Three Oaks Animal Behavior Counseling

Karen Holman is an animal behavior consultant in Oklahoma, focusing on animal behavior issues. Her graduate education was a science based curriculum, and her approach reflects the ethology of the species of animal, addressing all types of animal problems from minor concerns to more complicated issues.

The goal of Three Oaks Animal Behavior Counseling is to help pet owners experience an improvement in their pet’s behavior, leading to a stronger human-animal bond that will last fur-ever.

All animals are unique and their problems are no different. There are not always simple solutions or cookie cutter answers to your pet’s bad behavior. There are often multiple, underlying causes and getting to the root of these triggers can take time and patience. Each case is a unique challenge and the treatment plan is designed to specifically address the concerns that you and your pet are experiencing. With over 35 years of teaching experience, Karen’s ability to relate to all ages in a clear, educating manner will help you understand and effectively carry out the individualized treatment plan.
