The interpretation of dog behaviors and preferred training methods have evolved over the years. If your puppy or adult dog is exhibiting undesirable behaviors like anxiety or aggression it is best to seek the advice of a professional trainer or behaviorist. There are veterinary specialists who can provide behavior modification techniques as well as appropriate medications to make your dog more receptive to training.

If your dog is aggressive or anxious during visits to the veterinarian there may be medications or other suggestions to help decrease his/her stress. Please give us a call prior to your appointment.
