Telecourse: Risk Assessment of Aggressive Animals

 

Instructors: Suzanne Hetts, Ph.D., CAAB and Daniel Q. Estep, Ph.D., CAAB

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.

The course comes with class notes and recommended readings. You will receive a link via email a couple of days before class. You can download the notes with the password provided in the email.
