Pet Behavioral Counseling
Behavior Consultation for Pets in Tulsa & Broken Arrow
Even the most loving pets can sometimes develop behaviors that are confusing, frustrating, or disruptive. At Animal Medical and Surgical Hospital, we offer expert pet behavioral counseling to help you address unwanted behaviors and build a stronger bond with your dog or cat.
Whether your pet is acting out, struggling with anxiety, or showing signs of aggression, our veterinary team will work with you to understand the cause and develop a personalized treatment plan that fits your pet’s needs—and your lifestyle.
When to Seek Behavioral Help
Behavior issues can stem from medical conditions, stress, improper socialization, or even boredom. Common problems we help with include:
- Separation anxiety
- Aggression toward people or other animals
- House soiling or inappropriate elimination
- Excessive barking or vocalizing
- Destructive chewing or scratching
- Fear of loud noises (e.g., fireworks, thunderstorms)
- Leash reactivity
- Obsessive behaviors (e.g., tail chasing, over-grooming)
If your pet’s behavior is interfering with your daily life—or causing stress for your pet—don’t wait. Behavioral issues often worsen over time if left unaddressed.
Our Approach to Pet Behavior Counseling
Our first step is to rule out any underlying medical causes. Conditions like pain, thyroid disorders, or cognitive decline can cause behavior changes that may appear to be “bad behavior.” Once medical issues are addressed or ruled out, we’ll take a deeper look at your pet’s environment, routine, and history.
Each behavior consultation includes:
A comprehensive review of your pet’s medical and behavioral history
A physical exam to assess overall health
A customized behavior modification plan
Training techniques and at-home strategies
Recommendations for medications or supplements (if appropriate)
We may also recommend follow-up visits, training referrals, or collaboration with professional trainers or veterinary behaviorists in more complex cases.
