I exactly where are we.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Come across from the Jefferson Mall? Yes, where we are
still open? Correct, it's somewhat open. If they don't call
it Jefferson Mall, ay or they call it something else.
Jeffers said another call like Jefferson.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
Okay, I don't know, Yeah, I used to come out
here and and that was the only time in my
life I ever thought about getting a you know, a
spray airbrush T shirt.
Speaker 3 (15:10):
Yeah, you gotta get an airbrush not the license plate
to a heart that says.
Speaker 4 (15:15):
You know, Cindy and Jimmy love Forever.
Speaker 1 (15:19):
Our T shirt says it. And then we got a
matching uh license plate that goes on the front.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
It's got number four dash ever.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
And then and then Cindy ended up going, you know,
she was crying when they broke up, turning the screwdriver
to get the license plate off, going that's Jimmy is horrible.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
You know.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
The only thing that Jefferson Maw didn't have that should
have had. It's the guy making caricatures.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Have you?
Speaker 1 (15:42):
Yeah, isn't the characters? Isn't that one was on the.
Speaker 2 (15:46):
Airbrush T shirt somewhat? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Did you get an AIRBRUSHR side?
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Did?
Speaker 4 (15:50):
It was on your airbrush T shirt? If you can
remember through.
Speaker 2 (15:53):
The bong water. Dwight loves Cindy with an eye.
Speaker 1 (15:56):
Dwight love Cindy with an eye.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
That's right, that's how you can tell South You got

Speaker 2 (18:37):
Yes, I want to talk in. Let's bring in my
buddy Adam ericson a man with a vision.
Speaker 3 (18:43):
No kidding. This has been a vision what we're standing
in right now. This has been a vision of yours.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
For quite some time, and now it's become a reality.
Speaker 3 (18:53):
Scott felt pretty good because this looks fantastic here. We're
gonna talk to doctor Kennedy here in just a second
as well, but talk about that this was a vision
that you all had and now it's reality.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
How does that feel to walk in and see it
complete like this? Fantastic?
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Well, that's not a good are we go?
Speaker 2 (19:11):
There? We go, Let's make sure it's up. Hang on,
let's get doctor here. We go. Okay, and that's doctor
Kitty right there.
Speaker 5 (19:17):
I hey, doctor Kitty, trying to get everything ready for
the Lieutenant Governor to come here. Yes, we do an
amazing job here because I've got amazing doctors and amazing
staff who treat all of these pets like their own,
and they do a really good job. They've got I
don't know if you noticed all the cars in the
side here. We didn't make any appointments this morning because
this was going on, and they're busy as can be
(19:40):
with walk ins because what happened way back We opened
out of a little three bedroom house in seventy eight.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
Wow, and then in.
Speaker 5 (19:49):
Nineteen eighty we decided to open twenty four hours. Louisville
is truly a twenty four hour town. We've got ups,
you know, they have shifts to get off at three o'clock,
at ten o'clock and at seven am.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
Well, let's go back there.
Speaker 3 (20:02):
I'll put a panage just for one second, not to
interrupt you, but let's talk about it.
Speaker 2 (20:05):
We also had International.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Harvester, all of these other I mean that's what it was.
Speaker 5 (20:11):
Had shifts.
Speaker 2 (20:11):
Yeah, I had shifts. Do people call you crazy when
you say you want to go twenty four hour?
Speaker 4 (20:15):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (20:16):
Well they didn't believe it. Yeah, nobody in the community
believed it because it was so unique and it was
so unusual, and because we were open twenty four hours,
nobody was going to come in the middle of the
night because they didn't really understand that we were here.
So we would do all our routine Spain neuter dental
stuff in the middle of the night, and then we'd
see clients during the day during normal hours, and well.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
The caring for animals has changed.
Speaker 1 (20:41):
I think the mindset of pets, yes, has changed since
seventy eight, dramatically.
Speaker 5 (20:47):
It's a human animal bond.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Yes, correct.
Speaker 1 (20:50):
And it's not just worked when you did it. It's
gone like a skyrocket up since then.
Speaker 5 (20:56):
Yes, And we're very attached to their pets.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (21:01):
And to your point, this morning, you you didn't make
any appointments, but I saw I opened the door for
somebody at nine forty five or forty five this morning
and he had tears in his eyes. And because his pet,
I don't want to name the specifics, but I mean
his pet had a broken leg and he was he
was emotional trying.
Speaker 4 (21:19):
To tell me the story about it.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Yes, and that's what that's the stuff you do with
every day. And that's and to navigate that is something
you do well.
Speaker 2 (21:28):
And here's what I will say.
Speaker 3 (21:29):
I have been on the other side of that counter
on two of the darkest times of my life here
at Jefferson Hama Hospital. And what I'll say is, you're almost,
if not inconsolable while this is going on. Yes, I
had one dog that was hit by a car, another
one that was just a freak injury, and I got
to say the way the staff understood how much that
(21:50):
dog meant to me was unbelievable. And it shows through
the compassion and the kindness because you all have to
deal with this. It's a tough load to.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Carry because you know, the Monday doctor Kennedy. But for
them it's important.
Speaker 5 (22:06):
Yes, yeah, well we know that. And we have people
that have been coming to us for over forty years
with different pets. You know, they'll have one pet and
then he gets old and they lose them, and then
they bring their next one. So yeah, we have great
friends among our clients. I have a number of clients
(22:27):
that I would go to their parents' funerals and just
you develop a bond with these special clients.
Speaker 3 (22:34):
Let's talk about one of your very special clients. Here's
one thing I will say about Joseph Animal Hospital. Every
patient is the most important patient. It really, at least
that's how it felt with me and my experience here.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
But one really took over international and that was Ethan,
Ethan Almighty.
Speaker 3 (22:55):
As a matter of fact, Ethan came here, they thought,
oh yes, they thought they thought that Ethan was dead,
and only when they got him on the table they realized,
wait a minute, there's breadth here.
Speaker 5 (23:05):
He was found in the parking lot at the Humane Society,
and his he was what we call kokesik. He was
skin and bones and he was barely breathing, and they
brought him here first. And then the Humane Society does
a tremendous job marketing their services, and they got that
out on the airways and we were getting they were
(23:27):
getting calls from Australia and France and just all over
the world. And doctor Buley put, the Maine Society director,
called me and asked if I could handle this, and
I said, no, we can't handle the phone the phone lines,
because we were busy on our own stuff too. So
basically we kept Ethan several days. He couldn't stand at all.
(23:48):
He could he could barely lift his head. Some of
the staff actually got in the cage with him and
held him, and we finally got him where he could
we could hold him up, and then he was knuckling
on his feet, and then we got him finally a
couple days later where he could put his feet down
and barely take a few steps. And then we finally
got him strong enough and the Humane Society it took
(24:09):
over from there and he went back over there.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
If there were ever a case where a physician could
walk in and say it's a lost cause, call it.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
In my opinion, that would have been one. But you
all said no.
Speaker 3 (24:18):
And look today that dog has helped him to be
a champion for so many.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
I want to also clear something up.
Speaker 3 (24:24):
We're talking by the way, doctor Kennedy and Adam Errington
is our guest right now where Jefferson Animal Hospital forty.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Five years they've been taking care of us. I want
to make someth the crystal clear.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
We've talked about the emergency coming out at two o'clock
in the morning because your dog might have ingested whatever.
It might have been, broken a leg or even worse.
But that's not the only reason you're open twenty four
hours a day.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
You're open to be convenient for.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
Those who might work third shift, first shift, second shift.
You can actually make appointments to get your shots, to
get your regular check up, to get de warned, whatever
it might be.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
It doesn't have to be an emergency, correct, right.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
He's just like a human emergency.
Speaker 3 (25:01):
But I'm just saying you don't have to be an emergency.
You could just be a doctor's checkup or whatever it
might be.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
We provide a tremendous service to the community. And we
know that we don't do that many appointments in the
middle of the night anymore. But we have clients who've
been coming here a long time. No they can call
and get their pets in and for vaccines or whatever
they need.
Speaker 4 (25:19):
Doctor Kennedy, talk to about that person to your.
Speaker 2 (25:21):
Right at good morning, guys, what.
Speaker 4 (25:23):
Do you think of this guy? What do you think
of this guy?
Speaker 6 (25:25):
We're so happy you guys are here, and this is
a really big day. This is a culmination of a
lot of things.
Speaker 3 (25:31):
We didn't want to miss it. Listen, we found out
what was going on. We did absolutely did not want
to miss us forty five years.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
It's a big deal. But let's talk about where we're
at now.
Speaker 3 (25:38):
This was a vision, a vision that you all made
reality and it's quite beautiful.
Speaker 2 (25:45):
And I guess what was painstaking?
Speaker 3 (25:46):
How long did all this take from you know, here's
what we want to do and we want to expand
by seven thousand feet square feet?
Speaker 2 (25:54):
How long from having the idea to making this reality?
How long that take? Sure?
Speaker 6 (25:59):
Well, we were very lucky to be able to do
this and this started from a need for space. We
were at the gills, as I said, right, yeah, for
so many years, and we needed space because of the
growing number of patients and cases we were seeing. We
were so lucky to do this project and adding seven
thousand square feet was just has been really great for us.
We had a lot of support from the city and
(26:20):
it's going to allow us to see more cases. We
will accordingly hire more staff and basically be able to
save more lives with this great new facility at over
fifteen thousand square feet.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Let's talk about the physicians and how well that you
treat because I find this. When I found out what
you all do with these physicians, it just set me
on top.
Speaker 4 (26:42):
Of the world. Our veterinarians.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
Yeah, the veterinarians. You actually have homes for them.
Speaker 5 (26:50):
Yes, we have staff. Some of our overnight doctors live
a good distance away, you know, three to four hours away,
so we have housing back here with ms where they
can sleep right here and so they don't have to
come in they're not on call, but they don't have
to drive home after every shift.
Speaker 2 (27:09):
It's really quite incredible.
Speaker 3 (27:11):
And forty five years you've been in business and you
keep growing. I want to talk about the blood bank,
because it never dawned on me.
Speaker 2 (27:19):
Yes, I'm not a veterinarian.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
Yes, of course you need blood when you have surgeries.
And by the way, if your cat's ten pounds or older,
if your dogs fifty pounds are heavier, they can give blood.
I find it fascinating that each blood donation can save
four to six lives. Talk about how important it is
(27:42):
to get these donors, and talk about, by the way,
talk about the rewards not only for just saving lives,
but the reward for the owner and the pet as well,
because there's benefits.
Speaker 5 (27:53):
Yes, that you get all your vaccines, you're required vaccines,
no charge. Would they do a complete blood pro filed
every year, and which is important. Yes, you do these
just like your doctor does blood panels for you, right,
you know the white cell count and your CBC and
your chemistries for your kidney and liver. You can find
diseases early. But we do a very broad work up
(28:16):
before we accept these dogs as blood donors. Sure, and
it's pretty extensive.
Speaker 4 (28:22):
How many different are the other blood types like humans have?
Speaker 3 (28:26):
And there's like a ton, right, I mean, is it
something ridiculous like four hundred and twelve I'm exaggerating, but no, there's.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
And can you cross.
Speaker 1 (28:37):
I know humans have one whatever negative that they can
use on a patient that's been shot and come in.
So there are different types of blood, right.
Speaker 5 (28:44):
Cats have different types and dogs have different types of
You can't give dog blood shats and cats okay blood.
I was gonna look and have Sarah come in and
speak to that. I'm not that good at talking about
all the different blood types.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
That's okay, No, that's that's okay because everyone else is
a novice too. But I until you all talked about
until Dwight started talking about it, I'd never heard of
that before in my life. It's amazing. How we need
to get that message out.
Speaker 5 (29:11):
Yeah, we definitely need and they do have a lot
of perks.
Speaker 3 (29:14):
Can I say something about the both of you? It's
it's obviously it's obviously you love what you do. Yes,
I mean it's quite absolutely.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
But it shows because you could tell what some people
just show.
Speaker 3 (29:28):
Up to do it and oh we got a blood page.
Speaker 1 (29:33):
Does does the dogg or cat get a lollipop like
a little when they give blood?
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Whatever?
Speaker 3 (29:41):
They get a cookie, they get a I share how
you do it?
Speaker 2 (29:46):
So how many different types of dog blood. Dog blood is.
Speaker 7 (29:50):
There right now? There's probably about eleven recognized types. There's
a couple more, wow Europe that we don't really recognize,
and they're discovering more every day. But there's about eleven.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Look at the smile that you can tell you love
what you do too. How long have you been doing.
Speaker 7 (30:04):
This the blood bank for eleven years now?
Speaker 2 (30:09):
But how long have you been in this field.
Speaker 7 (30:10):
Twenty five years?
Speaker 2 (30:11):
Wow? Yeah, it shows on your face. That's one thing
about it. I will say that what you'll see it
on the employee's faces down here, that it's not a job,
it's a passion. It is.
Speaker 1 (30:21):
So if let me donated blood and we put it
into another dog, with that dog woulcome angrier? Okay's glove
list or the only reason starts to speak German.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Only reason my dog bit you because he is a
tremendous judge of characters, no choice.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
It has nothing to do with his blood. He's just extually,
he's just an excellent judge of carre. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:41):
But how many people, how many dogs and catch are
you getting in now to donate blood?
Speaker 4 (30:46):
A pretty good clip or.
Speaker 7 (30:47):
We have about seventy five dogs in the program and
probably about forty cats.
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Oh wow, And how long does it take between the
times you give?
Speaker 4 (30:55):
So every couple of months.
Speaker 7 (30:56):
No sooner than six weeks. So six weeks is the safe.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
YEA about to say this, right, it's about the same.
Speaker 7 (31:02):
Every thing is pretty much the same.
Speaker 1 (31:03):
Is it healthier for dogs to give blood? Healthier because
it's healthy for humans to give blood and then we
generate new blood? It is they say healthy to give
blood for humans. You're looking at me like you're not
sure if no, said.
Speaker 2 (31:17):
We're asking that.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
Last time I tried to give blood at the Red Cross,
they turned me down. They pushed my tough of wear
right back to me and they said, where'd you get this?
Speaker 2 (31:26):
So well?
Speaker 4 (31:26):
They kept coming up six six six under.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
They said, we can't put this in anyone's body.
Speaker 3 (31:32):
No, listen, I want to say thank you for forty
five years of being there at people's darkest moments. But
it's not just about dark moments. You are also there
just for a preventive maintenance for your your.
Speaker 2 (31:43):
Dog for lack of a better term.
Speaker 3 (31:46):
Uh, your dog does need a blood panel at least annually.
Your cat does, and whatever petit might be. And I
want to say thank you for forty five years.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
That's that's insane.
Speaker 5 (31:57):
My main thing is client education. Yeah, I want to
make sure clients understand why we're giving them medication. That way,
they'll give it twice a day or whatever we ask
them to give it if they understand why we're giving
them this medication.
Speaker 3 (32:12):
So one thing I gotta think is say that it's
kind of comical, is I've noticed there's a lot of
dog medicine that is also human medicine because me and
my dog Lemmy aren't the same prescriptions.
Speaker 4 (32:27):
We wouldn't have anything Dwight stealing from Lemmy.
Speaker 5 (32:30):
Listen, listen, we have to use human medication.
Speaker 3 (32:34):
Lemmy has a night and a day, Pilcotator, Pop Pop
has a Actually I got three, but I digress. Doctor
Kennedy Adam Eric, Well that's what he calls me.

Am I lying?
Speaker 4 (33:39):
No, I'm swear to you.
Speaker 1 (33:40):
And it's cat friendly because we don't think the cats
can scratch it up because it's a different kind of design.
I laid in it when I said, no, I want it.
Can I get this in in whatever color we needed?
And they said, yep, yeah, get it.
Speaker 3 (33:50):
This is the couch, the chair, the sofa, set, whatever.

it all kinds of different styles, all kinds of different colors,
