When your nickname is Safety Sarah, the Halloween costume practically picks itself. 🚧🎃

Around TVBC, Sarah Swing is affectionately known as “Safety Sarah,” and she takes that title seriously. So seriously, in fact, that she was gifted her very own traffic cone costume for Halloween! 😂

This week, Sarah led our team through safety protocols for responding to situations involving dog aggression, helping everyone stay prepared and keeping safety a priority for our patients, clients, and staff.

Because when Safety Sarah says safety comes first, she means it. Even if she has to become a traffic cone to make her point.

Happy National Cat Day! 🐈💜

Every cat deserves a safe, loving home where they can feel comfortable being themselves.

For some cats, adjusting to a new home, navigating relationships with other pets, or feeling comfortable around people can be challenging – especially after the changes that come with shelter life.

At The Veterinary Behavior Center, we help cats and their families work through concerns like fear, anxiety, aggression, and house-soiling. Through individualized veterinary behavior care, we can help guardians better understand their cats and support their well-being.

Today, we're celebrating cats everywhere, especially those waiting for their forever homes! 🐾

**Have a rescue cat? Tell us about them in the comments!**

Happy Vet Tech Appreciation Week! 🐾💙

This week, we're celebrating not only our RVTs, but also our Behavior Therapy Technicians (BTTs), who also play a crucial role in the success of every behavior case we see!

Our amazing RVTs and BTTs bring a unique combination of skills and expertise that goes beyond traditional veterinary care and dog training. Their knowledge, compassion, and dedication make such a difference for our patients and the people who love them.

TVBC wouldn't be the same without this incredible team! Thank you for all your hard work and dedication to helping animals and their people succeed. 💙🐾

Did you know veterinary behavior medicine isn't just for dogs and cats? 🦜

Birds can experience behavior concerns, too – and understanding those concerns often means looking beyond the behavior itself.

Excessive vocalization, biting, and feather-damaging behavior can involve a combination of medical, environmental, social, and learning-related factors.

At The Veterinary Behavior Center, we also see avian patients for behavior consultations! Our approach considers the individual patient and the circumstances surrounding their behavior to help guide appropriate recommendations.

Have a feathered family member or patient? We'd love to help you learn more about veterinary behavior care.

Ever Googled something your dog does and ended up with 14 completely different explanations? 🙋‍♀️

The internet has no shortage of opinions about dog behavior.

But barking, growling, hiding, or reacting can have different underlying causes. The behavior you see is only one piece of the picture.

That's why veterinary behavior care looks at the individual animal, their history, health, environment, and the circumstances surrounding the behavior.

Google can be a starting point. It just can't tell you the whole story about *your* dog.

What's the most confusing dog behavior question you've ever Googled?

Management deserves more credit.
Cross the street. Close the blinds. Use the barrier. Take the quieter route.
These choices may look simple, but changing the environment can reduce exposure to situations an animal isn’t ready to navigate.
Management doesn’t mean giving up on training or treatment. It can work alongside other parts of a behavior plan–and skipping an unnecessary challenge can be a completely reasonable choice.
There’s value in knowing when the environment can do some of the work.

We spend a lot of time talking about behavior around here, but today we want the very specific details.

Pick one:

Current obsession?
Strongest opinion?
Weirdest habit?

Tell us about your dog in the comments. Bonus points for extreme specificity.

We’ll start: Our team member’s poodle, Walter, BOLTS out the front door and makes a beeline for his favorite tree. Every. Single. Time.

Why? He remains convinced that today will finally be the day he catches a squirrel.

His success rate is currently 0%. His confidence remains 100%. 🐾
