Written with the busy practitioner in mind, this text offers clear diagnostic criteria, differential diagnoses, and step-by-step treatment protocols that can be immediately implemented in clinical settings.

Each problem is presented in a structured format that facilitates quick reference during consultations while providing the depth of information necessary for complex cases. The book emphasizes a holistic, welfare-centered approach to behavioral medicine, recognizing that successful outcomes require collaboration between veterinarians, owners, and when necessary, veterinary behaviorists or certified behavior consultants.
