When punishment is used incorrectly, it will appear unpredictable and confusing, so many pets become anxious or
fearful around the owner that administers the punishment.When punishment is used in an attempt to train an animal that is already afraid or anxious, its fear and anxiety are likely to worsen and may lead to aggression.
Owners need to know that a dog bite can lead to the euthanizing of their dog, as well as it can traumatize the child for the rest of their life, making them
fearful of all dogs, and not knowing how to overcome their anxiety
around them.
This may also include how a dog's emotional well - being can play a role in all aspects of its life and health, including veterinary care, how decreasing fear, anxiety, and stress is beneficial to the patient and
owner both during the veterinary visit and at home, a focus on Fear Free applications pre - and post-veterinary visit, successful case studies / stories of how a dog went from
fearful to Fear Free during or throughout the course of a single or series of veterinary visits, positive experiences working with a Fear Free certified veterinary professional or anything that highlights how Fear Free and what it stands for is all
around better for staff, patients, and clients.
