In this episode of the Babalata Podcast, we host Shay Maimoni, founder of Woof Dogs, creator of Israeli Special Tactics K9, and board director at Pawz4Heroes.

Shay’s journey started in the military, where he trained his first dog and discovered a path that would later grow into multiple companies built around discipline, purpose, and leadership. Today, he is one of the most trusted names in elite canine training, working with high-profile clients and helping people build powerful relationships with their dogs. 

But Shay’s story isn’t just about dogs. It’s about building something meaningful from a skill, staying disciplined through growth, and turning purpose into real impact.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • How turning a personal skill into a business actually works
  • Discipline, habits, and long-term thinking in entrepreneurship 💰
  • The mindset required to grow multiple companies
  • What success really means beyond money
  • How Shay teaches his own kids about responsibility and financial thinking

Hosted by Eli Bavli (15), the conversation stays curious, direct, and honest—focusing on the habits, decisions, and mindset behind building a life and career with purpose.

This episode is for teens, young adults, and parents who want to understand how passion, discipline, and values can turn into real opportunity.
