Welcome to the Soul Touched by Dogs
Podcast, the show for dog lovers who

00:00:06.340 --> 00:00:12.000
see dogs not as toys or tools, but
wise souls worth our respect and care.

00:00:12.580 --> 00:00:14.559
I'm an Herrmann, and I'm your host.

00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:20.560
I talk to poor some humans, people who
do great work for dogs and their people.

00:00:21.099 --> 00:00:23.360
So come and join us for
today's conversation.

00:00:25.654 --> 00:00:27.154
Anke: Hello and welcome, Tim.

00:00:27.304 --> 00:00:28.604
I'm excited to have you here.

00:00:29.264 --> 00:00:30.554
Tim: Yeah, I'm excited to be here.

00:00:30.574 --> 00:00:33.774
Thanks for letting me share a
little bit about us on, um, on

00:00:33.774 --> 00:00:34.994
your, in front of your audience.

00:00:34.994 --> 00:00:35.494
I appreciate

00:00:35.494 --> 00:00:35.654
Anke: it.

00:00:36.624 --> 00:00:37.154
Fabulous.

00:00:37.384 --> 00:00:40.904
Well, okay, let's just start out with
the question I always ask first, like

00:00:40.924 --> 00:00:44.584
where in the lovely world are you
and, you know, what's your business?

00:00:45.004 --> 00:00:45.924
What's your business with

00:00:45.924 --> 00:00:46.404
Tim: dogs?

00:00:47.299 --> 00:00:52.229
Right, so I probably have the most boring
answer to the where in the world to a

00:00:52.229 --> 00:00:56.109
lot of people because we're in Iowa,
which I love Iowa, but we are right in

00:00:56.109 --> 00:00:58.899
the middle of the heartland of the U.

00:00:58.899 --> 00:00:59.359
S.

00:00:59.799 --> 00:01:04.429
in Iowa, and most of our team and
everything is around core group

00:01:04.429 --> 00:01:08.069
of the team from our company
WinPro is in Iowa as well.

00:01:08.319 --> 00:01:09.349
Different parts of it.

00:01:09.849 --> 00:01:15.649
Um, and so to answer your question,
like, how did, how did WinPro

00:01:15.669 --> 00:01:18.649
kind of like get started or?

00:01:19.129 --> 00:01:20.089
Do you want to just,

00:01:20.139 --> 00:01:22.949
Anke: I mean, let's assume people
know nothing, you know, so there's

00:01:22.979 --> 00:01:24.719
Tim, we don't know anything about him.

00:01:25.939 --> 00:01:31.099
WinPro, so you just thrown it in the air
now, you know, let us know what that is.

00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:35.339
And, um, you know, who it's for
and how the hell it came about.

00:01:36.379 --> 00:01:37.319
Tim: Yeah, perfect.

00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:38.169
So.

00:01:38.644 --> 00:01:45.224
Winpro, interestingly enough, is the only
supplement that is in the market available

00:01:45.234 --> 00:01:51.434
for dogs right now, soon to be cats, that
is made with the core science of plasma.

00:01:51.914 --> 00:01:56.424
And the reason we think that that's
amazing is because we've seen

00:01:56.424 --> 00:02:00.224
the impacts of plasma and all the
wonderful things that plasma as like

00:02:00.224 --> 00:02:02.279
a whole body ingredient really does.

00:02:02.589 --> 00:02:05.249
has to offer and benefits for animals.

00:02:05.609 --> 00:02:10.829
Um, and funny enough, how it came about,
so we're in Iowa, and I actually married

00:02:10.829 --> 00:02:15.679
a hog farmer's daughter, so I'm pretty
acute to, you know, how this works.

00:02:16.079 --> 00:02:21.139
Um, but Iowa State University, back in the
80s, they were having a terrible mortality

00:02:21.139 --> 00:02:23.349
rate when they were weaning piglets.

00:02:24.114 --> 00:02:28.074
And so this is, I think,
like 1983, so 40 years ago.

00:02:28.504 --> 00:02:30.344
And they tried a lot of different things.

00:02:30.344 --> 00:02:34.664
They tried environmental factors,
nutrition, um, and nothing seemed to work.

00:02:34.684 --> 00:02:38.804
And so what they ended up, they were
working on this spray dried plasma

00:02:38.934 --> 00:02:44.034
matrix, and they ended up introducing
that into the, um, starter diet.

00:02:44.644 --> 00:02:49.614
And that had a dramatic, um, impact
on reducing the mortality rate.

00:02:50.119 --> 00:02:54.899
And what they found out was the
stress of that situation was

00:02:54.899 --> 00:02:58.839
causing so much inflammation that
that was actually the problem.

00:02:59.329 --> 00:03:04.849
And so that science, um, was
remarkable and at the time, right?

00:03:04.899 --> 00:03:08.619
And so it's, it's really
been around in every species.

00:03:08.629 --> 00:03:13.299
So it started in, um, for pigs and
then it was in cattle and then it

00:03:13.299 --> 00:03:17.309
was in all the, all the livestock and
feeding animals, you know, poultry.

00:03:17.834 --> 00:03:24.194
Goats, lambs, and then it made its
way into performance racehorses.

00:03:25.154 --> 00:03:28.004
And the interesting thing about
the performance racehorses is

00:03:28.024 --> 00:03:32.264
that's where our founder, Bill
Bernardo, was introduced to it.

00:03:32.324 --> 00:03:37.534
He was tasked with, um, developing
a supplement line for performance

00:03:37.534 --> 00:03:41.094
racehorses, and I don't know if you
know this Anke, but the performance

00:03:41.124 --> 00:03:43.644
racehorses are super stressed.

00:03:43.954 --> 00:03:47.644
Like that's, that's like a, like one
of the most stressed animals out there.

00:03:48.104 --> 00:03:52.364
And so they have this thing that
it's called, um, bleed, bleeders, and

00:03:52.364 --> 00:03:56.264
that's when they just stress too much
inflammation, they bleed out their nose.

00:03:56.664 --> 00:03:59.264
And so they were looking for
a product that could, um, you

00:03:59.264 --> 00:04:03.174
know, just really benefit the
performance of the, um, the animal.

00:04:03.684 --> 00:04:09.454
And so what, um, Bill was tasked
at was developing that product.

00:04:09.454 --> 00:04:13.544
Well, they did that and they
had remarkable results, but the

00:04:13.544 --> 00:04:18.164
problem was, is Bill was really
not very comfortable around horses.

00:04:18.509 --> 00:04:20.909
And yet he had five dogs at home.

00:04:21.709 --> 00:04:24.069
Crazy dog guy, you know, crazy.

00:04:24.069 --> 00:04:27.629
And it takes a crazy dog person to
start a company like this, right?

00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:35.729
Um, and so he said, what if the science
can translate into canine world?

00:04:36.059 --> 00:04:37.359
And there was no reason why it shouldn't.

00:04:37.359 --> 00:04:39.129
It had been through so many other species.

00:04:39.429 --> 00:04:43.019
So he really just took the leap of
faith, took that same science and

00:04:43.019 --> 00:04:48.799
developed Winfro with the, the core
motto is like, plasma is the secret.

00:04:49.389 --> 00:04:52.979
Let's put that into a product
that can really benefit dogs.

00:04:54.144 --> 00:04:54.754
Anke: It's fascinating.

00:04:55.334 --> 00:05:01.394
Um, I mean, one thing I'm curious
about, what sort of the range of

00:05:01.434 --> 00:05:04.744
application, like what, you know,
the inflammation, you mentioned that,

00:05:05.064 --> 00:05:09.934
you know, so in what circumstances
would somebody say, well, I need this?

00:05:10.334 --> 00:05:15.204
And the other thing I'm curious about
is like, why isn't everyone using

00:05:15.204 --> 00:05:15.414
Tim: that?

00:05:17.174 --> 00:05:17.614
Right.

00:05:18.194 --> 00:05:19.294
Well, everyone is.

00:05:19.824 --> 00:05:21.654
It's just not in dogs.

00:05:21.654 --> 00:05:25.314
Like they, you know, in every
other type of, you know, medical

00:05:25.314 --> 00:05:27.024
application you think about.

00:05:27.474 --> 00:05:29.574
Um, did you ever watch a show Mash?

00:05:29.604 --> 00:05:30.294
Maybe?

00:05:30.384 --> 00:05:32.059
You know, I do like, yeah, vaguely.

00:05:32.059 --> 00:05:32.299
Yeah.

00:05:32.934 --> 00:05:37.464
. I mean, the first thing that they bring a
wounded, um, soldier in, the first thing

00:05:37.464 --> 00:05:39.624
they do is hook 'em up to a bag of plasma.

00:05:40.214 --> 00:05:43.964
Um, and we've done injections
with plasma in the human, you

00:05:43.964 --> 00:05:46.124
know, in the human medical field.

00:05:47.269 --> 00:05:53.399
And the reason nobody else
is doing it, I don't know.

00:05:53.459 --> 00:05:56.579
There are a few people that
are starting to, it's starting

00:05:56.579 --> 00:05:57.909
to really pick up traction.

00:05:57.919 --> 00:05:58.959
We were the first.

00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:04.224
I think part of that is It's
easier to sell a product that

00:06:05.224 --> 00:06:06.984
you don't have to educate around.

00:06:07.004 --> 00:06:10.684
You know, you don't have to
have real science around.

00:06:11.034 --> 00:06:16.724
And, you know, plasma could be something
that is polarizing to a certain audience.

00:06:16.994 --> 00:06:19.694
It can also be something that draws
them in because they know that, wow,

00:06:19.694 --> 00:06:24.944
there's real science behind and real
value in what the proteins in plasma do.

00:06:25.284 --> 00:06:25.934
have to offer.

00:06:25.934 --> 00:06:29.644
So I think it's, I think we were just
early on it to be honest with you.

00:06:29.884 --> 00:06:33.764
And now some pet food companies
are doing, adding a small amount.

00:06:34.154 --> 00:06:38.924
Um, and we're still really the only
ones that are doing, um, orally fed

00:06:38.924 --> 00:06:40.944
plasma in the form of a soft chew.

00:06:40.994 --> 00:06:43.919
And there's definitely more coming,
um, because the science is changing.

00:06:44.049 --> 00:06:46.829
is starting to prove out
and we've been educating the

00:06:46.829 --> 00:06:50.759
world about it for since 2017.

00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:52.379
So they're coming,
they're coming for sure.

00:06:52.879 --> 00:06:55.689
But it's really challenging
to work with because it's not

00:06:55.689 --> 00:06:56.639
like any other ingredient.

00:06:56.669 --> 00:06:58.329
It's a very active ingredient.

00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.669
Anke: I mean, could this, I
mean, is there like a limit?

00:07:03.729 --> 00:07:05.719
I mean, could this even be produced?

00:07:05.939 --> 00:07:09.909
Like to say, well, that it's the
first thing people go to, you

00:07:09.909 --> 00:07:14.404
know, say if, if You know, any dog
anywhere has like joint problems.

00:07:14.434 --> 00:07:19.794
If everybody goes, oh my god, I need
plasma, like Would we run out of

00:07:19.794 --> 00:07:21.234
it or like is there a limit to it

00:07:21.244 --> 00:07:21.504
Tim: or?

00:07:22.834 --> 00:07:24.064
That's a really good question.

00:07:24.064 --> 00:07:28.784
I at this point they're really um,
there isn't there isn't a limit but

00:07:28.784 --> 00:07:32.404
with anything if you you bring enough
people into the market it really

00:07:32.414 --> 00:07:38.994
probably changes the way it's Um, how
you, how you get the plasma, you know,

00:07:39.004 --> 00:07:40.894
I, that, that's a really good question.

00:07:40.904 --> 00:07:44.114
I'm sure that that would be a
challenge at some, at some point.

00:07:44.414 --> 00:07:45.054
It's like, you know,

00:07:45.054 --> 00:07:47.524
Anke: like a little bit like with
electric cars, like it's kind of cute

00:07:47.534 --> 00:07:52.484
when there's a few, but if you imagine
every single car on earth would be run

00:07:52.494 --> 00:07:55.761
electric, like that would be probably
a bigger problem than we have now.

00:07:55.761 --> 00:07:55.994
Right.

00:07:55.994 --> 00:07:58.154
It's like, that's sort of
where my mind went with that.

00:07:58.954 --> 00:07:59.484
Tim: Yeah.

00:07:59.894 --> 00:08:03.034
Um, but it's really like,
we're starting to get a lot of.

00:08:04.619 --> 00:08:10.589
Veterinarians really pushing like,
hey, this is an alternative option

00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:15.989
there to what our current treatment
plan is, if it's not working, and

00:08:15.989 --> 00:08:20.079
we've had a lot of a lot of success
being drawn into vet offices.

00:08:20.814 --> 00:08:23.554
with a product because they
really get the science.

00:08:23.574 --> 00:08:27.974
They just, they just haven't been
exposed to the orally fed plasma.

00:08:27.974 --> 00:08:29.534
It's always been an injection.

00:08:29.944 --> 00:08:33.534
Um, and we're the first ones to
develop that, you know, in a soft

00:08:33.534 --> 00:08:34.864
tube that we can actually use.

00:08:35.854 --> 00:08:36.024
Well,

00:08:36.034 --> 00:08:38.834
Anke: I mean, it seems to me like the
easier way, because then they'll do

00:08:38.874 --> 00:08:42.304
the educating for you, like they'd
be easier to educate because they

00:08:42.304 --> 00:08:45.354
already understand the science behind

00:08:45.364 --> 00:08:45.534
Tim: it.

00:08:46.164 --> 00:08:47.554
Yeah, they get it quick.

00:08:47.744 --> 00:08:47.984
And then

00:08:48.184 --> 00:08:51.684
Anke: if I go to the, you know, if I
go to the vet and the vet goes, look,

00:08:51.684 --> 00:08:53.974
this is what you've got to do, then
this is what we're going to do, right?

00:08:54.734 --> 00:08:55.154
Tim: Yeah.

00:08:55.474 --> 00:08:56.664
You know, it's really interesting.

00:08:56.674 --> 00:09:01.634
Like we had just a testimony the other
day that said, My vet wants to look at

00:09:01.684 --> 00:09:03.384
your product and this happens quite often.

00:09:03.944 --> 00:09:05.204
And I said, well, what happened?

00:09:05.204 --> 00:09:08.044
Well, they were going in there
with their dog and the current

00:09:08.044 --> 00:09:09.894
treatment wasn't working.

00:09:10.454 --> 00:09:13.354
And they were kind of out of
like the standard options.

00:09:13.624 --> 00:09:18.314
And so they left 60 days later,
they returned and the dog, the,

00:09:18.384 --> 00:09:20.234
the vet was like, what happened?

00:09:20.569 --> 00:09:24.119
Because the dog jumped up on the table
and before it could, you know, like

00:09:24.129 --> 00:09:27.479
barely kind of walk in the office
and they were like, well, we found

00:09:27.479 --> 00:09:34.029
Wintrow and, um, and, and we hear
that often, like very, very often.

00:09:34.389 --> 00:09:38.069
Um, and so that's what really the vet
looks at it and the right vet will be

00:09:38.069 --> 00:09:41.939
like, I want to have this as an option
because it really does benefit the dog.

00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:47.779
Anke: So what would be typical, um,
you know, symptoms or situations?

00:09:48.324 --> 00:09:51.494
When you think like, oh,
I need this for my dog.

00:09:52.254 --> 00:09:54.374
Or would you say, would
you use a preventative?

00:09:54.694 --> 00:09:58.524
Like, would it be a good idea to, you
know, like how we take supplements?

00:09:58.534 --> 00:10:02.894
Like you don't need a real serious problem
to, you know, to say, well, Hey, let me

00:10:02.894 --> 00:10:05.594
get someone to really, You know, whatever

00:10:05.594 --> 00:10:07.224
Tim: it is, but what's your talk?

00:10:07.234 --> 00:10:11.214
No, so that's, that's a really good
question because we started because

00:10:11.214 --> 00:10:16.734
it works so well for the right
situation that it's a real remedy.

00:10:16.744 --> 00:10:19.864
So people typically have come
to us with problems, right?

00:10:20.214 --> 00:10:22.734
A problem that maybe they've tried
a lot of different things and

00:10:22.734 --> 00:10:25.504
it didn't work, or maybe they're
not quite seeing the results.

00:10:25.824 --> 00:10:28.624
So our, like, number one
product is our allergy product.

00:10:28.674 --> 00:10:30.034
It really works.

00:10:30.324 --> 00:10:34.034
Changes, you know, obviously the
itching and stuff, but like hot spots

00:10:34.064 --> 00:10:35.624
and skin issues and irritations.

00:10:35.624 --> 00:10:37.644
It really does a great job with that.

00:10:38.164 --> 00:10:43.044
Um, and then hip and joint, that's a very
visual product, still remedy for the most

00:10:43.044 --> 00:10:49.304
part, um, are calming and there's so much
separation, anxiety and, um, anxious dog.

00:10:49.314 --> 00:10:52.754
Now, especially, um, out of the
adoption world and the rescue

00:10:52.754 --> 00:10:56.264
world, it seems like there's a
lot of that, um, that's going on.

00:10:56.844 --> 00:11:02.289
And then we just added in the
last, some preventative products.

00:11:02.289 --> 00:11:06.429
And I'll tell you why it's, it's
important to think about preventative,

00:11:06.459 --> 00:11:08.149
because the way our product works.

00:11:08.864 --> 00:11:13.094
We're not trying to, um, boost
your nutrition in any way.

00:11:13.104 --> 00:11:15.044
It's has nothing to do with nutrition.

00:11:15.674 --> 00:11:22.824
Um, all we're doing is plasma is
nature's natural enemy to inflammation.

00:11:23.474 --> 00:11:27.594
And so with all the stressors and
everything that are on our dogs nowadays,

00:11:27.694 --> 00:11:34.584
noise, chemicals from the house, you
know, just whatever, you know, people,

00:11:34.594 --> 00:11:36.274
situations, all of these things.

00:11:37.539 --> 00:11:39.799
Those stressors cause
inflammation somewhere.

00:11:39.819 --> 00:11:44.329
Now, the question is, your body is,
the body can handle, like, we're

00:11:44.329 --> 00:11:47.869
designed to handle and inflammation
is not necessarily a bad thing.

00:11:48.219 --> 00:11:54.729
The problem is when it becomes excessive
because it's unable to resolve itself

00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:56.619
because of all the certain stressors.

00:11:56.639 --> 00:11:59.239
And sometimes it could be diet,
sometimes it could be chemicals.

00:11:59.659 --> 00:12:05.159
So, Winpro's promise is really,
That we return the dog to normal

00:12:05.729 --> 00:12:09.169
and the dog then heals itself.

00:12:09.209 --> 00:12:14.689
Like we're not trying, it's, we just
want the dog system to be able to

00:12:14.689 --> 00:12:18.629
handle the stuff that it's supposed
to be able to handle and when they're

00:12:18.639 --> 00:12:20.389
normal, they're perfect, you know, right?

00:12:20.409 --> 00:12:21.959
Like no different than us.

00:12:21.979 --> 00:12:23.699
We have a normal gut.

00:12:24.174 --> 00:12:25.164
That's a perfect gut.

00:12:25.294 --> 00:12:28.554
There is no, we don't
need to boost anything.

00:12:28.564 --> 00:12:33.244
We are just returning it to normal so
that their, their system can heal itself.

00:12:33.254 --> 00:12:35.514
And that's what I think is
really, really cool about that.

00:12:38.614 --> 00:12:39.614
Would it be kind of

00:12:39.614 --> 00:12:43.534
Anke: far fetched to think that that
could also help with like behavior

00:12:44.314 --> 00:12:48.434
issues because of like, from what I
learned from my recent summit is that a

00:12:48.434 --> 00:12:53.254
lot of it is, you know, like underlying
or part of, of what's going on that

00:12:53.254 --> 00:12:54.964
the dog's not comfortable in pain

00:12:54.964 --> 00:12:55.334
Tim: somehow.

00:12:56.754 --> 00:12:57.304
Oh my gosh.

00:12:57.304 --> 00:12:57.514
Yeah.

00:12:57.514 --> 00:12:57.884
So that.

00:12:58.289 --> 00:13:04.129
So that happens, we, the lightbulb
moment I had kind of around this

00:13:04.129 --> 00:13:08.209
conversation was when a trainer
was using our calming product.

00:13:08.499 --> 00:13:11.909
And I thought, oh, that must be
an anxious dog, you know, but they

00:13:11.909 --> 00:13:17.089
said, no, a dog can't really accept
training if they're in any type of

00:13:17.109 --> 00:13:22.129
pain or discomfort because they're
always trying to protect themselves.

00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:27.089
From being hurt, you know, and I
thought, wow, that's really interesting.

00:13:27.089 --> 00:13:28.009
I never thought of it like that.

00:13:28.009 --> 00:13:31.739
And then over, you know, over
time, you know, realize that.

00:13:32.279 --> 00:13:36.029
You know, we can say, hey, my, my
shoulders hurt a little bit today, so

00:13:36.029 --> 00:13:37.819
I'm, I'm not going to do this thing.

00:13:38.549 --> 00:13:43.049
Um, but the, you know, a dog, they speak
to us in different ways, obviously, but

00:13:43.249 --> 00:13:47.529
they're really, if that's happening,
they, their behavior changes because

00:13:47.529 --> 00:13:49.119
they're just protecting themselves.

00:13:49.974 --> 00:13:54.324
Um, and I've got a really
quick story about why I'm here.

00:13:54.334 --> 00:13:56.784
It kind of goes along
this lines a little bit.

00:13:56.784 --> 00:14:01.654
I, I married, um, into a Chihuahua
when I first got married.

00:14:01.984 --> 00:14:04.524
And I just make a joke of that
because I'm more of a big dog

00:14:04.534 --> 00:14:06.134
guy, but I ended up loving,

00:14:06.134 --> 00:14:09.394
Anke: but

00:14:09.394 --> 00:14:11.184
Tim: I ended up loving Roxy.

00:14:11.194 --> 00:14:13.154
She was like the greatest dog ever.

00:14:13.574 --> 00:14:18.204
Well, at some point she had just stopped
jumping on the couch and the bed.

00:14:18.744 --> 00:14:21.724
And, you know, a little dog
like that jumping up on the bed

00:14:21.724 --> 00:14:25.134
and the couch is like us two
storied building type of thing.

00:14:25.234 --> 00:14:27.204
So it really, you know, worn our joints.

00:14:27.754 --> 00:14:32.864
And, but I also grew up in a generation
where the dog used to be outside,

00:14:32.944 --> 00:14:37.984
then it got maybe a doghouse outside,
then it maybe got let in when it

00:14:37.984 --> 00:14:42.414
was like 30 degrees below, then, you
know, now we're sleeping with them.

00:14:42.974 --> 00:14:46.414
So I didn't really know anything
about supplements or, you know,

00:14:46.949 --> 00:14:48.599
Anything outside of food, I guess.

00:14:49.529 --> 00:14:54.869
And so, a friend of mine who's an
investor in WinPro here in Iowa said,

00:14:54.869 --> 00:14:58.809
hey, we're, this is a cool company that's
doing this science from out of state.

00:14:59.189 --> 00:15:02.009
If, um, you know, give Roxy these,
you know, hip and joint shoots.

00:15:02.059 --> 00:15:04.939
And I really just kind of was like,
yeah, okay, you know, whatever.

00:15:05.329 --> 00:15:09.274
But then when I ran out of, I think,
her milk bones at the time, I gave her

00:15:09.274 --> 00:15:14.684
these twos and within 15 days she was
jumping all over the house, bed, couch.

00:15:14.694 --> 00:15:17.084
In fact, we get this a lot too.

00:15:17.094 --> 00:15:20.914
We returned her to normal
for what, for her age, right?

00:15:20.914 --> 00:15:23.534
It's not like she got a, she
wasn't a puppy again, but she got

00:15:23.534 --> 00:15:26.464
her good legs at the age she was.

00:15:26.894 --> 00:15:29.914
Um, and sometimes people will email
us and be like, Hey, you know what?

00:15:30.694 --> 00:15:31.504
Great product.

00:15:31.664 --> 00:15:35.954
I didn't realize how much I liked
them a little, like with a little less

00:15:36.204 --> 00:15:40.674
of themself because I'd gotten used
to the, you know, the new situation.

00:15:41.084 --> 00:15:45.584
Um, but we found out like it was aha,
because she could always make that jump.

00:15:45.994 --> 00:15:50.294
She was just choosing not to, and then
eventually new patterns get started.

00:15:50.294 --> 00:15:52.874
People pick, pick, pick their animals up.

00:15:53.194 --> 00:15:57.264
They carry, you know, and, um, and I
thought, wow, how cool would it be to,

00:15:57.294 --> 00:15:59.054
to work with a company that had such.

00:16:00.064 --> 00:16:04.264
a possible transformation for,
you know, for an, for a dog.

00:16:04.264 --> 00:16:06.654
And, and it was like, it was
just really, really cool.

00:16:07.804 --> 00:16:08.574
Anke: That's wonderful.

00:16:08.854 --> 00:16:09.224
Yeah.

00:16:10.074 --> 00:16:12.434
Well, my question is like, so
do you ship internationally?

00:16:15.164 --> 00:16:18.744
Tim: We're, we're, we're trying to,
we're trying to, it's a challenge.

00:16:19.114 --> 00:16:19.794
It's a challenge.

00:16:20.154 --> 00:16:20.464
Yeah.

00:16:20.484 --> 00:16:20.594
I

00:16:20.594 --> 00:16:22.724
Anke: mean, I know it's like, it's
not easy, but I think it would,

00:16:22.884 --> 00:16:23.774
Tim: you know, well, yeah.

00:16:25.209 --> 00:16:27.969
Yeah, and I think there are a
lot of other countries that are a

00:16:27.979 --> 00:16:33.929
little more open to plasma science
than, than maybe even, even the U.

00:16:33.929 --> 00:16:34.259
S.

00:16:34.269 --> 00:16:37.599
at this time, but it's, it's
coming on, like they get, I

00:16:37.599 --> 00:16:41.479
think, especially Germany, Germany
has like a, um, amazing team.

00:16:41.949 --> 00:16:45.509
science around some of that
stuff that they just kind of

00:16:45.509 --> 00:16:47.529
get how powerful that can be.

00:16:49.199 --> 00:16:52.449
Anke: So we talk allergies,
we've got like joint issues.

00:16:52.779 --> 00:16:55.719
Is there anything else that really
stands out where people would

00:16:55.729 --> 00:16:59.549
usually, um, come to you from?

00:16:59.759 --> 00:17:02.109
And do you have people who
go, well, look, you know, my

00:17:02.109 --> 00:17:03.929
dog's young, my dog's healthy.

00:17:04.364 --> 00:17:08.364
I just want to kind of, you know,
prevent and make sure they stay as long.

00:17:08.364 --> 00:17:13.694
I mean, who do people, you know, like for
our own health, we don't tend to do it.

00:17:13.694 --> 00:17:16.594
People always go to the, you
know, crash course when, when

00:17:17.144 --> 00:17:18.304
shit's already hit the farm.

00:17:18.674 --> 00:17:22.604
So I don't know, but people for the dogs
tend to be more, you know, I don't know.

00:17:22.884 --> 00:17:23.964
What's, what's your experience

00:17:23.964 --> 00:17:24.184
Tim: there?

00:17:25.034 --> 00:17:30.644
Yeah, so it's actually kind of funny
people, you know, pet parents tend to

00:17:30.654 --> 00:17:35.714
worry about their animals and more than
they do themselves sometimes, you know,

00:17:35.784 --> 00:17:41.574
like they'll read every ingredient on
a dog product, but then carry a bag of

00:17:41.644 --> 00:17:45.831
McDonald's with them and care less about
what, you know, they're eating sometimes.

00:17:45.831 --> 00:17:55.564
Um, but we do have like Daisy, my dog, she
gets our probiotic Prebiotic plasma powder

00:17:55.594 --> 00:17:57.664
that we just, it's a topper for the food.

00:17:58.134 --> 00:18:00.404
And, and she's, and she's like two.

00:18:00.864 --> 00:18:04.694
And that, that's a really, that
feels really good to get those

00:18:04.694 --> 00:18:06.244
probiotics and prebiotics in there.

00:18:06.244 --> 00:18:09.584
And then also, you know, the right
amount of, in my world, plasma.

00:18:10.054 --> 00:18:14.294
Um, and then the other thing that we
have that's on the preventative side,

00:18:14.334 --> 00:18:16.804
that is, um, a functional dental stick.

00:18:17.724 --> 00:18:21.394
And it's really interesting because
I didn't really believe that was the

00:18:21.414 --> 00:18:25.464
product that was going to make sense
because there's no scraping there is.

00:18:25.474 --> 00:18:30.974
It's not, you know, it's not, it's not
meant to like scrape anything off teeth.

00:18:30.984 --> 00:18:33.424
So it just, it kind of just
didn't make sense to me.

00:18:34.464 --> 00:18:41.564
But the science around plasma has proven
that, you know, a lot of the dental

00:18:41.564 --> 00:18:47.294
and oral issues are from bacteria,
inflammation, and the gum lining,

00:18:47.394 --> 00:18:49.184
which creates a lot of problems.

00:18:49.494 --> 00:18:56.254
Well, when you let the plasma kind of work
its way in there for 15 to 20 seconds,

00:18:56.994 --> 00:19:01.384
it really keeps, like in every other part
of the body, the mouth really healthy.

00:19:01.404 --> 00:19:06.519
Well, when you keep a mouth healthy The
teeth are whiter, the breath is fresher.

00:19:06.769 --> 00:19:10.279
And I I'm still amazed by that, to be
honest with you, because it just, it's

00:19:10.279 --> 00:19:12.329
still, I brush my teeth every day.

00:19:12.349 --> 00:19:16.199
So just to think you can just put
something in your mouth, um, that has

00:19:16.199 --> 00:19:18.489
such a profound impact is, is pretty cool.

00:19:18.489 --> 00:19:23.219
And, and that the dental, our dental
stick has, has really had that impact.

00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:26.129
So those are the two that are kind
of, um, I'm really excited about.

00:19:26.129 --> 00:19:28.379
And then we're also getting
into the cat world because the

00:19:28.379 --> 00:19:30.109
science really proves that out.

00:19:30.109 --> 00:19:31.759
So we're going to start
with the meal topper.

00:19:32.239 --> 00:19:35.179
And then also a dental bite
for cats because they have

00:19:35.309 --> 00:19:38.269
really challenging, um, dental.

00:19:40.109 --> 00:19:40.709
Anke: So do dogs

00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:41.069
Tim: like it?

00:19:42.309 --> 00:19:42.909
Yeah.

00:19:43.099 --> 00:19:43.509
They love it.

00:19:43.509 --> 00:19:44.229
They got old up?

00:19:44.809 --> 00:19:45.729
Yeah, they got old up.

00:19:45.739 --> 00:19:46.609
Most dogs do.

00:19:48.919 --> 00:19:49.389
Anke: Fascinating.

00:19:49.389 --> 00:19:50.669
I think it's totally fascinating.

00:19:51.239 --> 00:19:53.909
Never, I've never even heard
that this is the thing.

00:19:53.919 --> 00:19:57.199
Like, and I think that's where,
where the biggest workers in the

00:19:57.199 --> 00:19:58.799
sense that education piece, right?

00:19:59.149 --> 00:19:59.849
Tim: It is.

00:19:59.879 --> 00:20:00.179
Yeah.

00:20:00.179 --> 00:20:00.559
It is.

00:20:00.989 --> 00:20:02.259
That's why you and I are talking.

00:20:02.329 --> 00:20:02.399
I

00:20:02.399 --> 00:20:06.169
Anke: was just thinking like, if somebody
wants to educate themselves further

00:20:06.169 --> 00:20:07.769
and say, Oh, that sounds interesting.

00:20:08.064 --> 00:20:09.694
You know, where can they go find out more?

00:20:09.694 --> 00:20:11.924
Where can they, can they go and get some?

00:20:12.644 --> 00:20:16.994
Tim: Yeah, so the best place,
we're really in three main areas.

00:20:17.004 --> 00:20:19.224
So our website, winpropet.

00:20:19.234 --> 00:20:23.634
com, W I N P R O P E T dot com,
and I'll give you all these

00:20:23.664 --> 00:20:24.960
links and show notes and stuff.

00:20:24.960 --> 00:20:26.504
Yeah, of course, there goes show notes.

00:20:26.649 --> 00:20:29.169
And under here if you,
wherever you're watching.

00:20:29.169 --> 00:20:29.409
Yeah.

00:20:29.969 --> 00:20:30.629
Yeah.

00:20:30.979 --> 00:20:37.279
And, um, we're, I've got a coupon set up
for your listeners for, um, 20% off of

00:20:37.284 --> 00:20:41.509
first purchase, which is Soul 20 SOUL 20.

And then you can also buy on Amazon.

00:20:45.899 --> 00:20:49.889
Chewy over here are the main
ones, and I, I, I'll say this too.

00:20:51.024 --> 00:20:55.464
It's definitely, you know, we have
100 percent money back guarantee, and

00:20:55.464 --> 00:20:59.074
most people, most people do what they
should do, but we also understand

00:20:59.074 --> 00:21:00.674
that not every dog is going to eat it.

00:21:01.594 --> 00:21:05.934
We also understand that it may not have
a transformative result, you know, for

00:21:05.974 --> 00:21:10.204
every dog, but when it does, It's amazing.

00:21:10.234 --> 00:21:14.084
So it's like worth the, it's
worth, it's worth trying.

00:21:14.644 --> 00:21:17.934
Um, and we don't even ask
you to ship anything back.

00:21:17.954 --> 00:21:21.634
So it's literally, if you
buy it, give it a shot.

00:21:22.124 --> 00:21:25.854
And if it doesn't work out, you
just email us and that's it.

00:21:25.864 --> 00:21:27.164
You don't have to have any hassle.

00:21:28.534 --> 00:21:30.724
Anke: I mean, the worst thing,
the worst thing that can

00:21:30.744 --> 00:21:32.414
happen is that nothing happens.

00:21:32.989 --> 00:21:36.689
So it's not that like, Ooh,
my dog now has diarrhea.

00:21:36.709 --> 00:21:41.339
Like, actually, this is funny because,
because like my first dog, my, my mom

00:21:41.339 --> 00:21:45.159
would buy him these dental sticks,
you know, from the shop and he'd

00:21:45.159 --> 00:21:49.449
like, no, like he would, they would
not get down and go down well at all.

00:21:49.459 --> 00:21:51.289
Like he literally like, yeah, no.

00:21:52.319 --> 00:21:56.789
So, I mean, you know, so if nothing is
the worst that can happen, then it's,

00:21:56.869 --> 00:21:58.189
Tim: it's definitely a good try.

00:21:59.059 --> 00:21:59.569
Yeah.

00:21:59.669 --> 00:22:01.859
So we want to make it as
easy as possible to try.

00:22:02.664 --> 00:22:03.024
Anke: Awesome.

00:22:03.054 --> 00:22:03.364
