My pet has been acting up lately and I think it might need some help with its anxiety. Are there any suggestions you can give me on what kind of vet behaviorist it needs?

Yes, there are! You can start by searching for a certified veterinary behaviorist (CVB) in your area who specializes in treating anxiety. You can ask your vet for recommendations or look online to search for professionals. If cost is an issue, you could also look into talking to a board certified applied animal behaviorist (CAAB). They don't specialize in anxiety per se but they are knowledgeable and experienced with animal behavior in general.

Yes, there are some key factors to keep in mind when selecting a veterinary behaviorist. Firstly, you should research their qualifications. Do they have formal training and certification in animal behaviorism? Secondly, does the behaviorist have experience working with animals similar to yours? Finally, it is also important to look into the methods used by the behaviorist as this will be an indication of how effective they can be in treating your pet’s anxiety. Good luck!
