&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;QUESTIONS&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol class="wikiextraspace"&gt;
&lt;li&gt;In order to prevent chaos in the waiting room, what are the 2 most important rules that clients must obey when bringing their pet into the veterinary surgery? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A client telephones the surgery for an appointment, but informs you that his dog is aggressive. What common sense advice would you offer prior to their visit to the practice? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Having advised the client in Q2 accordingly, what vital step should then be taken to avoid risk to the veterinary surgeon and other personnel? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A very aggressive dog is admitted for surgery. The premedicant is administered with the assistance of the owner. Once this starts to take effect and the dog becomes a little calmer, you are to take the patient through to the hospital kennels. Describe your actions. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Who is liable if an animal bites the owner during a veterinary consultation? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;List restraining aids for the handling of aggressive dogs. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;List the types of muzzle available, and state the type most suitable for use in practice. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is the main disadvantage of the nylon &amp;quot;Mikki&amp;quot; muzzle? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;List restraining aids for the handling of aggressive cats. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Why are cat bites a particular risk? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A client arrives at the surgery carrying a loose cat. The cat subsequently escapes. Who is liable? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;List the ways in which you would reassure a hospitalised patient prior to handling. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Describe ways in which a tablet could be administered to an uncooperative cat. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;At what age should a puppy begin its training? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What is the most influential age of a dog&amp;#39;s life? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;What basic obedience exercises should be taught to a puppy? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;By what age should a puppy be able to walk to heel? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Describe &amp;quot;positive reinforcement&amp;quot; &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;A client telephones the surgery. Her 10 week old puppy is driving her to despair.he has chewed 2 doorframes, is urinating and defecating all over the house and upsets the neighbours by howling when she goes out. What advice would you give? &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;List training aids suitable for dogs. &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
