Cooperative Injections
Does your dog become agitated anticipating a vaccination or blood draw? By incorporating training into your injection routines, you can help alleviate his/her anxiety.
In this video, KPA CTP Jenni Pfafman is helping her dog become less fearful of injections by asking for simple behaviors that her dog knows well. In between practicing behaviors, Jenni uses a fake syringe to simulate an injection. By alternating between training and injection simulations, Jenni is helping her dog develop a positive association with injections and remain calm when the syringe appears.
