Cooperative
Vet Care
Training
As a certified professional dog trainer and veterinarian, Dr. Young is uniquely qualified to teach pets how to be well-behaved while their care is delivered. This may be focused on any problem areas- exam, grooming, taking lab samples, etc.
Should you like to start teaching your pet to cooperate for their care, the process will entail a combination of in-clinic and at-home training. The schedule for this will be discussed at an initial virtual appointment to build your pet’s best plan.
The cost of an initial 30-minute virtual consultation is $180.
