Veterinarian + Behavior Consultations $450 per appointment Purchase required to enroll

At AGDT 76 W85th Lower Level

When you are struggling with a behavior issue that may have an underlying medical component, it can be very difficult to know where to turn for advice. Should you go to your vet? Should you go to your trainer? Do you need to go to both? Can you trust them to communicate with one another? To make matters worse, all of the titles that trainers give themselves are confusing. Is this guy really a behaviorist? What does that mean? Is this a reasonable cost?
You shouldn’t have to waste half your life reading crummy articles online or burn through your savings account trying out every option in town, only to fail over and over again and watch your behavior issue worsen. We know firsthand how stressful this can be, and we were eager to find a solution.
Introducing Veterinarian + Behavior Consultations!
