Veterinarians and behaviorists now collaborate to treat conditions like separation anxiety, noise phobia, and compulsive disorders. While a trainer works on modifying the animal's response to triggers, a veterinarian may prescribe SSRIs (selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors) or anxiolytics to raise the threshold of reactivity.
