This comprehensive guide to the diagnosis and treatment of dog and cat behavior problems details a new scientific approach which was first developed in the United States almost thirty years ago and is now being practiced by veterinarians and other pet behavior problem specialists in many countries throughout the world. The current scientific understanding of each behavioral problem is reviewed before specific advice is offered on differential diagnosis, possible causal factors and the most effective behavioral and pharmacological treatments available. Annotated diagrams are provided for each of the major behavior problems, summarizing key points, so that information can be obtained both quickly and easily when needed. Written by an acknowledged expert on animal behavior, and describing the common dog and cat problems encountered by veterinarians, this book will prove an essential resource for all small animal practices as well as a readily understandable introduction to the pet behavior problem field for interested pet owners, breeders, animal shelter personnel, dog trainers etc.
