In this episode, Kylie sits down with Dr. Griffin a veterinarian whose journey stretches from the turquoise waters of Grenada to the heart of animal rescue right here at home. A proud St. George’s graduate, Dr. Griffin shares how island life shaped his perspective, his compassion, and his calling in veterinary medicine.
But at the center of it all is his passion for fostering and adoption. He opens up about the animals who changed him, the realities of fostering, and why giving a pet a temporary home can save a life. He also breaks down the practical side how to get started, what resources are available, what shelters cover, and how anyone with a little love and a little space can make a huge difference.
With stories of travel, rescue wins, unexpected lessons, and a whole lot of heart, this episode is equal parts inspiring and educational. Whether you’ve fostered before or you’re just curious what it’s all about, Dr. Griffin’s insight will leave you feeling encouraged and maybe even ready to open your home to a furry friend in need.
Tune in for a conversation full of warmth, purpose, and a bit of island spirit.
