Dr. McKeage, Fear Free Practitioner
At Fur Family Animal Hospital we work hard to create a low-stress environment for your pets. One of the ways we support this mission is that our veterinarian, Dr. McKeage, is a Fear Free certified professional.
What does it mean?
Fear Free states their initiative very plainly: "Our mission is to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress in pets by inspiring and educating the people who care for them."
How is Fur Family different?
A Fear Free approach to veterinary medicine is something Dr. McKeage takes seriously when caring for pets. We want you and your pets to have a positive experience and that can be as simple as offering treats, affection, and a calming tone throughout their visit to more sophisticated accommodations like frequency adjusted soothing music, ambient pheromones, and a comforting color palette throughout the hospital. Dr. McKeage's understanding and appreciation of Fear Free medicine has fundamentally shaped the way we provide veterinary care.
What do I do next?
We think your pet deserves a Fear Free experience the next time they go to the vet.
