Choice and cooperative care are useful topics to bring into a rehabilitation conversation. Ask how the team introduces handling, what they want to learn about your dog’s preferences and how they will discuss participation with you throughout the visit.

Your dog’s history matters here: familiar routines, previous experiences and the way you usually communicate together. This article introduces questions rather than a training protocol. An individual discussion can help clarify what is appropriate for your dog and the clinical task.

Take into your next conversation

  • Ask how handling and activities will be introduced.
  • Share your dog’s familiar routines and preferences.
  • Discuss participation in the context of the clinical appointment.
