Selecting a suitable behaviourist

 

 

Finding a trusted and suitably qualified behaviourist can be tricky. Sadly there are no regulations in the UK as to who can call themselves a pet behaviourist, behavioural therapist or behaviour counsellor. With the help of our in-house, qualified behaviourist we have put together the following list of recognised registers, in order to help you find someone who is appropriately trained and uses up-to-date positive methods.
