It’s been such an amazing ride to have started this all with you. The Dogma family and I will miss you!!

Here's a great article about training techniques from the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB). Give it a read!

Hello! We are Behavior Vets. Welcome to our page!

We are a practice that focuses on excellent client care, both human and animal. We are also an educational resource for professionals and the private sector. We believe in and stand by the positional statement of the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior (AVSAB), as you will see in the image.

That being said, we are also a safe space to engage in conversations with folks, even when we disagree. We cannot move forward in what we care about by operating in an echo chamber. We must engage all sides in order to make the difference we want to see in the world. This is how we work with our clients who come to us with their dogs on prong collars or e-collars. We address them with respect and grace, while helping them see the value of moving towards a force free way of engaging with their pets. We also engage with other professionals in the same way, regardless of background.

Communication is how to change the world.

Here are two recent articles where one of our doctors was quoted on why we DO NOT use or recommend equipment such as prong collars, choke collars, or electronic collars when working with our clients:
