Behavior Problems
An extended home visit to evaluate problems with puppies, dogs, and cats. Problems such as anxiety, aggression, compulsive disorders, house soiling, social manner problems, inter-dog or inter-cat problems, geriatric behavior problems, and vocalization will be evaluated and managed. Behavior modification through positive training methods and drug therapy(if needed) will be applied. Training aids, interactive toys and reading materials will be available on a per case basis. All training aids will be fitted and demonstrated.
An initial interview will be set up after owners fill out a questionnaire on the pet and their problems. The problems will be identified and a treatment plan will be formulated. Behavior modification techniques will be outlined and demonstrated with your pet and a trained pet. If drug therapy is to be included, a prescription medication will be discussed with your regular veterinarian. All recommended prescriptions will be dispensed by your vet.
