The Husbandry Project
"Dogs simply do not need to fear veterinary clinics, staff, and procedures. With well- executed training, many can instead learn to be comfortable or even happy at the veterinarian, and there can be no better gift to our dogs than a better, more joyful life.
Fear matters in dogs. It is a deeply unpleasant way to live, affecting health and welfare, and can have serious consequences. Veterinary fears can reduce a dog’s access to medical care as well. Because fear of veterinary care is so common, The Academy for Dog Trainers decided to tackle it head-on. Starting in 2016, the Academy produced and tested dog training plans with hundreds of dogs and over multiple phases. In the end, we had a streamlined list of training plans, each honed to work well with most dogs, by most trainers. We also had a standard and useful library of extra steps and extra plans for dogs who need a bit more help".
