RACE APPROVED: 1.0 Hours for Vet Techs & Vets
The Importance of Proper Husbandry for Exotics Patients
(RACE 1.0 hrs)
Husbandry, as we know, is a major component of any pet’s well being and longevity. We know the basics of our more popular canine and feline companions, but understanding the complexities of exotics husbandry can be challenging for most pet owners. It is essential for veterinary staff working with this species to have a solid knowledge base of the husbandry requirements to educate clients. Not only is this useful for educating clients, but it is also important to understand how a lack of these requirements can result in certain disease processes.
