Hi all!

Full description and registration link are below.

Soothing The Savage Beast: Vet Visits For Aggressive Dogs

Thursday, March 12th – 6 pm Pacific time (9 pm Eastern)

If your sweet, friendly dog goes into “Cujo mode” as soon as you come through the door of the veterinary clinic, rest assured – you’re not alone!  In this webinar, we’ll discuss how you can work with your veterinarian to make your pup’s vet visits as safe and stress-free as possible, for all parties involved.

Specifically, we’ll talk about the following topics:

• Training and behavior modification strategies
• Pre-visit anxiety meds and sedation options
• How to make a plan with your veterinarian

We’ll also discuss a few case examples, to give you some specific ideas that might work for your situation.

(Note that, although this webinar will be geared towards dogs who bark, growl, lunge, or try to bite at the vet’s office, a lot of the information will also be applicable to dogs who are “just” anxious or fearful.)
