Holly Woolman-Lane joins the APBC as an Associate Clinical Animal Behaviourist (CAB) member.

We give our members a voice and enable behaviourists to connect, share and solve problems together. Our membership allows access to focused support groups where members share their knowledge and discuss any issues facing behaviourists, whatever their role or membership type. Our members meet and gain insight and support from other, like-minded professionals.

Join us and Sue Dyson on Tuesday at 8pm!

The APBC recognises a strong link between the Veterinary Surgeon and the Behaviourist in all cases, not least because of the link between medical conditions and behavioural symptoms.
