To celebrate the 200th episode of the Overdog Podcast, Fern is joined by Patrick and Dana Lyons for a quick recap of the recent Overdog Business Retreat—an event designed to help pet business owners reset, recharge, and rethink what’s possible. But the real meat of this milestone episode is all about mindset, and specifically, the beliefs that are quietly holding you back.

If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking “I can’t,” “That won’t work,” or “I’m not ready,” this episode is your wake-up call. Fern and his guests dive deep into the sneaky nature of limiting beliefs—how they form, why they’re so convincing, and the steps you can take to break through them. This isn’t fluff. It’s the mindset shift that could change everything for your business.

If you think enrichment is just about tossing a few toys into the play area, think again. In this episode, Fern sits down with Kim Buchanan of Fetch Dog Resort to dig into the creative and wildly effective world of sense-based enrichment. Kim shares how she transformed her traditional daycare setup into a fully immersive experience that’s as rewarding for the dogs as it is for her staff—and yes, it’s been a game-changer for her bottom line too. From themed sensory rooms to pricing strategies that actually work, she’s reinventing the daycare model in the coolest ways.

You’ll hear how Fetch Dog Resort went from "just another daycare" to a place dogs literally line up to get into. Kim breaks down exactly how she built this program, got staff and clients on board, and turned enrichment into a major revenue stream. Whether you’re just curious or ready to overhaul your entire business, this episode is packed with inspiration and real-world takeaways. Trust us—you’ll want to hear what these dogs are doing every morning before daycare even starts.
