Canine Lab 4 (Online Course)

Many dogs dislike or are fearful of various types of handling for procedures such as toenail trims, injections and venipuncture. While it may seem faster to use force-restraint, this type of handling frequently makes the patient worse and takes more time. Techniques for training dogs to enjoy procedures are straightforward, but there are important nuances. In this lab you’ll learn the detailed steps that will lead to quick and efficient success. Your patients will now be happy and your clients will be, too.
