Contributing to Your Pet’s Positive Development

Just like children, pets need guidance as they grow to feel safe and develop positive relationships with family members. If your pet has persistent issues, behavioral modification for dogs and cats is available through your veterinary hospital near Saratoga. These steps will help you foster positive development in your pet.

Potty training is one of the most important things you will do with your pet. While kittens generally adapt to using a litter box very quickly, puppies need more time. Consistency and positive reinforcement are very important while learning. Socialization is another essential part of development. Bringing your puppy to obedience classes, the dog park, and to visit friends with dogs is important in the very early part of a dog’s life. Before socializing your puppy, talk to your veterinarian about necessary vaccinations. A healthy development plan and dietary recommendations are available at your veterinary hospital. Call your local veterinary hospital near Saratoga to inquire about a kitten package or puppy package to help you affordably meet the developmental needs of your growing animal.
