Moving Beyond Diagnosis in Dog Behaviour
This course provides an introduction to the current framework available when making diagnoses for dogs with behavioural problems. In the first part, this webinar explores some of the practical strengths and weaknesses of using a diagnostic approach. Following this, Daniel goes on to introduce the process of formulation, which is primarily used in the human psychology field as either an alternative or in conjunction with the diagnostic approach. Specifically, Daniel introduces some prominent aproaches to fomulation and explains how these can be used in the dog behaviour world.
