See behaviour differently – as a vital sign, not a verdict.
Join us to gain the clinical tools to refine diagnostics, improve decision-making, and work together as a whole-clinic team, where every role contributes to behavioural wellbeing and better outcomes.
The program features a three-day conference plus an intensive two-day practical masterclass for a small group of participants — offering hands-on experience and personalised guidance.
We’re delighted to welcome international keynote speakers Gonçalo da Graça Pereira (Portugal) and Shana Gilbert-Gregory (USA), together with an impressive line-up of local experts — Gabby Carter, Isabelle Resch, Jacqui Ley, Sally Nixon, Kersti Seksel, Bronwen Bollaert and Rachel Basa— who will share their expertise through engaging lectures, interactive discussions, and practical insights.
Across the 5-days, the program explores the following topics:
- See differently – Integrating behaviour as a multidisciplinary and holistic discipline
- When training is trauma – Training myths and behaviour modification in the young
- Puppy culture and the myth of resilience – Neurodevelopment and spotting red flags
- Is it gut or grief – The interplay of gastrointestinal health and behaviour
- Strategies to manage client and clinician fatigue for chronic cases
- What are we missing – Why are cats underrepresented in behaviour referral practice?
- Bitten by pain – When aggression is the symptom and not the problem
- What if the problem is on the other end of the leash? Understanding human psychology and the client–animal bond
