Dr. Marty Becker: Q & A with "America's Veterinarian"
Webinar Link
Ever wonder about your dog's mental health? Feeding the mind is just as important as feeding the body. Join us for a Q&A with "America's Veterinarian" Dr. Marty Becker to learn more about in-home enrichment and how to make trips to the vet less stressful (dare we say fun?). Dr. Becker will walk us through his Fear Free initiative, how it was founded and its goals, and take questions from the audience.
Dr. Becker graduated from Washington State University's College of Veterinary Medicine. He says, "I went to veterinary school to become a dairy practitioner, but after listening to an amazing introductory talk from Dean Leo Bustad about the human-animal bond, I switched to a companion animal focus the first hour of the first day of veterinary school." He spent the next four decades practicing veterinary medicine in Idaho (owning or co-owning several hospitals), lecturing to veterinarians on six continents, teaching as an adjunct professor at three colleges of veterinary medicine, writing 25 books (selling over eight million copies with three New York Times bestsellers), his most recent being From Fearful to Fear Free: A Positive Program to Free Your Dog from Anxiety, Fears, and Phobias, which he co-authored with Dr. Lisa Radosta, Dr. Wailani Sung, and Mikkel Becker. In 2016, he co-founded Fear Free, whose mission is to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress in pets by inspiring and educating the people who care for them.
