Growling Behavior in Dogs with Dr. Hauser

In this episode, host Alyssa Watson, DVM, is joined by Hagar Hauser, DVM, DACVB, to talk about her recent Clinician’s Brief article, “Growling Behavior in Dogs.” Growling is a normal form of canine communication, and sometimes it can be a bigger problem when it doesn’t happen. Dr. Hauser offers a comprehensive review of why these behaviors happen—including how veterinary team members can inadvertently reinforce these behaviors—and offers tips to help strike a balance between a dog’s boundaries and warning signals with the need to complete an examination. Dr. Hauser also offers helpful advice to share with clients of these growly patients.Resource:https://www.cliniciansbrief.com/article/growling-behavior-dogs-aggression-bond-body-languageContact us:[email protected] to find us:Youtube.com/@clinicians_briefCliniciansbrief.com/podcastsFacebook.com/cliniciansbriefTwitter: @cliniciansbriefInstagram: @clinicians.briefThe Team:Alyssa Watson, DVM - HostAlexis Ussery - Producer & Multimedia Specialist
