People often ask what the difference is between an animal behaviorist and a trainer. A board certified animal behaviorist is educated in biology, neuroscience, sensation and perception, behavior, psychology, and much more! We observe your animal’s behavior and take into consideration all factors that could be influencing what the animal is experiencing and then propose a plan to help manage or modify that behavior. We work with your veterinarian and trainer to optimize your animals care.
This applies to all animals, not just horses! 🐎 🐕 🐈 🦜
