Description
Taking a dog’s or cat’s temperature with a traditional rectal thermometer in a clinical or shelter setting… Wish it could be both more efficient and less stressful for the animal? Well, it CAN. Find out how in this conversation between The Association’s Katherine M. Shenar, Jamie Driscoll of Mella Pet Care, and Alex Schechter, DVM. Informed by the Fear Free philosophy that aims to reduce fear, anxiety, and stress in pets, this first-of-its-kind health monitoring tool can be used by shelter veterinary teams, as well as by volunteers and foster parents in the home.
