In contrast, we understand ‘welfare’ as reserved for members of society marginalised, dependent on the welfare state, often in poverty and suffering from chronic ill health. In contrast, our patient’s ‘welfare’ is defined by the Government’s Animal Welfare Laws and mandated by the RCVS. This is the yardstick used in our pet-friendly practice schemes. If you’re participating in such a scheme, you are missing an opportunity here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOver the last decade, the transformation in the way we approach chronic pain in companion animals (e.g. osteoarthritis), and the importance of owner participation in its management (pain-scoring etc.), has been remarkable. In a similar vein, I will show you how you can transform from a welfare-centric to a wellbeing-centric practice and how this can help with better communication with clients and their bonding to the practice. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand the gulf between welfare and wellbeing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand how to educate and empower your clients in adopting a wellbeing approach.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnderstand how you can incorporate this approach into your practice.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers__title\"\u003eSpeakers:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers__speaker\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers__speaker__image\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers__speaker__name\"\u003eRobert Falconer-Taylor, BVetMed DipCABT MRCVS, Self-Employed Consultant\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers__speaker\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__speakers__speaker__name\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__image--label\"\u003eDelivered by:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"m-seminar-entry__item__image\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/taskfilescsm.s3.amazonaws.com\/uploads\/speaker_thumb\/2025-06-0509%253A15%253A15162105-Petremedy.jpg\" alt=\"The missing piece of ‘friendly’ in your pet-friendly practice\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"London Vet Show 2025","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56663783145845,"sku":null,"price":19.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0102\/9989\/9959\/files\/Untitleddesign_11_fb4c87ad-b132-40dd-b06e-82d4e2dad144.png?v=1769680597","url":"https:\/\/academy.vetshow.com\/products\/the-missing-piece-of-friendly-in-your-pet-friendly-practice-lvs25","provider":"Vet Show Academy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
