Cooperative Veterinary Care

and Husbandry

Teaching guardians how to prepare their dogs for veterinary care in a hospital setting or husbandry at home.

Pawsitive Living Dog Training is here to help!

Cooperative care is an approach that focuses on building trust, communication, and positive experiences with your furry friend during various aspects of their care routine. From grooming sessions to veterinary visits, cooperative care allows for a stress-free and enjoyable experience for both you and your canine companion.

By implementing cooperative care techniques, you are not only ensuring the physical well-being of your dog but also nurturing their emotional well-being. Through positive reinforcement training methods and gradual exposure, we can help your dog develop a sense of calmness and confidence during routine procedures such as nail trims, ear cleanings, or even taking medication. This not only reduces anxiety but also strengthens the bond between you and your furry friend.
