When it comes to creating Fear Free veterinary visits, thinking about a patient’s individual needs is critical. Communicating those needs to the pet’s owner is also very important, as many of the pet’s preferences and behavioral tendencies carry over into other aspects of the pet’s life and future veterinary visits.
As somewhat of a client-friendly variation of a pet’s emotional record, use this digitally fillable or printable Fear Free Report Card to help connect with the client and ensure they go home with an understanding of their pet’s needs and emotional health while at the veterinarian.
Use this report card to take your grooming service to the next level. This report card lets your clients know you value their pet and strive to give them the most Fear Free grooming experience possible. You can mark what their pet enjoyed, what treats you gave them, any sensitive areas they may have, and even additional behaviors owners can work on to make their next grooming experience even better.
This report card can help you educate your training clients and help increase compliance. Mark what treats and activities their pet enjoys, what behaviors and ques they already know, and what behaviors they should work on.
Completing the Fear Free Animal Trainer Program allows trainers to work in partnership with veterinary teams to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress and improve an animal’s emotional wellbeing during veterinary care and home care. This certification program is designed to give qualified animal trainers the knowledge and tools required to begin implementing Fear Free techniques with their clients’ pets at the veterinary hospital, through in-clinic training classes for puppies and kittens, and in day-to-day training of animals in the home.
Trainers who complete the Fear Free Animal Trainer Certification Program will acquire the skills to manage and handle dogs and cats alongside the veterinary team during veterinary visits and care to ease the pet’s apprehension regarding exams, procedures, and other care. The techniques may also be used in a home setting for carrying out or administering specific veterinarian-prescribed care plans or routine care like grooming. Most important, the Fear Free animal trainer is equipped to prepare pets for what to expect at the veterinary clinic so they have an enjoyable, stress-free experience.
By collaborating with and complementing the veterinary team’s efforts, the trainer can better provide preventive services and partner with the veterinary team to address training and behavior concerns, working from a whole health concept and with the oversight of the pet’s vet. In doing so, the pet and pet parents have a higher quality, unified team providing quality, complete care.
The purchase of the Fear Free Animal Trainer Certification Program provides you with an annual membership for the program, which requires an annual renewal fee and completion of additional annual CE to maintain your membership.
After becoming certified, it’s not just about the how you implement the Fear Free strategies you have learned, but also how you market your newly earned certification. Being certified not only helps you practice better medicine, but it tells your clients and potential clients that you’re a step above the competition. In this podcast, we talk about how to use social media, video, email, and more to market your certification and communicate with clients.
