Ep 22: Happy Hour 8 - Behaviour Special

VN Times Podcast

August’s VN Happy Hour – sponsored by Bought By Many – was all about behaviour, and how VNs can support owners of pets with behavioural problems and the importance of “fear free” methods for handling pets in a clinical setting. Whether you weren’t able to join us on the 26 August or simply want to listen to our fantastic guest speakers again, we have you covered. This month we were joined by RVNs Linda Ryan, Elle Boden and Zoe Blake, who expertly answered delegates’ behaviour-related questions. Zoom threw some technical gremlins our way, so we apologise for the drop in audio during the panel session. Linda, Elle and Zoe are happy for you to contact them via their social media channels should you want to speak to them in more detail about their answers. There were so many great resources mentioned on the night, so here they all are for you to look through: LC Fitness www.instagram.com/lauracopley7 Inspiring Pet Teaching www.inspiringpets.com Inspiring Pet Teaching FB page www.facebook.com/InspiringPets The Friendly Pet Nurse https://thefriendlypetnurse.co.uk The Friendly Pet Nurse FB page www.facebook.com/thefriendlypetnurse The Friendly Pet Nurse Instagram page www.instagram.com/zoethefriendlypetnurse The Behaviour Nurse www.thebehaviournurse.com The Behaviour Nurse FB page www.facebook.com/ellethebehaviournurse The Behaviour Nurse Instagram www.instagram.com/thebehaviournurse The Behaviour Nurse short questionnaire: Cat Behaviour www.vettimes.co.uk/app/uploads/2021/09/Short-Questionnaire-Cat-Behaviour.pdf The Behaviour Nurse short questionnaire: Dog Behaviour www.vettimes.co.uk/app/uploads/2021/09/Short-Questionnaire-Dog-Behaviour.pdf Respect The Lead https://respectthelead.com International Cat Care https://icatcare.org iCat Care Cat Friendly Clinc https://icatcare.org/veterinary/cat-friendly-clinic Fear Free Pets https://fearfreepets.com AVSAB Positive Veterinary Care Position Statement https://avsab.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/01/Positive-Veterinary-Care-Position-Statement-download.pdf Low Stress Handling Dr Sophia Yin https://lowstresshandling.com The Association of Pet Behaviour Counsellors (APBC) www.apbc.org.uk Dogs Trust Welfare crisis www.dogstrust.org.uk/latest/issues-campaigns/dog-welfare-crisis The Association of Pet Dog Trainers (APDT) https://apdt.co.uk The Pet Professional Guild British Isles (PPGBI) https://ppgbi.com The Association of Into Dogs www.intodogs.org IMDT www.imdt.uk.com/find-a-qualified-imdt-trainer K9 Working Heroes The Dog Aggression Ladder http://www.k9workingheroes.co.uk/health/the-dog-aggression-ladder-brightdog-academy-dog-training-shared-link RSPCA: cats body language https://www.rspca.org.uk/adviceandwelfare/pets/cats/behaviour/understanding
