Behaviour

Happiness is one of the greatest gifts we can give our pets and sometimes challenging behaviours can actually be a sign of stress, anxiety or other emotional issues. We always give extended hour-long consultations for behavioural assessment so we can thoroughly assess. If your pet is exhibiting any of the following symptoms, consider making an appointment so we can work out if there is an underlying medical or behavioural explanation which will then allow us to develop the best management plan for you and your furry friend.
