Cooperative care has helped change the face of veterinary care and animal welfare in veterinary and husbandry contexts forever. Well-trained, cooperative procedures reduce stress, increase safety, and increase opportunities for timely care. However, without significant preparation, many pet guardians and professionals often resort to procedures that remove all agency and choice from the animal. There\u2019s a better option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this 4-unit, 5-week class, Tabitha will teach you how cooperative care handling creates cooperative care outcomes even when there\u2019s been little or no time for preparation. She has spent years developing handling skills that work in emergencies and everyday situations. Tabitha honed her approach through her work as both a veterinary technician and a trainer with certifications from KPA, IAABC, Frear Free, and Low-Stress Handling. She is also one of only 30 Designated Veterinary Technician Specialists in Behavior worldwide. She will teach you how to read and respond to body language, develop personalized handling plans, and adapt care based on real-time behavior.
