Заключение

Нельзя переоценить важность ознакомления владельцев домашних животных с методами и информацией, которые им необходимы для правильного воспитания своих питомцев. Щенки и котята, которых вырастили теоретически подкованные хозяева, скорее всего, обнаружат надлежащее, приемлемое социальное поведение, у них вряд ли возникнут какие-либо поведенческие проблемы. Помогая этому своими советами, сотрудники ветеринарных клиник смогут установить длительные плодотворные отношения между семьей владельца, домашним животным и ветеринарной клиникой. В результате хозяин вырастит воспитанного питомца, имеющего прочные связи с членами семьи, а это означает, что животное останется в этой семье.
