Behavioral Consultation

Pets can have a variety of behavior issues. There are several factors that affect your pet’s behavior including age, surroundings, health, diet and many more. In a lot of cases behavioral issues are due to stress.

Apart from mental conditions, behavioral changes are also the outcome of some physiological problems such as pain or discomfort. The first step in a behavioral consultation is a full physical examination to rule out any physiological factors that may be present.
