Our Dr. Martin and Dr. Young are not experts in dog and cat behavior problems. If your pet's behavior problem is serious or does not respond to the advice (behavior hand-outs) we have given you, please ask us to refer your pet to a veterinary behavior specialist.
We recommend Dr. Kenneth Martin in Austin. You can learn more about Veterinary Behavior Consultations and start the referral process at http://veterinarybehavior.com/. (click here)
If we have not already done complete blood counts and chemistries and a urinalysis on your pet, these will need to be done before the referral (about $200). Dogs over eighteen months old will also need a thyroid panel (about $110).
