Why Is Behavior Assessment Important For Pets?

Behavior assessment is important for pets because it can help identify the underlying cause of a behavior problem, which is crucial for developing an effective treatment plan. By understanding the root cause of a behavior issue, our veterinarians can work with you to create a customized plan that addresses the specific needs of your pet.

What Are The Common Behavior Issues For Pets?

Common behavior issues for pets include aggression, separation anxiety, destructive behavior, and house soiling. These issues can be caused by a variety of factors, including genetics, past experiences, and medical conditions. Our veterinarians will work with you to determine the root cause of your pet's behavior problem and develop an appropriate treatment plan.

Behavior Modification

Our veterinarians can work with you to develop a behavior modification plan that addresses the specific needs of your pet. This can include techniques such as positive reinforcement, desensitization, and counter-conditioning.

Medication Management

In some cases, medication may be needed to help manage behavior issues. Our veterinarians can work with you to determine if medication is an appropriate option for your pet and create a medication management plan that addresses their specific needs.

We have an in-house laboratory that helps us to provide an accurate diagnosis and treatment plan for your pet. Our veterinarians can use this laboratory to check for any medical conditions that may be impacting your pet's behavior.
