Supporting pain management in rescue dogs with Dr. Hannah Capon

This week we are talking about pain management and shelter dogs, we look at how we can identify pain in dogs in our care, make changes to support painful dogs and working along side veterinary professionals to best help dogs who maybe in pain or discomfort.

Pain has a large negative effect on welfare and dog behaviour, so we are really grateful to Dr. capon for joining us and all the work Dr, C and her team do with canine arthritis management.

Remember! The amazing CAM team are offering rescue and shelter dog adopters free access to the owners course, to give dogs being adopted out with painful conditions the best opportunity.
