We want you to be happy
           with your pet again!

   At Veterinary Behavior Options, we know the pain a badly behaved pet can cause. Our job is to help you understand why your pet does what he does; then, we can devise a reasonable behavior modification plan to manage the problem.

    Dr. Derr has a special interest in the behavior problems of dogs and cats. She has helped hundreds of pet owners effectively manage their pets' conditions.

All the techniques Dr. Derr  recommends for your pet are based on established principles of learning theory, with an emphasis on positive approaches. (To see an example of this approach, click here or here.) VBO never recommends physical punishment, and never advocates the use of pain in any way.

Thank you for considering Veterinary Behavior Options to help solve your pet's behavior problems! We look forward to meeting you and your pet.
