About Veterinary Behavior |

AVSAB promotes and supports veterinarians who treat behavioral problems suffered by their animal patients. AVSAB derives its humane behavior modification techniques from the field of applied animal behavior where veterinary and behavioral science professionals specialize in applying scientific principles, learned from the study of domestic and wild animal behavior, learning theory, and counseling, to companion animals. In the clinic, we use these techniques to help owners solve their pets' behavior problems. Medication, which only veterinarians can prescribe, is occasionally used in conjunction with behavior modification therapy. Veterinarians can also diagnose medical conditions that can affect a pet's behavior.
