Description

Veterinarians and veterinary nurses face animal welfare and animal ethics questions on a daily basis, sometimes without even realizing it. This webinar will examine these important areas, explain the differences between animal welfare, animal rights and animal ethics, and explore some common dilemmas that regularly confront veterinarians and their staff. Ethical questions have the potential to cause real angst, but understanding the processes involved in ethical reasoning can reduce negative feelings around such issues.
