090 Preparing for an Aggressive Dog Consultation

Episode 90 – Preparing for an Aggressive Dog Consultation   As Veterinary Behaviourists, safety is an extremely important part of our practice – safety for ourselves, our teams, safety for third parties and safety for the caregivers as well as the patients. Safety is especially important when we regularly see patients that are being presented for aggressive behaviours and that have a bite history. Safety is something I learned about very early on in my residency, but also something that I review and re-evaluate on a regular basis to ensure that safety protocols are fit for purpose and up to date, that my team is briefed and that safety is also always at the top of their minds when it comes to Behaviour Patients.   In this episode, I chat about the safety aspects I consider before, during and after the consultation, different strategies that I use myself in my own practice, but also strategies I have seen my colleagues around the world use in their practices.   This episode is INVALUABLE for anyone who is thinking about starting a Behaviour Service or who regularly sees Behaviour Patients including those that have a history of aggression.   One of THE most important aspects of keeping everyone safe is the ability to REALLY read canine body language and facial expressions well and if you are keen to get better at this, then I have just the thing for you!   Join my self-paced online Learn To Speak Dog course to get a better understanding of Canine Emotions, Communication, Boady Language, Facial Expressions, Sociability and so much more!   Use Discount Code – SUMMER50 for 50% off Learn To Speak Dog this summer! https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/learn-to-speak-dog   If you liked this episode of the show, The Pet Behaviour Chat, please LEAVE A 5-STAR REVIEW, like, share, and subscribe!   Facebook Group: Join The Veterinary Behaviour Community on Facebook   You can CONNECT with me: Website: Visit my website Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Instagram: Follow Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on Instagram Trinity Veterinary Behaviour Facebook: Join us on Trinity Veterinary Behaviour's Facebook page Trinity Veterinary Behaviour YouTube: Subscribe to Trinity Veterinary Behaviour on YouTube LinkedIn Profile: Connect with me on LinkedIn   Thank you for tuning in!
