The Workshop is designed to provide participants with an opportunity to problem-solve through real live cases (you will see, there is no such thing as a normal dog and you can find something to work on in most any canine patient!). Participants learn to assess and develop treatment plans for a multitude of dogs provided for the class. This class can go any direction you want, and cover small or large topics as desired.
