BVNA launches online pet behaviour hub
The hub's first monthly topic is how veterinary nurses can pursue an interest in animal behaviour.
The resources will support members to learn more about animal behaviour.

A new online hub on animal behaviour has been launched for members of the British Veterinary Nursing Association (BVNA).

The forum, available through the BVNA member portal, provides a space for veterinary nurses to share resources and discuss topics around pet behaviour.

There will be monthly topics on the forum as well as general discussions. The topic for the first month is how veterinary nurses can pursue an interest in animal behaviour. The hub will also signpost further training and CPD resources.

The project is designed to complement BVNA’s ongoing collaboration with the Animal Behaviour and Training Council. Since 2022, the two organisations have offered a Learning Pathway in Behaviour CPD course to provide foundational knowledge of pet behaviour.

Nikki McLeod, BVNA honorary treasurer and Behaviour Hub project lead, said: "Knowledge of animal behaviour is essential to our role as veterinary nurses, plus the wider veterinary team too. Having this understanding has an enormous positive impact on the emotional wellbeing of our patients while in our care.

“However, we also know that it can be tricky to find accessible, reliable sources of information and advice surrounding pet behaviour. BVNA is therefore delighted to launch the Behaviour Hub as a brand-new resource and membership benefit to BVNA members.

“This will provide the opportunity to discuss anything related to behaviour, in a constructive and supportive forum - and importantly, tailored to meet the needs of veterinary nurses. We invite members to be part of the conversation.”
