Dr. Sophia Yin's
Low Stress Handling^® and Behavior Modification of Dogs and Cats

The new edition of Low Stress Handling^® is an invaluable resource for anyone involved in animal care. The information is written in a way that is understandable for all levels of veterinary care givers and the resources available are extraordinarily helpful. This book should be required reading for all who wish to further expand their understanding of animal behavior and appropriate handling. Low Stress Handling^® should be included in the resource library of all practitioners and veterinary schools. Highly recommend!

This edition of Low Stress Handling^® is an excellent continuation of Sophia’s legacy principles, with more in-depth information on the science behind low stress handling, and advancements in the tools and techniques to ensure safe and effective handling of the dogs and cats in our care. Dr. Yin’s original work was revolutionary; the second edition of Low Stress Handling^® is just as inclusive, innovative and instructional! A must read for veterinary professionals!

This book is the premier one-stop-shopping experience for professionals and dog lovers alike. It has everything you need to both understand and implement evidence-based techniques for happy, confident and behaviorally healthy dogs. Readers should expect detailed and user-friendly explanations of learning and behavior change, inspiring individual case studies, loads of tips for ensuring a comfortable and successful experience at the vet, and so much more. I am honored to be included as a training resource in this book.
