Behavior Management
in the Veterinary Practice
It is vital that veterinary clinics have in place not only "crisis-management" strategies for handling aggressive animals, but also long-term strategies for behavior assessment, prevention, and correction in order to dramatically reduce the risk of aggression to family, veterinary staff and the community, and further to help ensure that unresolved behavior issues don't break the bond between pet and family. Helping to maintain the human- companion-animal bond is good community service AND good business!
We will create a Behavior Management Program for your practice, including:
Staff Training
