Episode 115 – 15-minute Speed Coaching with Kseniia Oliinykova Welcome to another 15-minute Speed Coaching Session for Veterinary and Pet Care Professionals! The rules of the game are as follows: · Episodes will be in-the-moment, off-the-cuff and unscripted. · Coaching sessions will be 15 Minutes MAXIMUM, so wherever we finish, we finish… · Which means that we might not find complete resolution to your question, but we will certainly get the thought process started! In this episode, I chat to veterinary Behaviourist, Kseniia Oliinykova, who is doing an incredible job at supporting her patients and clients in a currently war-torn Ukraine. These patients are facing such unique and extreme exposures and challenges, that the normal rules simply don't apply. Have a listen as we chat about creating good sleep hygiene and health, medications that may help in these situations, how to think outside the box and how to come up with solutions that are not found in any textbook. I am so in awe of the resilience and determination, love and empathy that Kseniia shows to her patients and clients and it just reinforces the fact that we can all do more to help on a global scale. If you would like to get in touch with Kseniia directly, here is her Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/pet_cltr?igsh=M2tienV3b3pvMmds&utm_source=qr And here is her email address: pet.cltr@gmail.com I would love to record a "round-table style" episode on the topic of PTSD in our pets and how we can support in some of these unprecedented situations, so if you are a vet, veterinary behaviourist, allied professional or human healthcare professional interested in joining in on this conversation, please email us at info@trinityvetbehaviour.com and hopefully we can get a really interesting conversation started in the new year !

Episode 114 – Hyperactivity – HSHA - Hyperkinesis This is quite a big episode and a very interesting topic - definitely one that I am hearing more conversations and questions about. In this episode, I will talk about the "classification" of hyperactivity – what it is, what it is not, the differential diagnoses that need to be considered before declaring a diagnosis of hyperactivity or hyperkinesis and how to actually narrow down that diagnosis. I talk about a wonderful document that was designed by Dr Karen Overall and her team, which addresses some of the differential diagnoses and their corresponding behavioural signs - see the document here: https://vth.upei.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/Behaviour-Tips_Active-dogs_final.pdf And, I discuss treatment protocols and psychopharmacological interventions that can be used to help these patients. Please see here the paper by Dr Stephane Bleuer-Elsner that I mention in the podcast: Bleuer-Elsner, S., Muller, G., Beata, C., Zamansky, A. and Marlois, N., 2021. Effect of fluoxetine at a dosage of 2-4 mg/kg daily in dogs exhibiting hypersensitivity-hyperactivity syndrome, a retrospective study. Journal of Veterinary Behavior, 44, pp.25-31. If you would like additional support for one of your Behaviour Cases, then you can book a 30-minute Vet-Vet or Vet-Pet Care Professional Consultation with me right here: https://calendly.com/trinityvet/teams-and-professionals If you can't find an appointment time to suit you, please email us at info@trinityvetbehaviour.com to find a time that suits us both!

Episode 113 – Equine Behaviour Medicine with Dr Gemma Pearson Wow, wow, wow, what a great episode and, obviously, a topic that, as an owner of 2 Sports Horses, is so very close to my heart. Dr Gemma Pearson is a truly inspiring individual who has carved out an impressive career niche in Equine Veterinary Behaviour Medicine. This has allowed her to make an incredible difference in the equestrian sports world and massively improve the welfare and wellbeing of so many horses. In this episode, we chat about what initially sparked Gemma's interest in Equine Behaviour Medicine, how she was able to build an Equine Behaviour Service during her residency at Edinburgh University and some of the incredible cases that she has encountered during her career. We also chat about her PhD, the use of psychopharmacology (and its limitations) in equine patients and Gemma's great work with BEVA on the "Don't Break Your Vet" campaign and the "Hold Your Horses" course. If you love horses this will be a truly inspiring episode to listen to, and even if you're not a horse person, but love hearing about inspirational stories and Veterinary Behaviour Medicine in general, this is an episode not to miss! Here is the link to the "Hold Your Horses" course: https://www.beva.org.uk/News/Latest-News/Details/Hold-Your-Horses-the-low-stress-way-with-our-new-online-course And, you can find the "Don't Break Your Vet" campaign videos by searching for them on YouTube.

Episode 112 – Feline Human Directed Aggression Aggressive cats can be just as scary as aggressive dogs – to some people even more so as their body language may not be as easy to understand as that of dogs. Feline Human Directed Aggression can be difficult to pick apart and coming up with a diagnosis really requires a good understanding of feline behaviour. In this episode, I chat through my main list of differential diagnoses when approaching these cases and how I use feline body language and facial expressions to help guide my decision making. I talk about the most common physical health contributors to feline human directed aggression, how to differentiate between emotionally driven and predatory behaviours and how early life experiences, the physical and social environment and human-feline interactions can contribute to aggressive behaviours. If you would like to learn more about Feline Behaviour, then my "Learn To Speak Cat" course is a great resource for you: https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/learn-to-speak-cat If you'd like support with a Feline case, then you can book a 30-minute Vet-Vet or Vet-Pet Care Professional Consultation with me right here: https://calendly.com/trinityvet/teams-and-professionals If you can't find an appointment time to suit you, please email us at info@trinityvetbehaviour.com to find a time that suits us both!

Here are some of the things we chat about: 1. Medication choices that provide both a quick effect as well as longer lasting effects for potential re-homing scenarios. 2. How to manage some of the more highly aroused or aggressive dogs in a shelter setting. 3. Pain trials and GI screening protocols in the shelter.

Episode 108 – SSRIs versus TCAs This is where things start to get so interesting when it comes to Veterinary Psychopharmacology! Understanding the similarities and differences between medication classes – in this case the Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors and the Tricyclic Antidepressants is a crucial aspect when it comes to Behaviour Medications. There are actually a lot of similarities but also many differences and knowing these will help you make better medication choices, prevent problems by understanding contraindications and guide you in your decision-making process and build you confidence when choosing psychopharmacologic agents.

Episode 106 – Multi-Cat Households - Treating more than just the Patients Here in the UAE, I see many multi-cat households with behavioural presentations. These households can range from 2 to 32 (my biggest ever MCH!) cats and are hugely complex to understand, assess, evaluate and treat. If you know anything about feline behaviour, you know that cats are socially flexible, non-socially obligate, obsessed with resources and often unable to reconcile differences or hostile relationships with other cats. This can lead to a whole host of problems including undesirable elimination outside the litter box, inter-cat aggression and physical health manifestations of stress. In this episode I chat through my approach to large multi-cat households and how, even if the caregivers highlight only some specific cats in the household as showing problematic behaviours, I always consider the effect that these situations have on ALL the cats in the home. If you'd like to learn more about Feline Behaviour, then my "Learn To Speak Cat" course is an absolute must for you! https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/learn-to-speak-cat If you'd like to book a 30-minute Vet-Vet or Vet-Pet Care Professional Consultation with me, you can do that right here: https://calendly.com/trinityvet/teams-and-professionals If you can't find an appointment time to suit you, please email us at info@trinityvetbehaviour.com to find a time that suits us both!

In this episode, I chat to trainer and behaviourist, Sharon Jones, who has questions around managing barrier frustration in urgent situations, where we absolutely need Safety Management strategies in place, such as a baby joining the home or learning to crawl. We are often faced with situations where we need to manage safety but haven't yet got the tools in place to do so or where the dog becomes very frustrated at being confined or no longer being able to access high value areas of the home. Listen as we brainstorm the challenge of managing these cases and come up with a number of tools we could use while conditioning the dog to cope with barriers.

Episode 104 – Why Behaviour and Pain are Intertwined I had an incredible time at the WSAVA Congress in Rio and one of the things that I really took away as a musing from the Congress is the question as to whether or how we can differentiate pain from emotional states such as anxiety. We know that pain has an emotional component – often fear or anxiety – so do we therefore need to be more comprehensive in treating our painful patients by treating both pain and anxiety? I'm not sure we have all the answers yet and we definitely don't have any research looking at this, however, my suspicion is that we probably should be treating both! In this episode I give you my 3 top explanations of why pain and emotional state are so interwoven and intertwined and how I think about treating my Behaviour Patients that are also in pain! If you'd like to learn more about the medications that can treat both pain and emotional state, then have a look at my AMAZING PSYCHOACTIVE course: https://katrin-jahn.mykajabi.com/psychoactive And if you'd like some help or input on a Behaviour Patient that is also painful then you can book a 30-minute Vet-Vet or Vet-Pet Care Professional Consultation with me right here: https://calendly.com/trinityvet/teams-and-professionals If you can't find an appointment time to suit you, please email us at info@trinityvetbehaviour.com to find a time that suits us both!

In this episode, I chat to holistic groomer and aspiring behaviourist (currently with a behaviour certification), Victoria Shepherd, who has questions around communicating the possibility that her patients may be in pain to both the caregiver and the caregiver's vet. As pet professionals who spend a lot of time with their patients and put their hands on them A LOT, groomers often recognize signs of pain or discomfort. And communicating that to the caregiver and the GP vet can be challenging.

Episode 101 – Resilience in Dogs with Bobbie Bhambree I absolutely loved this conversation with the wonderful Bobbie Bhambree, Dog Trainer and Behaviourist, about her game-changing work around Resilience and Resilience Conditioning in dogs. Bobbie shares the story of how she and Veterinary Neuroscientist, Kathy Murphy, developed the Canine Resilience Rainbow, how it evolved and where it is now. She also shares the individual elements oaf the resilience framework and how they fit into her everyday practice. Bobbie shares some great case examples which show what a great difference resilience conditioning can make for our canine patients and has definitely inspired me to use this more in my own patients!

Episode 99 – Tanya and Bruno's Story This is one of my favourite patient- and client stories! From the beautiful island of Samos in Greece to Yas Island in Abu Dhabi, Bruno has had a very varied and sometimes challenging life. Tanya reached out to me when Bruno became increasingly sound sensitive after arriving in Abu Dhabi, to the point where he hid under a storage rack in the basement for 23 hours per day. After seeing Tanya and Bruno for an emergency consultation, I designed a comprehensive treatment plan for Bruno which includes psychopharmaceutical medications and comprehensively addressing his musculo-skeletal pain, which may have been the cause for the sudden deterioration in his behaviour. Listen as Tanya talks openly about how she and her husband navigated this journey and how Bruno is doing now! What an incredible episode to take us into our re-brand and re-launch into The Veterinary Behaviour Chat Podcast !

Episode 97 – Risk Assessment Comprehensively assessing the risk of a Behaviour Case can be one of the most important things to do when you are first presented with a patient. Whether you're a GP vet faced with a tricky situation, a Vet or Veterinary Nurse with an interest in Veterinary Behaviour Medicine, or a non-Veterinary Behaviour practitioner, it is always really good practice to perform a risk assessment and have an open conversation with the caregiver based on this risk assessment In this episode, I tell you my top 3 risks to assess against and give you 4 specific things to evaluate when it comes to assessing risk. Following these steps will give you so much more clarity when it comes to advising your clients on the risk – and safety aspects of their pet's behaviour.
