Behavior Counseling
Often the problem we see with our pets has nothing to do with a physical ailment but it is behavioral. Some behavioural problems can be so serious that they threaten the life of the pet when a frustrated or fearful pet owner can no longer cope with the difficult or aggressive actions of their pet and are considering euthanasia.
Veterinarians are well trained in pet behaviour and are prepared to discuss with pet owners on how to handle their pet's fear, anxiety or aggression based problems. At times medications may even be prescribed as part of the treatment protocol.
Many behavior problems are best dealt with by meeting with a trained specialist. Dr Engel is happy to discuss referrals to these professionals with you.
