Become a Pet-Centered Practice and Behavior Center

When your clients ask your staff a question about pet behavior, how does your staff respond?

You may have implemented written protocols for how your staff responds to preventive medicine questions but what about answering pet behavior questions?

When you standardize staff communications, you protect your clients and your practice from potential harm. The Animal Behavior Network allows you to immediately implement standardized preventive behavior communications to clients. 

The monthly investment I make in the Animal Behavior Network is the best thing I do compared to everything else I do in my practice. -  Dr. Lauren Keating, Natural Bridge Animal Hospital, Virginia -

How? You partner with Dr. Rolan Tripp and the Network.

1.  Your practice receives Dr. Rolan Tripp's Pet Perception Management™ Manual  proven over the last decade in the general practice to educate staff and clients.

2.  Your practice provides one year behavior courses via email and online library to staff and clients that arrives in their homes your practice name and phone number in the email banners.

3.  Dr. Rolan Tripp and the Animal Behavior Network serve your practice as Behavior Affiliates and an Education Center to help you address aggression, inappropriate elimination, separation anxiety, fears, obsessive compulsive behaviors, and general unruliness.

Just ask any of our participating veterinarians nationwide. Call 1-800-372-3706 to request a list of DVM references. Call our DVMs yourself to learn how their practices are benefiting.

Does your staff give clients behavior and training advice based on personal experience on what they've heard from a family member or friend, or seen on television? Yikes!

When you enroll in the Animal Behavior Network, you immediately gain quality control and authorize your team to only share what's found on the Network. You improve an often ignored but very important part of your practice - how the pet perceives the visit.

A Network Veterinary Behavior Technicians is assigned to your practice to answer staff and client behavior questions by email and phone.

Why participate in the Network? Pet parents do not think they need this education but when they receive it from your practice (as a perk - complimentary), you gain goodwill, better clients and happier, better behaved patients It's nearly impossible to charge for giving behavior advice. There just isn't enough time to educate clients effectively in an exam room. However, every client and team member benefits from learning up-to-date gentle methods for modifying pet behaviors.

Network Courses remind pet parents to bring fasted, hungry pets to your practice, and offers other suggestions to pet parents on how to create positive pet perceptions of the veterinary visit. Read, Creating a Kinder, Gentler Veterinary Visit.

Veterinary practices nationwide are now meeting American Animal Hospital Association (AAHA) and AAFP (American Association or Feline Practitioners) Behavior Standards, through AnimalBehavior.Net education and services.

Veterinary teams, Pet Professionals and Pet Parents learn from Network Courses how to create stress-free veterinary visits for family pets.

Customized,  in-home behavior modification programs are available to your clients following a Pet Behavior History Analysis.

An Analysis gives pet parents and veterinarians probable causes for unwanted pet behaviors plus a prognosis for improvement if pet parent chooses to proceed with veterinary behavior treatment combined with behavior modification and education from the Network.

For veterinarians facing difficult pet behavior cases, Dr. Rolan Tripp's Behavior Practice becomes an extension of your practice, providing the support you need with behavioral treatment plans and medications.
