À propos de cette écoute

Two crises. One overlooked solution.
60 million Americans struggle with mental health. 340,000 rescue dogs are euthanized every year. Both systems are overburdened, underperforming, and wildly expensive.


What if dogs—trained, matched, and integrated through Social Prescriptions—could help solve both?


The TH-CA Podcast explores how trained rescue dogs are a cost-effective, scalable, organic mental health intervention hiding in plain sight. These dogs aren’t just pets—they’re untapped resources for emotional support, social connection, and daily structure.


While the U.S. spends $282B/year on mental illness and $2B/year on shelter systems, TH-CA offers a third path:

✅ A natural, drug-free solution

✅ A second chance for rescue dogs

✅ A new model for care that’s community-backed and tech-powered


Through AI-driven matchmaking, targeted training, and real human-canine connection, we’re building a system that curbs crisis—not just treats symptoms.


Plus, go behind the scenes in “Real Life Business” segments to hear what it really takes to build a hybrid nonprofit-for-profit org from scratch—and disrupt two major industries along the way.


If you care about mental health, rescue dogs, or bold new ideas in public health, this podcast is for you.


Let’s flip the script. Let’s turn America’s Human-PILL Bond into a Human-CANINE Bond. 🐾

      Barb De Groodt: Global Dog Behavior Expert on the Reality of Canine Capabilities
      Jun 5 2025

      In this episode of The Human-Canine Alliance podcast, host Stacie interviews Barb De Groodt, owner of From the Heart Dog Training, discussing her extensive experience and unique approach to dog training. The conversation covers Barb's background, her training methodologies, and the importance of respecting the dog's personality and needs. They explore the differences between emotional support dogs, therapy dogs, and service dogs, and discuss the potential role of AI in matching dogs with humans to enhance their lifestyles. Barb shares personal anecdotes and emphasizes the value of patience and intention in effective dog training.

      About Barb:
      Barb De Groodt has spent over 60 years working with animals around the globe—from training German shorthaired pointers in her father’s kennel at age 8 to mentoring modern trainers across India, Spain, Thailand, and beyond. A founding member of the Association of Pet Dog Trainers, Hall of Fame inductee with the International Association of Canine Professionals, and former Trainer of the Year at Westminster, Barb continues to educate, present, and innovate within the field. Her deep respect for animals and commitment to individualized training make her a true pioneer in the evolution of the human-canine bond.

    • The Missing Link: Why Social Prescriptions Deserve a Place in Economic Strategy

      The Missing Link: Why Social Prescriptions Deserve a Place in Economic Strategy
      May 20 2025

      Despite mounting clinical evidence for art therapy, nature therapy, music therapy, and dance therapy, Social Prescriptions remain on the periphery of U.S. healthcare. But the issue may not be proof of concept — it’s proof of value.

      This episode argues that Social Prescriptions should be seen not just as wellness tools, but as strategic levers for economic development, long-term cost savings, and workforce readiness. If we want to see Social Prescriptions scale in the U.S., we need to speak the language of systems, incentives, and return on investment.

      We unpack the Federal Reserve’s own commentary on “missing markets” — the gap between high-impact community solutions and the formal infrastructure needed to scale them — and show how Social Prescriptions fit squarely in that space.

      From Park Rx programs that drive traffic and funding to public lands, to creative therapies that improve mental health while stimulating local economies, Social Prescriptions are already creating real impact. But until that impact is economically legible, it will likely remain unrecognized — and less than scalable.
