APBC page for vets & VNs

APBC page for vets & VNs A page designed to provide behavioural support and information for vets, vet nurses and other veterinary staff working in small animal and equine practice.

APBC members are able to offer the time and expertise necessary to investigate the causes of unwanted behaviour in companion animals, and outline practical treatment plans that are suitable for their clients' circumstances. The APBC also runs seminars and workshops for its members, veterinarians, and members of the public interested in the field of behaviour therapy.

Join us and Dr James Hunt on 10th June https://bit.ly/4m2a7Tt

Drawing on clinical pain-management experience and research into pain expression, Dr James Hunt will discuss behavioural indicators that may suggest discomfort, practical approaches to communicating pain concerns with veterinary colleagues, and strategies for collaborative case management. The session aims to empower behaviour counsellors to confidently articulate pain-related observations while strengthening interdisciplinary working to improve welfare and clinical outcomes.

Thinking of working as a Clinical Animal Behaviourist (CAB) or Animal Behaviour Technician (ABT)?

The APBC believes that both trainers and behaviourists should be qualified, assessed and regulated.

That is why the APBC is a member of The Animal Behaviour Training Council (www.abtc.org.uk).

Acceptance as a full APBC member via our ABTC approved assessment process means you can register as a CAB (or ABT) with the Animal Behaviour and Training Council.

Dogs Trust are interested in learning the extent to which UK-based veterinary clinics experience elective euthanasia requests based on welfare / behaviour where alternative outcomes might exist.

Insights will help Dogs Trust identify need in this area as well as evaluate how to provide appropriate, timely support where there may be an alternative to euthanasia. We’d really appreciate your help by completing a 3-5minute survey: https://bit.ly/4uMNpTp

Thank you so much! The survey will close end-April.

Even for experienced professionals, managing puppy play or interactions can be challenging.

Play sessions can quickly escalate, creating overstimulated puppies who either prioritise other dogs over their owners or become overwhelmed and defensive, while inadvertently teaching owners to encourage inappropriate “play” that may lead to behavioural difficulties later on.
