Ever wonder if your patient has a behavioral problem or a medical problem? Would you be surprised to find out that up to 82 percent of dogs referred to veterinary behaviorists by veterinarians have discomfort or pain?
In this webinar, Lisa Radosta, DVM, DACVB, will explain that, in her practice, an estimated 50 percent of patients have a contributing disorder that is not behavioral in origin. Attendees will learn the most common clinical signs that can be confusing, the easiest ways to rule in or out a primary psychiatric disease, and quick and easy approaches to treatment
