What Is Behavioral Evaluation?
From tail-wagging to aggression, your pet's behavior says a lot about what they're feeling. An animal's environment, instincts, and history all affect current behavior. Sometimes, animals act out or engage in destructive behavior as a result of being stressed, anxious, fearful, or simply inactive. At Pet Method, we provide behavioral evaluations to pinpoint temperament issues and offer effective solutions to correct the problem. Dr. Hunter Finn is an expert in identifying what's driving a particular behavior, as well as educating pet owners in techniques to alleviate any issues. If you're interested in learning more about behavioral evaluation, please contact our office in McKinney, TX.
How Does A Behavioral Assessment Work?
After we find out some basic information about your pet and identify any triggers, we will assess and observe your pet's behavior based on several factors, such as:
- Excitability
- Aggression
- Training and obedience
- Attachment
- Separation anxiety
Improving a pet's behavior requires teamwork between the veterinarian and the pet owner. Based on the results of the behavioral assessment, Dr. Finn will work with you to implement a behavior modification strategy, which may involve several steps. The goal is to eliminate fear, stress, and anxiety in your pet. Through consistency and positive reinforcement, you should start to see positive changes over time.
