Still assuming your clients are getting their dogs’ faecal tests done at the vet?

Worried about parasites spreading in your playgroups – but don’t know where to start with prevention?

And how could introducing a simple new service create a fresh revenue stream and set your facility apart from the competition?

In this episode, Dom Hodgson is joined by John Beres and Greg Page from Canine Lab Testing, the game-changing service transforming how boarding and daycare facilities manage parasite prevention. John and Greg explain why most pet parents aren’t getting faecal tests done (spoiler: compliance rates are around 20%), how parasites spread silently without showing clinical signs, and how their easy, vet-backed solution gives you total control over testing – while generating reliable new income.

You’ll also discover how requiring faecal testing can become a powerful differentiator in your marketing, signalling a higher level of care and helping you attract more discerning clients. And in the final segment, Dom shares a sneak peek of his Hershey Expo presentation, “The Price Is Right” – including why premium pricing is the fastest way to fix staffing issues, scale growth, and transform your business model.

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• The Dirty Truth – Why most pet parents skip faecal testing and how that’s putting dogs (and your business) at risk.
• Health + Revenue – How parasite testing protects dogs, reassures clients, and creates a simple new revenue stream.
• Competitive Edge – Why requiring faecal tests can position your facility as a premium, higher-standard provider.
• Data That Matters – What 18 months of testing reveals about parasite prevalence—and why most cases show no symptoms.
• Premium Pricing Power – Why charging more is the fastest way to solve staffing, retention, and growth challenges.
