"How will they remember me?" Join the Amys and their enchanting guest Dr. Sarah Kuhlo, Veterinary Services Manager at Ceva Animal Health, as they discuss pheromones and their role in creating the ultimate Calm Clinic experience for pets and their people.
Chemical communication is the oldest, most common, and most important form of intra-species communication used by most animals. Semiochemicals, such as pheromones, send powerful chemical "signals" that affect behavior. ThunderWorksĀ® and FELIWAYĀ® products are species-specific synthetic formulations of calming pheromones. Their use in veterinary settings and beyond, is proven to assist with environmental familiarization and emotional stabilization, leading to decreased fear, anxiety, and stress in dogs and cats.
Can humans detect the presence of dog/cat-specific pheromones? How can calming pheromones help you gain more trust from pets and their guardians? How does the Calm Clinic approach promote increased overall physical and emotional health? Are synthetic calming pheromones available for humans š?

The Secret Lives of Veterinary Behaviorists - Cold Callin'
10 Sep 2023
00:20:49
The Amys introduce you to the secret world of veterinary behavior, and reveal a bit about their personal lives. Did you know there are fewer than 100 board-certified veterinary behaviorists in the whole world?
Get to know the Amys and hear about their most interesting cases, how they became veterinary behaviorists, and what it's like to work in a veterinary behavior clinic.
The American College of Veterinary Behaviorists (ACVB) is the certifying board for veterinarians who are specialty trained to advance the behavioral health of animals through research, science-based behavior education, and the practice of clinical behavioral medicine.

Do you know what costs A LOT more than a bottle of CBD oil? A trip to the ER. Join the Amys and their mentor, Dr. Lisa Radosta, as they clear the smokescreen and hash out the science regarding the use of cannabis products in veterinary medicine.
The market is flooded with so-called quick-fix solutions to common pet behavior problems. And, when pet parents are desperately searching for answers, it can be challenging to navigate the barrage of messaging and pseudoscience available at their fingertips. Given the inconsistencies in policy and legislation, and societyās differing ideologies and moral considerations regarding the use of cannabis, the lines are further blurred and the truth even more allusive. Alas, our best option is to do what we do best - follow the science! Ā Whatās actually contained in the CBD products that are marketed to pet parents? Is there any scientific evidence that CBD products treat our petās behavioral concerns when administered according to labeled instructions? Are Certificates of Analysis verifying a productās quality, safety, and regulatory compliance required for every CBD product available on the market?
Itās time to clear the air and set the record straight. Grab a cocktail and get up to speed on the latest buzzzzzz during episode 12 of the Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys veterinary behavior podcast.Ā

Have you ever wondered what itās like to be a dolphin trainer? Join the Amys for a deep dive into the world of aquatic and exotic animal training with Ashley Conlin, IAABC CDBC, IAABC ADT, and owner of Pets Behave Dog Training in sunny Niceville, Florida, as they discuss the most important element in every training relationship - TRUST.Ā
Before shifting her focus to dogs, Ashley worked with dolphins, stingrays, sharks, sea turtles, alligators, and birds in zoos and aquariums around the world. She knows all about the patience, learning theory, and creativity required when conditioning dolphins to station for a blood draw. Letās be honest, you canāt put a shock collar on a dolphin.Ā
So, why are some dog ātrainersā still using outdated, inhumane techniques and promoting disproven, unscientific theories to justify their methods? Why is it even allowed? When will the dog training industry as a whole, wake up and smell the big, stinky bucket of thawed fish and squid that is aversive and punishment-based training? When will we ban the use of fear, force, and pain in favor of science, trust, and FUN?
Grab your wetsuit and a cocktail, as we explore the curiosities of cetacean communication and behavior during episode 11 of the Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys veterinary behavior podcast. (Or, should I say āPodācast? š¤)

Join the Amys as they discuss Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CDS), a common age-related neurodegenerative disorder characterized by gradual and progressive cognitive decline in dogs and cats, similar to Alzheimer's disease in humans.
The Amys discuss cognition, and how changes in awareness and responsiveness to stimuli impact our pet's memory and behavior. They cover the physical changes that occur in the brain that lead to decline, and, the intimate connection between pain and systemic illness.Ā
What is inflammaging? Can I screen my dog for CDS at home? What management strategies can help to keep aging pets safe and comfortable? Can a combination of canine neuro-specific diets and supplements, enrichment, and training impact the progression of the disease?Ā

Join the Amys and their cat-tastic guest, Tabitha Kucera, RVT, KPA-CPT, CCBC, VTS (behavior), and owner of Chirrups and Chatter Behavior Consulting and Training in Cleveland, Ohio, as they pounce, feet first (am I righting?), into the dynamics of cat behavior and intercat aggression. Ā
Misconceptions, myths, and generalizations about cat behavior have resulted in misleading and harmful labels that leave kitties in the dark when it comes to standards for behavioral wellness, quality of life, and cooperative care. And, when the dynamics of a multicat environment echo a blockbuster battle - a fight to the death until there is only one survivor - cat guardians are led astray and left to contemplate solutions that aren't typically supported by modern science.
The time is meow to set the record straight and get down to the WTF? (it doesn't mean what you think it means) of cat behavior and aggression. Are cats actually aloof creatures that merely tolerate our presence, and manipulate our minds? Or, has society contributed to our perception of cats and their behavior? Does the language we use to describe cat behavior in professional settings impact perceptions, expectations, and outcomes of treatment? How does pain, choice, motivation, and enrichment factor into behavioral wellness? Grab a glass of catbernet, and get up to speed on the latest buzzzzzz during episode 7 of the Behavior Buzzzzzz with 2 Amys veterinary behavior podcast. May the odds be ever in your favor.

The unregulated training industry has left the door wide open for unqualified imposters, posing as experts, to deceive pet parents and veterinarians alike.

19 Oct 2024

In this episode, the Amys tackle the state of veterinary behavior medicine education in North America with their colleague, Dr. Chris Pachel, DACVB.

Working in the pet behavior field isn't always rainbows and unicorns. Instead, sometimes it involves the Rainbow Bridge. This topic is often misunderstood and stigmatized as the dark side of behavior. However, in science and in life, it is essential we refrain from drawing conclusions or placing blame without weighing facts and exploring varying points of view. One perspective is that the practice of euthanasia is a painless and humane way of releasing a pet from their suffering when all other means have been exhausted, and can be considered a compassionate and selfless gift.
Join The Amys and their extra special guest, researcher, and applied animal behaviorist, Miranda Hitchcock, co-founder of Every Dog Austin Behavior & Training, for a heart to heart discussion about this sensitive, but necessary topic. Learn about the most common reasons or considerations for behavioral euthanasia, and how to best support those faced with difficult decisions in challenging times. Ā

You know what they say... If it's on the internet, then it must be true! Well, sorry to bee a buzzzzzz kill, but, thereās A LOT of fake news in the world.

So, how can one attempt to cut through the noise and separate fact from fiction?
Join the Amys and their brilliant guest, Dr. Erica Feuerbacher ā professor, researcher, and applied animal behavior extraordinaire ā for a closer look at what makes research valuable and valid.
