"Pets can exhibit behavioral problems that impair the human-animal bond, but behavior changes are also how veterinarians can tell whether dogs or cats have an illness or pain or are experiencing emotional distress."

What’s Next?
After receiving the immediate results of your Pet Behavior Health Screening, if you decide to purchase a Pet Behavior Analysis, we’ll schedule your teleconsultation and ask you to complete a more detailed online pet behavior history in advance of the appointment.
Before your appointment, an Animal Behavior Consultant (ABC) will obtain from your pet's veterinarian any laboratory findings and current medications to discuss with you during the Analysis teleconsultation.
During the Analysis appointment, the VBC will video-view your pet while speaking with you. Your pet is better evaluated when no strangers are in the home and when they’re in a familiar location that feels safe.
The purpose of the Analysis is to identify sources of your pet's stress and other factors influencing your pet's behavior, training results, and health.
The VBC will provide a prognosis for improved behavioral health, training, and medical symptoms if you continue with an ongoing paid
Pet Behavior Case Supervision and Plan. The VBC will estimate the number of months needed for the best results.
You may request Dr. Tripp as your VBC. View his bio here.
Unsure if your pet’s behavior or health issues are complex enough for an Analysis by a VBC?
We understand. So here’s a suggestion...
Complete the free Pet Behavioral Health Screening. If you request it (in "Contact Us"), a Pet Happiness team member will reach out to review your pet's screening results and answer any questions about next steps.
Typically, attempts to measure stress in animals have involved biochemical testing of body fluids, such as serum cortisol.
However, cortisol varies in the bloodstream. This measurement can reflect the immediate stress such as a pet being held down to collect a blood sample. The goal is to identify long-term psychological stress tha affects the pet's behavior, training results, and gradually degrades the immune system, causing medical disease.
The online Pet Behavior Health Screening completed by the pet parent is a more reliable indication of psychological stress.
