A comprehensive guide to diagnosing and treating canine and feline behaviour problems in clinical practice

Blackwell’s Five-Minute Veterinary Consult Clinical Companion: Canine and Feline Behavior, Third Edition equips practitioners with practical, evidence-based strategies to diagnose, treat, and prevent behavioural issues in dogs and cats. Fully updated with new content, including behaviour screening protocols, client handouts, and videos, this highly practical resource is tailored to meet the demands of modern veterinary practice.

The third edition introduces a reorganised format enabling rapid access to key information on prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and life-stage-specific behaviour concerns. A new behaviour screening section equips practitioners with tip sheets, quick-start algorithms, and problem-solving strategies for common complaints. The newly added QR codes offer easy access to visual resources that reinforce learning and support client communication.

Providing detailed guidance on integrating behavioural medicine seamlessly into routine patient care, Blackwell’s Five-Minute Veterinary Consult Clinical Companion: Canine and Feline Behavior:

  • Provides actionable solutions to real-world behaviour challenges, tailored for general practitioners and veterinary technicians
  • Supports practitioners in addressing a wide range of behaviour-related challenges, including begging, roaming, anxiety, aggression, compulsive disorders, vocalisation, and urine marking
  • Includes in-depth history forms, appendices on pharmacology, and resources for learning and behaviour modification
  • Contains new research, expanded chapters, and the latest insights into veterinary behavioural medicine

Covering everything from preventing issues in newly adopted pets to managing complex geriatric behaviour problems, the third edition of Blackwell’s Five-Minute Veterinary Consult Clinical Companion: Canine and Feline Behavior remains an essential resource for small animal veterinarians, veterinary technicians, and veterinary students.
