Animal training and behavior cases are complicated and emotionally charged. We can get sidetracked or forget to advise the client on a specific aspect of management or training. Achieving consistency and quality in managing behavior cases requires a framework to minimize oversight and provide clients with thorough care. However, the structure also needs to be flexible and amenable to change based on the individual patient, client, and situation. This Session will explore general treatment guidelines and an approach to treatment discussion that is being implemented in a veterinary behavior specialty practice.

At ClickerExpo Washington, DC Debbie Martin will explore general treatment guidelines and an approach to treatment discussion that can be applied for a veterinary behavior specialty practice, or individually by an animal trainer or behavior consultant.
