Dealing with a gelding who started life as an orphaned foal and became very difficult to handle

£12.50

Description

Presented by Anna Haines.

Anna will be discussing a complex case involving a gelding who started life as an orphaned foal and became very difficult to handle.

The gelding displayed aggressive behaviours towards handlers, which had caused physical injuries, reared when handled, struck out at handlers, performed unwanted chewing behaviours on objects and people, and chased people in the field. A primary goal of this case was to make it safer for people to handle him. Euthanasia was a consideration if his behaviour could not be modified, for the safety of his handlers. This was a complex, long-term case requiring considerable ongoing support.

During the webinar, Anna will discuss relevant history, differential diagnosis, the behaviour modification programme, and the outcome of the case.
