South Texas Veterinary Behavior Service (STVBS) is a referral service dedicated strictly to the diagnosis and treatment of behavior problems in animals. STVBS is the only veterinary behavior referral practice in the greater Houston area. STVBS was opened in October 2007 by Dr. Lore I. Haug. Dr. Haug is the only full time board certified veterinary behaviorist in Texas and the surrounding states. STVBS’s goal is to assist you in understanding your pets and developing a more compassionate, harmonious relationship with them. Even normal animal behavior can pose a serious strain on the quality of your relationship with your pet. STVBS will see any behavior problem from any species. While Dr. Haug sees primarily dogs and cats, she also can assist with behavior issues for horses, birds and other species. Common problems include aggression, separation anxiety, storm/noise phobia, compulsive disorders, and unruliness. Some animals may also be afflicted with true neurophysiologic or neurodevelopmental problems such as hyperkinesis or impulse control disorders. A large portion of the caseload consists of dogs with aggression disorders. While aggression is a serious problem, no patient should be considered hopeless. While some dogs pose great risks for rehabilitation, every patient merits an evaluation by a qualified professional before heartbreaking and potentially inappropriate decisions are made. Appointments are available on weekdays and some Saturdays. House calls are also available.
