Pet Behavioral Counseling
Pet health and good behavior | Vet clinic The Woodlands
Here at Animal Clinics of The Woodlands. our goal is to assist our clients with their pet's behavioral issues and ensure the health of their pets so that all members of the family can live in harmony and enjoy their time together for years to come.
There may be times when your pet does something that is upsetting or frustrating to you. For the most part, pets learn just like humans do and respond to positive and constant reinforcement of good behaviors. If your pet is not responding or changing their habits, call us or make an appointment. We are happy to discuss any behavioral issues you may be experiencing with your pet.
The first step is ruling out any medical issues that may be contributing to the negative behaviors. Initially an exam is recommended to discuss the problems and, if warranted, further testing such as lab-work may be recommended to rule out certain medical causes.
Some examples of undesired behavior can include:
Many times behavioral & environmental modification will make a tremendous difference in unwanted behaviors. When medically necessary, medications are warranted to improve unwanted behaviors. For more serious behavioral issues, we also team up a local behavioral specialist and can help facilitate an appointment when necessary.
Our caring and capable staff is ready to help. Give us a call today, or make an appointment today!
