Description

Rabbit and rodent owners are looking for specialized professionals capable of correctly caring for their animals in the event of possible pathologies"

##IMAGE##

The rise in popularity of rabbits and rodents as pets is due, in part, to the gentle and intelligent nature of these animals, as well as the low demand for attention required by owners who, despite this, are rewarded with affection comparable to that which they would receive from traditional pets such as dogs and cats.

The great diversity of species included in this group requires advanced specialization. The objective of this postgraduate certificate is to lay the foundations to be able to work with exotic animals in a specialized clinic.

Rabbits and rodents are the third most frequently seen pets in veterinary clinics for various health problems. The most common diseases of these animals acquired as pets are intestinal and dental, as well as parasitic, dermatological and cardiorespiratory diseases. Many of these pathologies are a consequence of the owners' lack of knowledge about the needs of these mammals with respect to diet, basic care or deworming.

As it is an online postgraduate certificate, the student is not constrained by fixed schedules or the need to move to another physical location, but can access the contents at any time of the day, balancing their work or personal life with their academic life as they wish.
