The Fellowship of Animal Behaviour Clinicians (FABC) is a professional body which nurtures the well-being of, and relationships between, animals and their caregivers by promoting best practice in the field of evidence-based clinical animal behaviour.

It provides a resource for Veterinary Surgeons who may wish to refer a client and their animal, as well as to caregivers seeking empathetic help, advice and information regarding the behaviour of their animals.

The Fellowship of Animal Behaviour Clinicians recognises the importance of strong links between the clinical animal behaviour and veterinary communities, and promotes this accordingly.

It supports the ongoing development of independently accredited clinical animal behaviourists and those working towards independent accreditation through mentoring, supportive fellowship and continued professional development. Expert CPD, as provided by the Fellowship of Animal Behaviour Clinicians, is also made available to veterinary professionals.

The Fellowship of Animal Behaviour Clinicians promotes the highest standards of practice in clinical animal behaviour and supports independent accreditation of clinical animal behaviourists. In the UK, this means we conform to standards set by by CCAB Certification and the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (RCVS). FAB Clinicians work in collaboration with Veterinary Surgeons so that any known or potential links between behaviour and pathology are incorporated into behaviour evaluations and treatment plans. As well as being ethical, treatment plans are therefore based on best practice and scientific evidence.
