For decades, veterinary medicine and animal behavior operated in silos. Veterinarians focused almost exclusively on the physiology, pathology, and surgery of the animal. Meanwhile, behaviorists and trainers handled obedience, aggression, and psychological conditioning.

The intersection of behavior and science is not one-size-fits-all. A veterinary professional must understand species-specific ethology.
Veterinary science has identified a growing list of behavioral problems that are frequently rooted in physical disease. Recognizing these patterns is essential for accurate diagnosis.
Perhaps the most tangible merger of animal behavior and veterinary science is the . Founded by Dr. Marty Becker, this initiative takes the science of animal learning theory (classical and operant conditioning) and applies it directly to the examination room.
Behavior is also the first indicator of neurological decline. Consider a senior dog who starts circling the kitchen island three times before lying down. Many owners dismiss this as a quirk. A veterinary behaviorist sees a potential lesion in the forebrain or the onset of Canine Cognitive Dysfunction (dog dementia).

This approach failed animals on two fronts.
