Behavioural Husbandry within Veterinary Practice brings the preventive outlook to the realm of veterinary behavioural counselling. The authors encourage the whole veterinary team to consider the behavioural needs of their canine patients in all aspects of their experience of the practice. Acting as role models can not only enhance the welfare of patients, but also bring about happier and more loyal clients. A must-read for every veterinary professional.
Covers a range of areas including: patterns of exercise, sleeping arrangements, use of pet accessories, preparation for potentially traumatic surgery, social needs of pets, and understanding of the human-animal bond.
