Webinar - Recognising Pain in Dogs

Dr. Debbie Gross Torraca will discuss how to recognize pain in dogs that can lead to aggressive behaviour!

Debbie Gross has authored many chapters in veterinary textbooks, and writes for professional journals as well as magazines dedicated to the dog enthusiast. She is a regular contributor for Clean Run, Dog Sport, Working Dog Digest, Dogs Naturally, and various breed magazines. You may have seen her on Good Morning America or heard her on Ask Martha’s Vet with Marty Goldstein. Aggression and other negative canine behaviors are often assumed to possess a behavioral base.

This webinar will assist the trainer/owner in identifying painful behaviours, their ramifications on a dogs movement and behaviour, and how to address them.
