Behavior and Training Guidance
Helping You Understand and Support Your Pet’s Behavior Needs
Behavior plays a big role in your pet’s overall well-being. Whether you’re welcoming a new puppy or kitten, navigating adolescent challenges, or noticing changes in an adult or senior pet, our team is here to help you understand what your pet is trying to communicate.
At Glastonbury Veterinary Hospital, we take the time to listen to you and to your pet. By pairing medical insight with practical training guidance, we help families build stronger, more confident relationships with their companions.
Common Behaviors We Can Help With
- House-training and litter box habits
- Socialization for puppies and kittens
- Anxiety, stress, or fear-based behavior
- Changes in behavior related to age or health
- Excessive barking, vocalization, or destructive behaviors
- Introducing new pets or new family routines
We always start with a gentle conversation to understand what you’re seeing at home and what may be contributing to your pet’s behavior.
Behavior is communication. Our job is to help you understand what your pet is telling you.
