Canine aggression is a serious problem and a threat to human health. Veterinarians deal with dogs daily and usually have the ability to read and understand canine signaling to avoid injury to themselves and their staff but are unaware of how to use this knowledge to help their clients and patients. 

This course will help veterinarians label and utilize what they already know about canine aggression to communicate this knowledge to clients and staff, identify aggressive dogs, and offer a diagnosis, prognosis, basic management and treatment plans.
