Clinical Training

You can start this training at any time. You can begin as early as puppyhood or later in life. The advantage of starting early is that the dog gets used to the veterinary clinic and is less likely to become stressed. Often, we only visit the clinic when something unpleasant has to be done to the dog. This can cause the dog to develop a negative association with the clinic, which is very difficult to correct. However, with clinic training, we can still make the experience as bearable as possible by slowly rebuilding trust. During this training, you’ll receive helpful tips and tricks to help your dog become increasingly accustomed to the clinic. “They don’t have to love it, but they can certainly accept it!”
