Pregnant With Pets:
A Seminar for Expecting Parents with Pets
“Set your WHOLE family up to
succeed
when your new baby
arrives!”
Dr. Feltes earned her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine for The Ohio State University in 2006. Upon moving back to the Cleveland area, she married her husband in July 2006 and became a mother in August 2007. At that time, a pet owner of 5 dogs, 1 cat, and a Thoroughbred, (all of whom are behaviorally challenged), Dr. Feltes developed her own behavior modification plan to integrate her son successfully.
As the owner of The Behavior Clinic; Animal Behavior of Northeast Ohio, a practice limited to veterinary behavior, Dr. Feltes often sees cases of aggression to children and realized the need for prevention. She has decided to share her behavior modification plan with others.Pet owners will learn steps to help companion animals adjust to the arrival of a newborn into their family.
Due to the birth of Dr. Feltes' second son, future PWP Seminars will soon be offered on our new Webinar Platform through the Store link above! The webinar is designed to minimize the uncertainty surrounding how to best integrate the new baby with the beloved family pets. Keep checking back often to schedule. However, if you are in need of immediate counseling due to an impending birth- please contact our receptionist, Diane, as soon as possible!
