The importance of animal behaviour and psychological well-being is increasingly being recognised in the veterinary profession. This new edition of BSAVA Manual of Canine and Feline Behavioural Medicine is designed to be even more practical and user-friendly than the first.

For a range of behavioural presentations, consideration is given to the evaluation of the patient, including any possible underlying disease; evaluation of client attitudes, beliefs and behaviour; risk evaluation; behavioural biology of the condition; acute management protocols; long-term treatment strategies; prognosis; follow-up; and preventive measures.

A special chapter on shelter animals has been added, as this is an area where veterinary support is increasingly sought in both health and husbandry.

An included CD offers client handouts, history-taking forms, detailed behavioural questionnaires for each species, and a referral form.
