Coaching Call: Stress-free Setups with Elena

This week, I'm taking you on a coaching call with one of the Club's founding members, Elena. We talk about some setups she's using, as well as ways to chart progress, make changes, and move through the later stages of her dog and cat coexistence journey.

In this episode

This coaching call with Elena focuses on the current setups she has for her dog Piper and her cat Ziggy - what is working, what isn't and ways that some simple changes to the setup might make things less stressful for everyone involved. Naomi and Elena talk about management and strategic interactions, the different phases of Setup as well as focusing on creating a safe space for both animals.

MA, KPA-CTP
specializing in cat and dog integration

Hi! I'm Naomi, and I'm a "cat-and-dog person" 👋 My goal with this podcast is to speak to people with multi-species households who currently feel alone. There are lots of highs and lows when trying to manage the relationships between your animals. This podcast will give you clear, actionable information and guidance about the unique issues that come up between cats and dogs. And the monthly interviews with my fellow trainers who have cats and dogs will definitely help you realize that you aren't alone!

A bit about me: I'm a certified professional dog trainer (KPA-CTP) and have my MA in Animal Behavior and Conservation. I live in my own multi-species household in Philadelphia, PA with my husband, two human kids, Uri (a mini American Eskimo Dog), and Rio (a domestic shorthair cat). I also LOVE Twizzlers (the original kind, NOT pull-and-peel).

I look forward to getting to know you and your pets on your journey towards a more peaceful and safe coexistence!
