🎙 The Unbreakable Bond: Service Dogs and Their Life-Saving Impact with Jennifer Arnold
Canine Assistants founder Jennifer Arnold talks with @KateTucker about the unbreakable bond between service dogs and their owners, and the science behind their life-saving impact.
The Unbreakable Bond: Service Dogs and Their Life-Saving Impact with Jennifer Arnold, Hope Is My Middle Name Season 4, Episode 10
Educating dogs to change the world, that’s the work of Canine Assistants founded in 1991 by Jennifer Arnold, in the wake of her father’s unexpected death and her diagnosis of multiple sclerosis at age 16. Fueled by legacy and limitation, Jennifer funded her scrappy startup with wide-ranging odd jobs and a donation bucket at the local Walmart. To date, the non-profit has placed over 3,000 service dogs with people who have mobility difficulties, Type 1 Diabetes, epilepsy/seizure disorders, and other special needs. Their Community Service Dogs provide therapy in Children's Hospitals for patients, families, and staff, and their Community Facilitators are helping scale their work across America.
Join us for poignant and heartwarming stories of superhero dogs who love us enough to save our lives, and learn a bit about the science behind their impressive capabilities. And if you’re looking for tips and tricks for your own pup, Jennifer Arnold shares her Bond-Based Approach to teaching dogs, which forgoes traditional training methods, focusing instead on the powerful bond between humans and our canine companions.

The think is people in this country have gotten lazy and consumer driven life isnt good for anyone but the big companies and we see how that has played outlook where we are today we MUST GO BACK TO OUR ROOTS AND REBUILD OUR SMALL COMMUNAL TOWNS
Dandelions mean compacted soil but healthy soil
nothing was explained here
Hey how do I get someone to reach out to me! I want to know how I can be apart of this
❤❤❤❤❤ I love you Rahsaan!!! I hope you see this!! I am beyond proud of you and the man you are!!! You were always amazing to Carol/mom and me!!! XXXXXOOOOO
Way too expensive
This is pure Marxist, woke BS. Not the environmental aspects of it, I completely agree with regenerative ranching and we practice it on our place, but this whole idea of “carbon credits” is a total fraud.
Carbon payments, carbon credits, what a scam. Wall Street laughing their azzes off.
Niiiice!!!!
That is just not possible, propaganda!
What 😂?
I am a retired trucker and I drove through Greensburg about a month after this happened. It literally looked like a war zone. Not a single smaller limb on any tree, most buildings leveled and what few still had any walls standing, those had been hit by so much debris, traveling so fast that it resembled bullet holes and grenade blasts. Literally nothing and nobody was moving anywhere. It was so eerie that I can never forget how destroyed it was. I can't even put into words what I felt inside. It was both awesome and horrifying at the same time
Yeah, it's like going down on my wife. If you're bi-curious, just have a hazy IPA.😂😊
Love this regenerative agriculture movement, because it’s how nature is supposed to work. But PLEASE can we stop this “carbon” concern false science nonsense!!!!! The entire carbon “science” contributing to “climate change” is 100% false!! It’s an agenda for the elite to enslave us all and tax us or steal our land… the real scientists have proven over and over it is NOT contributing to climate change! Nature has natural cycles, but the deep state is heating the atmosphere with their atmospheric manipulation station’s! American rancher’s need to stick with old America… and not get involved with these climate-change-hoax-scientist’s!!
Ayana showed me how to take steps toward what I can do about Climate Change. I love her writing style of presenting what happens by thinking in the positive.
Also, watched the whole series and it’s amazing. Have to watch it again to really get a understanding
What’s the best mixture of grass/plants for a northern climate. Wet spring and dry summer. Planning on try some of ur ideas on a pasture I want to rehab
Did I miss numbers and results of how it even works???

You could always just use everyone in society to produce methane, the collectors would be rather awkward for everyone. 😂
Explained to a 2 year old maybe
So my guess is he's the grandson of the late great David McCullough the writer historian.
Inspiring asf
Awesome, inspiring episode! Reimagining Black Wallstreet. Thank you for sharing.
So the surplus is free energy 🤔 right!!! WELL THEN WHY CANT I GET FREE ENERGY THEN, LOWER THE COST OF MY BILLS?????
And then you manually winch it back up to the surface and repeat a million times.
Its a neat idea on a dry erase board, but we are better off digging up rocks that produce heat and creating steam with it.
I guess I miss the main point of this system, how does it generate net electricity? I assume by dropping a weight, but doesn’t consume the equivalent energy bring it back up ? Or does the methane push it up
Bait and switch ! All this talk about being in Texas just to move to Califas??
Williams George Martinez Sarah Taylor Elizabeth
How do you do it?
all things yield to persistence
Paradise❤…
Great idea! You guys need to consider making scalable versions of this that can be built into buildings so they can mechanically store energy through the day. It’s a good match for solar rooftop! Could be a market beyond just old oil wells. Could one day become building code for tall buildings.
This was an inspiring story. Wasn’t really about the tech at all as the story focused on the journey of two sets of innovation entrepreneurs, each in their own phase of business innovation - one early, one later. The combination of both seemed to have given each a purpose.
Gravity storage has two limitations. The efficiency of the motor lifting the weight, water,, and the efficiency of the generator to produce electricity. 75% efficiency for either is generous. Keep in mind,, the actual motor is 75% efficient,, that does not include the mechanical efficiency of the reel, cable, bearings, blocks, sheaves, etc. So too the power goes through step down transformers and then step up transformers when taking grid power or putting it back. So take 100 watts of power from the grid and you finish with 75 watts of potential once the weight is raised. Drop it and you get back 75% of 75 watts = 56 watts. now subtract from that the transformer steps up and down , 2 to 5% for each step, mechanical losses, friction, etc Put 100 watts in and you are going to get a usable approx 46 watts back. The one golden aspect of pumped storage,, power exactly when you want it. And no degradation of the stored power,,, use it today or use it a year from now. Mile deep well casings,, how many have refilled with oil or water?
I like your take on it with at least estimated numbers. It would be prudent to put solar panels on the rigs and slowly wind the weight up during the day using just solar power. The video was posted 2 years ago, and this is the first I’ve heard of it. They should have some real world experience by now, good or bad.
@@woods-garage I learned (the hard way) that I ain't so smart. So you can laugh with me, (at me). Years ago I was challenged to design an ultra energy efficient home for New Mexico. Lotsa Michigan experience,, so New Mexico was a welcome challenge. (Hmm passive solar, super insulated,, pre computer for me,, a week's worth of paper and pencil. Time spent at the University of Michigan library for climate research,, yada, yada, I finally arrived at an over hang length, with air vent, 9 inches of masonry exterior, 6 inch fiberglass interior, percentage of windows,,, Yeah, yeah,, and then it whacked right between the eyes, What are the dimensions of an adobe brick? uh,, 9 inches,, and The logs that stick out of the roof in an adobe dwelling? Vigas. And they are supposed to stick out far enough to shade the wall during the summer day,, with a space to allow the wall to cool convectively at night. I found out I wasn't so smart. The Ancient ones, the Anasazi, the Navajo, the Aztec,, had been doing itt for 2,000 years. I don't think they have millions of wells available to them. Every last one of those wells has been sitting for 2 years, 20 years, 50 or 100 years,, They have refilled (oil or water), the steel casings have rusted through and collapsed. I do not think they can come even to an efficiency of 46% More likely 20% plus or minus. The are climbing a very steep hill. We currently pump water for energy storage,, and the best idea to float along is use the excess power in and around Las Vegas to pump Colorado River water back up hill into Lake Mead. The generators already exist. If you have a wind turbine,, don't even use the step of electrical generation. Pump it directly, mechanically, back up into Lake Mead.
Cool.
This is incredibly misleading.
What’s the net energy output per well (I.e., energy generated during the drop minus energy used to lift the total weight to the surface, minus cost of investment allocated per total round trip?)? Cool idea, but I’d have to see the total feasibility study and ROI calculations to make an informed decision. Why? Testing on a water well is one thing compared to O&G wells. O&G wells not producing and abandoned, are plugged…so, you’d have to get permits (good luck in California, I’d start in Texas where it’d be more reasonable). drill out the plug/cement in the casing bore to make this work, which is VERY expensive, plus remove junk in the well and test the integrity of the well casing and cement bond between the open hole and casing (needed to isolate oil/gas zones and protect fresh water zones). The energy required to spool a wireline cable and the tool weight is ENORMOUS. Wireline trucks (e.g., Schlumberger or Halliburton cased hole well logging units) use diesel engines to drive powerful hydraulic spools capable of hoisting tons of weight. You’d have to control the weight and generator “brake” gearing during the drop (or hydraulic brakes) to release in a controlled manner as the total weight supported increases (as the cable unspools).
A ‘clean energy’ disaster looms off our coasts
Wonderful story! A solution [ energy storage ] while removing a problem [ methane leaking abandoned wells ].
Boy i hope digestate does not go on fields, because this is how you get microplastics 101
This is just a feel-good story because unfortunately when you consider the volume of storage to the volume of cost it is still very inefficient
One thing's for sure you need to get started ,because Climate Change is completely out of control !
No mention of Cost per Watt hour, Watt hour storage per well, Storage efficiency, maintenance cost, cost to connect to the grid or any other relevant facts! More farts and ferry dust! If you want a real solution, start building nuclear plants!
