At Pleasant Ridge Pet Hospital, we understand that a visit to the veterinarian can be stressful for both pets and their owners. That's why we prioritize Fear Free handling techniques to create a calm and positive experience for every animal that walks through our doors. Multiple staff members have completed thorough certification of Fear Free module training. Our staff utilizes gentle, low-stress methods to help pets feel safe and secure during examinations and procedures. By focusing on understanding animal behavior and using positive reinforcement, we minimize anxiety and fear, allowing for more effective care and a better overall experience.
Our Fear Free approach involves several strategies, including the use of soothing voices, comfortable environments, and the incorporation of treats and praise. We also tailor our handling techniques to the individual needs of each pet, ensuring that their specific anxieties are addressed. Whether it’s a nervous cat or an excitable dog, our compassionate team is dedicated to fostering trust and making each visit a more enjoyable one for both pets and their owners.
