What animals can be evaluated?
Dogs, cats, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, birds, miniature pigs, and llamas and alpacas.
Leading up to the day of your evaluation, there are a few key things you need to do first:
Bring the Right Paperwork – You’ll need to provide your evaluator with a completed Handler’s Questionnaire, proof of your pet’s rabies vaccination (if applicable for their species) or a copy of your completed Animal Health Screening Form. New teams must bring their Course Certificate from the Pet Partners Handler Course; renewing teams can bring their latest team acceptance letter.
Check that Your Equipment is Approved – Your pet’s leash, collar, harness, halter, or carrier must be on the Pet Partners’ Acceptable Equipment List. This makes sure that they are safe, comfortable, and compliant with Pet Partners policy. Any equipment listed as unacceptable will not be allowed in the evaluation.
Don’t Forget to Groom – Your pet must be clean and well-groomed before every visit, so the same is true for the evaluation! Make a great first impression and ensure a comfortable experience for everyone involved. Brush their coat, feathers, or fur, trim their nails, hooves, or claws, and make sure their ears, eyes, and beak (if they have one) are clean.
Dress Comfortably and Professionally – Wear closed-toed shoes and comfortable clothing that allows you to interact with your animal easily. Avoid anything that could distract your pet or get in the way, like dangling jewelry.
Practice, Practice, Practice – Taking time to practice your skills before the test is the best way to ready yourself and your pet. Review your Handler Guide and the information from the Handler Course and read on in this post to find more tips to be prepared!
