In Episode 10 of Choose Your Hard, Travis Jansen sits down with Chelle, founder of Silver Snout Dog Rescue in Venice, Florida, a nonprofit dedicated to rescuing senior dogs the ones most often overlooked, surrendered, or forgotten.

In a world obsessed with what’s new, fast, and convenient, Chelle chose a different path. She chose to fight for dogs in the later chapters of their lives dogs who still have love to give but need patience, medical care, and a soft place to land.

This conversation goes beyond rescue work. It explores what responsibility looks like in modern society, why caring for elder animals reflects our values as a community, and how local businesses can play a powerful role in giving back as technology and busy lives pull us further apart.

This episode is about choosing the harder road not for recognition, but for impact. Because how we treat the vulnerable says everything about who we are.
