Naomi Rotenberg, MA, KPA-CTP, FPPE, is a dog trainer and the owner behind Praiseworthy Pets. She's also the host of It's Training Cats & Dogs podcast and a double mom to two humans and a cat-dog pair!
Naomi joins us today to share her wisdom on how she helps cats and dogs live together peacefully. She tells us about how she came to be a pet-mom to Rio (the cat) and Uri (the dog), why her education enhanced her pet-training skills, and how she continues to help cat-and-dog families find solutions through easy-to-follow tools and resources dedicated specifically to the issues multi-species households face.
In this episode, you'll get a behind-the-scenes look into various dog training topics, including what barrier frustration is for dogs, the importance of teaching children how to behave around pets, and why I'm obsessed with extinction bursts. You'll also hear about how diet and nutrition can affect animal behavior and why our pets are often a direct reflection of ourselves (and how to handle the frustration that comes with that realization!)
