Fears, phobias and anxieties are among the most common
behavior problems seen in companion animals. Often
these problems go unrecognized or the behaviors are attributed
to other anthropomorphic motivations, such as “stubbornness”.
Fears and phobias can also contribute to other behavior
problems such as aggression, barking and destructiveness.
In this webinar, we’ll discuss the components of
fear, what motivates or “causes” its expression,
how to recognize fear (there are many less obvious signs),
how fears develop, and how to prevent, manage and resolve
fearful behavior problems.
This
class will be valuable for any animal professional who
deals with fearful animals. Whether you work with animals
as a groomer, doggie day care provider, trainer, veterinary
professional or behavior consultant, you will regularly
encounter fearful animals. Knowing how to recognize subtle
signs of fear, how to reduce fearfulness in animals as
well as what is involved in resolving more serious fear
problems will make your work more effective, more efficient,
safer for people and animals and more humane.
Any pet professional can benefit from this course.

Here’s what previous attendees have said
about our webinars:
"This is absolutely my favorite way to learn as
this media has two options, e.g. real time and replays
to meet scheduling conflicts. It also gives the attendee
the opportunity to digest information before the next class
which is so much better than attending an all day seminar
as you can only absorb so much info. The discussion
of actual case studies is priceless. Instructors
are excellent and very accommodating. Thanks again
for a wonderful learning experience. I am looking
forward to many more." Rita P.
"Suzanne and Dan are great presenters. I learned
more from this webinar than I have from several books and
DVD's. It is almost like being in the room with them-
minus the expensive plane ticket. I highly recommend
the Animal Behavior Associates webinars to anyone who needs
to earn continuing education units to maintain their certifications,
or anyone interested in their pet's behavior. " Crystal
