Mazel Pups Podcast
The Mazel Pups podcast is that perfect space for Jewish and Jew-ish (however you define it) dog lovers to connect. Join us for a delightful blend of learning, insight, humor and love for our four-legged friends.
You'll hear from a wide variety of Jewish people who do all kinds of fascinating things related to dogs: an academic who studies Jewish pet names; a pet lawyer; veterinarians; human parents of canine social media stars; a long-time employee, and current Board Member, of the Israel Guide Dog Center; an entrepreneur who started a dog-walking and pet-sitting business; artists who paint dogs; a dog mom who had a Bark Mitzvah for her pup; a couple who included their dogs in their wedding; and many others.
The podcast is filled with heart, humor and a deep appreciation for both Jewish culture and our beloved canine companions. It's Paw-sitively awesome and we hope you'll join us!

Greg Fox: From Suits to Dog Shelters
Join me, Rabbi Robyn Frisch, for this inspiring episode in which I talk with Greg Fox, who shares about his transformative career shift from working in the corporate world to becoming development director at a municipal animal shelter. Learn how Greg leveraged his network and implemented innovative ideas to successfully create significant new revenue channels. His initiatives have not only brought in essential funds for the shelter, but they’ve also engaged the community and inspired the next generation of donors and adopters.Listening to Greg, you’ll hear about the rewarding and heartwarming and also the challenging aspects of working with animal shelters as we discuss the emotional realities faced by both staff and volunteers. Greg also shares his aspirations for the future – and, to put it mildly, Greg thinks BIG. But if there’s anyone who’ll be able to bring their dreams to help shelter dogs to reality, I have no doubt that it’s Greg.We also discuss the power of small actions in supporting animal adoption, from fostering to social media engagement.
