What is a veterinarian whose practice is limited to behavior?
A veterinarian whose practice is limited to behavior is a veterinarian who only sees behavior cases. They may have completed a residency program or they may have taken additional continuing education courses to increase their knowledge of the subject. Only veterinarians can legally diagnose and treat medical and behavioral problems in animals, including prescribing medications to treat those problems. Many veterinarians who have an interest in animal behavior are members of the American Veterinary Society of Animal Behavior. You access their website at www.avsabonline.
