What experts are saying about Veterinary Cooperative Care:

Cooperative Care is the most important modern veterinary care buzzword. This amazing group of expert authors has captured the importance of recognizing and preventing fear, anxiety and stress, and they provide great examples of body language, facial expression, and communication signals that can help a clinician identify how a pet is feeling. This book offers valuable advice to relieve patient stress throughout their entire experience, from arrival to the clinic, examination and returning home; with tips for future visits and how to create a calm experience during end of life protocols. It is a must-read for every veterinary professional so we can finally standardize the respect and care that our animal family members need.

What an amazing book! This work is packed full of useful and important information about cooperative care. In addition, it pulls together the sometimes diverse communities of veterinary professionals, animal trainers, and owners in an inclusive way. There’s so much we can do to make physical care easier and more comfortable for our companion animals, and this book is a fantastic resource. As someone who cares deeply about the experiences of our animals during both necessary and routine care, I highly recommend this work. This one definitely needs to be in every animal lover’s library!
