Get Flip Coffee and Help Dogs Here: https://www.flipcoffee.com Cesar Millan. YES, The Dog Whisperer himself sits down with Rocky and Kelly for one of the most raw, inspiring, and surprising conversations we've had on Dogs & Coffee. From growing up in Sinaloa where choosing "dogs over drugs" was a literal decision, to crossing the border alone at 21, spending Christmas and New Year at the border, to becoming the guy who walked 40–60 off-leash dogs out of an old Astro Van, to the LA Times article that created a line of TV producers outside his door the next morning. Cesar opens up about everything- including the moment he came closest to giving up, and the faith, energy, and instinct that brought him back. He talks pack positions, raising front/middle/back-of-the-pack dogs, his 43-acre Dog Psychology Center, and how a kangaroo ended up being part of his healing journey. And through all of it? He sips exactly what we should have guessed: straight espresso - the same thing he's been drinking since he was five years old.

| How a Chance Meeting Saved a Vet's Heart | 05 Dec 2025 | 01:09:17 | |
Get Flip Coffee and Help Dogs Here: https://www.flipcoffee.com Dr. Kwane Stewart aka The Street Vet sits down with Rocky and Kelly for an honest, funny, and deeply emotional conversation about dog shelters, homelessness, and what it really means to be a good pet parent. From the childhood moment he chased an injured golden retriever through his neighborhood in Brownsville, Texas, to announcing at seven, fresh off watching The Black Stallion, that he would become a veterinarian… to eventually becoming a high-end vet serving wealthy clients in San Diego before the recession hit and pushed him into municipal shelter work in Modesto, where he was euthanizing dozens of animals by 10 AM. Dr. Kwane shares every chapter with unfiltered honesty about how it shaped him. How a quick 7-Eleven coffee stop became a $3 act of compassion, and man's "thank you for not ignoring me," became the seed that grew into Project Street Vet. Through it all, Dr. Kwane stays grounded, compassionate, and funny, even when the stories get heavy. And yes, we get into social media, misconceptions about homeless pet owners, and why walking an encampment in Oakland became "one of the best days" of a veteran journalist's life.

| This Company LEGALLY made a DOG their CEO 😅 | 13 Dec 2025 | 00:58:57 | |
Get Flip Coffee and Help Dogs Here: https://www.flipcoffee.com WeRateDogs founder Matt Nelson joins Rocky and Kelly for a hilarious and surprisingly heartfelt conversation about how a joke Twitter account became the internet's most joyful dog brand. Matt shares how it all started long before the followers, back when he was a kid who couldn't calm his emotions, but the golden retrievers in his house could. In college, he fell in love with comedy, noticed that almost all of his viral jokes were about dogs, and launched WeRateDogs from his tiny dorm room. Four days later, the account had more followers than he did… and by year's end, it had a million. Today, the brand is a full-time operation, a charitable foundation, and home to one extremely confident dog CEO: Javier, Matt's newly adopted, totally deaf, low-rider boss. Matt breaks down how he and his team choose dogs for the viral Top 10 lists, why only around 60 dogs in 10 years have ever earned a perfect 15/10, and what really qualifies a dog for the highest rating. He also shares the chaos of being recognized in public ("Can you rate my dog?") and the story behind the first autograph he ever signed- which someone immediately cared less about than the rating. PLUS! Rocky and Kelly get deputized to rate dogs. And yes… Rocky breaks the rules. Matt Nelson Coffee Order: decaf vanilla latte with oat milk Dog: Pumpkin!

| The Ugly Truth About Fake Service Dogs | 19 Dec 2025 | 01:14:16 | |
Get Flip Coffee and Help Dogs Here: https://www.flipcoffee.com Molly Burke joins Rocky and Kelly for a raw, wise, and surprisingly funny conversation about blindness, identity, and the guide dogs who've shaped every chapter of her life. From the moment doctors told her parents "she's going to go blind… there's nothing we can do" to a childhood spent losing vision in waves, Molly walks us through her story with honesty and clarity. She shares what it was like preparing for blindness while she could still see, learning Braille early, practicing cane skills long before she relied on them, and the accident that forced her into using a cane full-time at eight. Molly also opens up about the part no one sees: the neurological panic of rapid vision loss. And through it all: dogs. For 18 and a half years, she's rarely been without a guide dog by her side.

| Did Sarah Drew's Dog Know She Was Pregnant Before She Did?! | 24 Dec 2025 | 00:49:12 | |
Get Flip Coffee and Help Dogs Here: https://www.flipcoffee.com Actor and storyteller Sarah Drew joins Rocky and Kelly for a warm, candid, funny, and deeply heartfelt conversation about the dog who shaped her life: a blue-heeler mix named Lucy. You know Sarah from Grey's Anatomy, Guiding Emily, and her holiday mystery series Mistletoe Murders. But behind the roles is a story that spans intuition, devotion, motherhood, major life changes, and the kind of bond dog people understand instantly. Sarah shares how Lucy became her "first baby," how she seemed to sense every major shift in Sarah's life before it happened, including circling her protectively when she was pregnant without knowing, and how she stayed steady through cross-country shoots, building a family, and long days on set. She also opens up about Lucy's final chapter: the three separate times Sarah's family thought it was the end… and how Lucy kept choosing to stay just a little longer. BUT! This is Dogs & Coffee, so it's not all tears. Sarah tells the story of a cat on set who nearly staged a coup, Rocky becomes an official "dog sleuth," and we get a window into Sarah's Americano-with-cream-and-Splenda coffee order. This episode is a cozy holiday hug for dog lovers, mystery fans, and anyone who's ever been changed by an animal.

From there, Henrik breaks down the mindset behind building BarkBox, Bark in the Belly, and Bark Air, the first airline designed entirely around dogs. Henrik shares why he rejects the idea of "playbook founders," why he trusts instinct over consensus, and why he still stands by the straight-shooting comments he made in an Animal Planet pitch meeting with Rocky years ago. He also opens up about idea generation, risk, creative friction, and why solving problems for dogs is often easier, and more joyful, than solving them for humans.

| Bobby Berk Just Roasted This $10,000 Home Design Trend | 19 May 2026 | 00:55:30 | |
Get Flip Coffee and Help Dogs Here: https://www.flipcoffee.com Bobby Berk joins Rocky and Kelly for a conversation that is funny, deeply personal, and surprisingly emotional, starting with the story of a young kid in rural Missouri secretly redecorating his bedroom because he instinctively understood how space could affect the way a person feels. From there, Bobby opens up about growing up in a small town where he felt forced to hide who he was, the moment he realized he had to leave home at just 15 years old, and how survival mode eventually turned into ambition. He shares stories from telemarketing call centers, Applebee's shifts, sleeping in dorm rooms and cars, and the unexpected journey that eventually led him to New York City and the creation of his own furniture company. Bobby breaks down how he accidentally became a designer, why he never thought he was qualified for the industry, and how learning to "sell himself" became the key to building a business and eventually landing Queer Eye. He also reflects on the emotional impact of the show, the kindness of its fanbase, and what it felt like when strangers started sharing stories about how the show changed their lives. The conversation also dives into Bobby's relationship with his mini labradoodle Bimini, whose separation anxiety completely changed the rhythm of his home life and travel habits. Bobby shares why he refuses to design around fear of pets making messes, why dogs deserve to feel fully at home, and how your environment can dramatically affect your mental health.

| Cesar Millan Told Us Something We Weren't Ready For | 01 Jun 2026 | 01:08:26 | |
We're not sure our hearts were ready for this but I am so Glad Cesar shared. You know when the Dog Whisperer himself opens up and is willing to be venerable to help others it's because he has a heart of gold. In our Season 1 wrap (and our very first episode shot at the farm + brand-new coffee trailer), Kelly and Rocky revisit the moments that hit us hardest, including the one from Cesar Millan we honestly weren't ready for. We rewatch Zach Skow's "90 days to live" confession, Alison Eastwood's take on what dog rescue actually requires, and Molly Burke on the certified service-dog lie nobody talks about. Then we sit down with the voice behind Sitting With Dogs, our producer Alexis for the full behind-the-scenes she's never shared on camera. Plus this week's adoptable dog, Bolt.

| The Cat Guy Who Secretly Has 5 Dogs | The REAL Jackson Galaxy | 10 Jun 2026 | 01:24:01 | |
Jackson Galaxy is known worldwide as the cat behavior expert and host of My Cat From Hell, but his journey to becoming a pro didn't come in a straight line. Before the structure and stability, there was a struggle with addiction - until he walked into an animal shelter and found his purpose. In this episode, Jackson opens up about the realities of his past and how committing to the animals that no one else chose quietly started changing him back. We also dive deep into the broken shelter system, why he champions feral and community cats, and his famous "Seven Deadly Cat Sins" (including why you should never squirt your cat with water or declaw them). Plus, Jackson reviews some interesting pet toys, talks about the surprising discovery of a half-sister, and shares memories of his soul pets, Rudy and Velouria. Then, we wrap up with "Kelly's Always Right" and introduce this week's adoptable dog, Kaiser - a scruffy, 10-month-old terrier mix from Jersey who is great with cats!

| We Got Robbed...and It Keeps Getting Worse | 18 Jun 2026 | 00:59:30 | |
What do you do when the place you're building to help rescue dogs becomes the target of theft, vandalism, and repeated break-ins? This week, we're pulling back the curtain on something we've been dealing with at Flip Farms. Over the past few weeks, we've been hit by multiple robberies and acts of vandalism, and honestly, it's been frustrating, confusing, and at times pretty heartbreaking. We talk through what happened, how it's affected us, and what it feels like when a place you're pouring your heart into suddenly doesn't feel quite as safe. We also get into the emotional side of it all—the self-blame, the sleepless nights, the challenge of staying open and welcoming while figuring out how to better protect the farm, the animals, and the future we're trying to build here. But it's not all heavy. We share some of the bright spots too, including the launch of our new rescue coffee truck, an incredible turnout from the community at Rancho Coastal Humane Society, and some of the lessons we learned from our very first event. We also talk about Flip Farms, where it's headed, and why we're more committed than ever to creating a place that brings people together around rescue, coffee, and community. And because Flip is at the heart of everything we do, I share a special moment that reminded me why this whole journey started in the first place with my soul dog, Flip. Then we wrap up with this week's Adoptable Dog of the Week, Blossom, a beautiful Great Pyrenees who's discovering that people can be kind, safe, and worth trusting after a difficult start in life. If you've ever faced a setback while chasing a dream, or if you just believe dogs make the world a better place we'd love for you to join us.
