Dealing with a recently purchased mare who exhibited challenging behaviour when her owner tried to put on her bridle

Description

Presented by Jenni Nellist.

Jenni will be discussing a case involving a recently purchased mare who exhibited challenging behaviour when her owner tried to put on her bridle.

In addition to the bridling issue, the mare also presented with intermittent box walking and weaving when stabled, and the vet struggled to examine her due to her apparent fear of men. This case provides an example of how liaising with the referring vet throughout behaviour modification increases the likelihood of further successful veterinary examination and treatment, whilst working towards the owner’s goals and aspirations.

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