About this Episode

In this episode of the Matrix Green Pill Podcast, Hilmarie speaks with Dr. Katrin Jahn about her incredible journey in veterinary medicine and the inspiration behind her unique approach to animal care. Dr. Jahn discusses the founding of the German Veterinary Clinic, the evolution of fear-free and zero-pain practices, and her mission to elevate behavioral health in pets. She explains the motivation behind Trinity Veterinary Behavior and her popular online courses, Learn to Speak Dog and Learn to Speak Cat, designed to help owners better understand their furry companions.

She also debunks common myths around dominance theory, highlights the importance of positive reinforcement, and shares her personal “Green Pill Moment” — a childhood hospital experience that shaped her compassionate approach to animal care. Whether you’re a seasoned pet owner or a first-timer, this episode is packed with insights on how to build a healthier, happier relationship with your pet.

“As a profession, we’re amazing at taking care of the physical health needs of our pets, but we’re not so great at recognizing and treating mental and emotional ill health disorders.”

Dr Katrin Jahn

“Fear-Free is about reducing anxiety and stress in pets. It starts from the moment they leave their home to when they arrive at the clinic.”
