A consultation will
usually take place in your home. This allows me to see animals in their
own environment and there is more opportunity to observe the 'problem'
behaviour.
An average consultation
will take between one and half and two hours, during this time I will
go through the animal's history with you, ideally all household members
will be present whilst the case history is compiled. This tends to be
lengthy process, every animal and every situation are different, hence
the need for expert advice to pinpoint the root of the problem. I need
to ensure that everyone understands and is happy. During consultation
I will give an explanation as to why the behaviour has developed into
a problem and give some initial advice.
After the consultation,
I will then prepare a written behaviour modification plan, which you
should receive within a week of the consultation. The success of the
plan does depend upon your commitment. The plan may produce rapid resolution
in some instances but more often requires time and commitment on the
part of all family members. A copy of the report will be sent to your
veterinary surgeon. A single consultation is usually sufficient with
follow up telephone support to ensure that you are happy and that all
is progressing.
The cost of consultation
and report is a one off fee of £85.
