I have long been fascinated by pet behavior and after several years in general practice, decided to make it my professional specialty. I have had a referral practice for behavioral problems in companion animals since 1982. Located in St. Louis, my practice is Veterinary Behavior Consultations, a referral practice for behavior problems in companion animals.
I regularly lecture about pet behavior and have addressed the North American Veterinary Conference, the American Animal Hospital Association's annual meeting, the American Veterinary Medical Association Annual Convention, and the British Small Animal Veterinary Association. In 1999, I was chosen Technician Speaker of the Year at the North American Veterinary Conference. I have also been invited by several local and national radio and TV programs to give advice to their audiences about pet behavior.
I enjoy writing about companion animal behavior, too. I have contributed to the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association (JAVMA), Veterinary Forum, Breeders Forum, Purina Today's Breeder, and several books for pet owners.
I'm currently the president-elect of the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists, a specialty board for behavior in veterinary medicine. I also serve on the advisory board of Veterinary Forum magazine.
I received my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Michigan State University College of Veterinary Medicine and hold specialty board certification from the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists. |

| Do not be tempted to give chicken bones to your cat. She may very well be able to handle the small bones of a rodent, but chicken bones pose a distinct hazard. Their tendency to splinter can cause gastrointestinal perforation and obstruction. |
