Aggression is one of the most common and serious complaints
heard by veterinarians, behavior consultants and trainers.
The first thing that these owners need is an unbiased assessment
of the risk that their animal presents to others. Owners
need these assessments to make informed decisions about
what to do about the problem. In this 90 minute class we’ll
discuss the scientific basis for risk assessments, a variety
of assessment tools currently available and what we’ve
found to be helpful over the last 25 years. We’ll
also discuss how to talk to clients about the results of
the assessment and how to help them make decisions about
their aggressive animal. Finally we’ll discuss some
other contexts for risk assessment including assessing
animals at shelters or in rescue situations and assessments
for legal proceedings.
This class will be valuable for any animal professional
who deals with potentially aggressive animals including
veterinarians, veterinary technicians and other veterinary
staff members, dog trainers, behavior consultants, shelter
and rescue workers, groomers, pet sitters, pet day care
providers and boarding facility workers. Whether or not
you do assessments yourself, you should be aware of what
assessments can and cannot do and what means of assessment
are currently available.
