 Learning Streams

Learning Concepts

These modules focus on foundational ideas that are the building blocks for how learning works in dogs and cats.  Understanding these concepts will equip any pet parent or professional with essential knowledge for being a good pet teacher.  

Training Tutorials

These short modules focus on the "how to" of teaching your pet specific skills. 

Rx:  Behavioral Therapies

These advanced, skill-based courses walk you through how to implement specific, detailed therapies needed for treatment plans of behavioral disorders. 

Problem Behaviors

 Explore the ins and outs of different behavioral problems and diagnoses - how to identify them, treat them, and think about them. 

Preventative Behavioral Wellness

Set your pet up for success with the learning stream devoted to everything you need to know about how to be a prepared and educated pet parent.  

Enrichment

Enrichment is about increasing your pet's physical and mental stimulation, behavioral diversity, and choice.  It is essential for preventative behavioral wellness as well as treatment plans.

Psychiatry

Questions about medications, supplements or how we use either in our veterinary population?  This learning stream contains the practical information needed when utilizing psychopharmacology with your animal. 

Health

These modules include content that is relevant to your pet's health, from how to teach your cat to take their inhaler to how stress effects the body.  

Kids & Babies

Parents (and parents-to-be) have special considerations when planning for and managing a household with pets and kids.  Learn how to keep everyone safe and comfortable with a multi-species household.

care to elevate behavior to the next level.
