Who I Am & Why It Matters

I'm Dr Glenn Tobiansky, a registered veterinarian with 30+ years veterinary experience and specialized qualifications in animal behaviour.

My work is now focused entirely on behavioural medicine, with formal post-graduate training and membership in the Behaviour Chapter of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists.

I'm also a Certified Training Partner through the Karen Pryor Academy — reflecting my commitment to humane, science-based training methods.

This unique blend of veterinary knowledge and behaviour expertise means I approach every case with clinical precision and a deep understanding of learning and emotional health. I deliver practical, lasting results while supporting both pets and families — without judgement or jargon.

My Core Principles & Philosophy

I base my work on current scientific research into how dogs and cats learn, think, and experience emotions. This means understanding their natural behaviours, social structures, and cognitive abilities — not making assumptions based on outdated theories or anthropomorphism.

Humane, Force-Free Training Methods

I exclusively use positive reinforcement-based training with clicker training as my primary tool. This means:

No choke chains, prong collars, or shock collars
Focus on teaching new skills, not punishing behaviour
No intimidation or “dominance” methods
Builds your pet's trust and confidence

Rational Use of Medication

As a veterinarian, I have access to behavioural medications, but I use them strategically:

Medication is a tool, not a cure
Used when an animal's emotional state prevents them from learning
Always combined with behaviour modification, never used alone
Prescribed with clear goals and timelines
Regularly reviewed and adjusted as needed

Individual Tailoring

While my principles remain consistent, every pet and family is unique. I adapt my approach based on:

Your pet's personality, age, and history
Your family's dynamics and capabilities
Environmental constraints and opportunities
Cultural considerations and personal preferences
Progress rate and individual response to interventions
