Does your dog growl at people? Does your cat urinate on your bed? Is your horse hand shy? Does your bird chew at its feathers? You are not alone! Behavior problems are not uncommon in pets. Animal behavior problems strain the human animal relationship, cause emotional stress for the owner and the pet and all too often cause the pet to be given up. In fact, in the United States there are more dogs and cats relinquished to humane societies and shelters for behavior problems than for any other reason. Unfortunately, many of these animals are subsequently euthanized.
Dr. Radosta is dedicated to healing the human-animal relationship and improving the quality of life of pet animals through the practice of behavioral medicine. She is a board certified veterinary behaviorist (Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists). Board certified veterinary behaviorists are the only true specialists in veterinary behavior.
Many behavior problems including aggression, thunderstorm phobia, separation anxiety, unruly behavior, house-soiling, urine marking and compulsive behavior can be treated effectively. By changing your pet’s behavior you can improve the quality of your pet’s life as well as your own. Don’t give up, there is help.
