Requirements & Information

All dogs must be up to date on DHLPP + rabies vaccinations prior to the first class and all age appropriate boosters. Vaccination records will need to be submitted before the initial class.

Dogs will not be permitted into class sessions if they have had recent diarrhea, vomiting, wheezing, sneezing, or coughing until cleared by a veterinarian.

If your dog is showing signs of significant stress, fear, or reactivity, please contact our certified trainer to discuss a more tailored private training program for counterconditioning + desensitization.

For Veterinary Professionals

As an Urgent Care Physician Assistant (and KPA-CPT), I understand the unique challenges within medical clinics and the importance of having trusted and skilled resources to provide support.

Better Vet Visits helps to create:

  • Calm, confident dogs + prepared pet parents

  • Improved clinic efficiency and decreased frustration

  • A safer environment with less risk of injury for your patients + your staff

  • Decreased need for chemical or physical restraints, improving animal welfare and reducing costs/risks of pharmacologic sedatives.
