Canine Aggression: A Veterinary Behaviorist's Perspective
From the 2024 IAABC Foundation Animal Behavior Conference:
Aggression in dogs is the number one reason caregivers seek help from a board-certified veterinary behaviorist. Aggression can have many causes, from negative emotional states and protective emotions to underlying medical causes that are the reason for and contributing factor to the behavior. In this presentation, both medical and behavioral differentials for canine aggression will be explored. Additionally, a comprehensive treatment plan will be presented, including highlights from specific cases.
