Fear Free Pets

Medical and husbandry care is important for the health and well being of all pets. However, the treatments we need to perform can be stress inducing for the pet. Even veterinary professionals can find it challenging to perform routine procedures while minimizing stress for pets. As a foster caregiver, pet owner, or shelter or rescue staff member or volunteer, you can help your pet be comfortable with treatments you may have to administer, from applying eye drops to something as simple as pet brushing. The training videos in this class were created for Maddie's Fund® by Fear Free. Although many of the strategies presented can work equally well for cats, the emphasis in the videos is on dogs. 

This course has been pre-approved for 0.75 Certified Animal Welfare Administrator continuing education credits by The Association for Animal Welfare Advancement.
