Please note that I do not have personal experience with all the vets & behaviorists listed on this page. I have provided this information solely to help you make informed decisions about your dog. Be sure to do your due diligence when choosing any professional to work with you and your dog.
Certified Applied Animal Behaviorists can provide effective, scientific, state of the art help to understand, prevent, and manage your pet’s behavior.
It makes sense to rule out any medical causes for a dog’s behavior. Thyroid imbalance and tick borne diseases should be ruled out. For thyroid analysis your vet can send blood samples to Dr. Jean Dodd’s Hemopet labs.

If you know of someone to recommend please let me know. My goal is to list pet care professionals who understand the causes and challenges of fear based behaviors in dogs.
