Canine Lab 4: Desensitization and Counterconditioning: Teaching Dogs to Willingly Accept Medical Procedures

3 CE units

Many dogs react strongly to handling for nail trims, injections, and venipuncture and often this is a result of previous negative interactions. While it may seem faster to use force, this makes the patient worse and takes more time. In this lab, you will learn the detailed steps and nuances which will lead to quick and efficient success. With each low stress interaction, your patient will enjoy their visits more and so will the clients.
