by Dr Katrin Jahn, DrMedVet, CertVA, MANZCVS(VB), DACVB, DipECAWBM(BM), MRCVS

Every week, Double Board-Certified Veterinary Behaviourist and Veterinarian of over 25 years, Dr. Katrin Jahn provides education, knowledge and inspiration on all things Veterinary Behaviour Medicine aka Veterinary Psychiatry. This show is for fellow Vets, Veterinary Nurses and Pet Care Professionals who want to serve their patients and clients better by integrating Veterinary Behaviour Medicine into their everyday practice. The podcast features up-to-date, informative advice on diagnosing and treating behaviour problems in dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, and other companion animals in a variety of episodes, including interviews with some of the leading minds in Veterinary Behaviour Medicine. In our Case Study and Case De-Brief episodes, Dr. Katrin demonstrates how she approaches and treats Clinical Behaviour Cases on a practical level, and we hear from pet owners who have achieved fantastic results in treating their pets' behaviour problems. In our 15-minute Speed Coaching episodes, Dr Katrin consults with and coaches fellow professionals on Case Management, setting up Veterinary Behaviour Medicine protocols, using Psychopharmaceutical Medications, Career Progression and so much more! If you are a Veterinarian, Veterinary Nurse/Technician or Pet Care Professional and you want to elevate your skillset to the next level, this is the podcast for you! This podcast will provide answers to the following questions and so much more! • How do I safely and effectively use psychopharmacology for my veterinary patients? • What are the best veterinary Pre-Visit Pharmaceuticals? • How does my patient's physical health affect their behavioural health? • What physical diseases should I be screening for in patients that present with behaviour problems? • Why is pain such an important consideration for Behaviour Patients? • How do I treat dogs with Separation Anxiety? • How do I treat dogs with Noise Phobias? • How do I treat cats that are House Soiling? • How do I perform a risk assessment on a Veterinary Behaviour patient? • What are some Behavioural First Aid Strategies I can give to my clients? • How do I manage aggressive dogs in the Veterinary Clinic? • How do I manage aggressive cats in the Veterinary Clinic? • Why am I seeing so many anxious or fearful patients in my practice? • How do I treat dogs and cats with Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome? • How do I treat dogs and cats with Abnormal Repetitive Behaviours? • What diets, supplements and nutraceuticals actually work at reducing stress in veterinary patients?
