Lecture Synopsis:

Stress at the veterinary practice for our canine patients can play a huge part in not being able to provide a quality service to canine caregivers and make our jobs so much more difficult. This lecture will discuss trigger points in the vet practice, and what you as the vet professional can do to reduce fear, anxiety and stress. Also we will discuss how to make the vet visit a collaborative affair, involving the caregiver as a team member for ‘Team Dog’.

Learning Points:

  • Discuss the meaning of fear, anxiety and stress and what causes it
  • Discuss the stress triggers for dogs within the vet practice
  • Learn tasks that both vet professionals and caregivers can work on to reduce FAS
