Initial Consultation - What to Expect (2 hours): 

The initial consultation with Dr. Johnson takes a deep-dive into the behavioral issue at hand.  Dr. johnson examines the Pet and its People, including:

• A review of your Pet’s past & present history

• Exploring your Pet’s relationships among family members (pet-and-people)

• Discussing medical history

• Investigating the behavior profile. 

• Addressing Pet-Parents goals and lifestyle.

Following the initial behavior discovery, Dr. Johnson will discuss your pet’s diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment options.  

All treatment plans are created with kindness and compassion, using a force-free and fear-free approach.  The treatment plan, created with the pet-parent, includes:

• Safety and Behavior Management

• Behavior modification, enrichment and education

• Medication therapy recommendations (if appropriate).  

Behavior is dynamic and each treatment plan is unique, just like you and your Pet. Together, a customized plan is created that works best for you and your family. 

The initial consultation includes 2 months of ongoing support via email with Dr. Johnson. 

After 2 months a “Re-Check” appointment is required to continue care. Pending the severity and fluidity of the behavior issue, more frequent “Re-Checks” may be recommended.
