New seminar on canine aggression in the practice
Seminars for veterinary professionals begin at the end of January

Animal behaviour specialist Jez Rose is presenting a new seminar for vets and vet nurses, on how to manage canine aggression in the practice.

The seminar, sponsored by Companion Care, will focus on what to tell owners, how to modify behaviour and how to effectively manage aggressive canine patients in the practice.

Jez will address the epidemiology of aggression, and offer real-life solutions for managing and treating aggression in practices.

The seminar is aimed at providing the knowledge and skills required to understand, manage, and prevent dominance and aggression. Three seminar dates are available so far this year, in Bristol (26th January), Oxford (4th January) and Swindon (2nd March). A certificate with CPD hours accredited and license-free behaviour resources are provided as part of the seminar. Tickets can be booked through The Behaviour Company website.

Jez has been presenting regular seminars to the veterinary profession for ten years, and is often asked to speak on aggression and dominance in domestic cats and dogs, stress and anxiety in pets, and enrichment for domestic pets.

He is director of The Behaviour Company and resident behaviour specialist at Vet's Klinic, as well as running his own animal behaviour practice, which receives referrals from veterinary practices nationwide.
