Information for Veterinary Practices
Hello From MDC - Roxy and Elin here
We are certified animal behaviourists that are level 5 and 6 qualified clinical behaviourists. You can find out about us here. We would happily pop over to your practice introduce ourselves and offer CPD learn and lunch sessions on animal behaviour. . We regularly complete cpd and qualifications to keep out knowledge up-to date. We are ethical, force free and experienced with dog behaviour specalising in anxiety and aggression cases. We have quality qualifications relevant to our field of expertise - Bsc(Hon) animal behavhiour, IMDTB, ADPT, PPG to name a few.
Behaviour problems may arise both directly and indirectly as a result of concurrent or previous medical problems. Veterinary involvement is therefore essential in eliminating contributing factors of the problem and prioritising the diagnostic and treatment strategy to be used in any given case. We request our clients seek referral from their GP vet to work collaboratively on their dogs behaviour and keeping you in the loop as needed. We are happy to use practice paperwork where this is available with a copy of veterinary records.
We offer behaviour modification packages to set our clients up for success. This begins with a case history and decompression plan. Putting tailored management in place and meeting the dogs needs. We work with techniques to counter condition (changing the emotional drive for the behaviour or meeting the behaviour need) and desensitization. As part of our role we work with some vets closely supporting the use of psychopharmacology to support cases that would benefit from medication support. We do not discuss medications directly with our clients as non prescribing practitioners, but liaise with a clients vet team as requested. Our work includes dynamic risk assessment so asses the suitability of differnt plan options and behaviour modification diary's to track change.
