What is CARAT?
Developed by Suzanne Clothier in 2007, CARAT (Clothier Animal Response Assessment Tool) is a novel assessment system that categorizes behavior traits in multiple components that are intuitive and practical. CARAT looks at these main categories and specifics of temperament traits to build an assessment:
- CORE: Arousal, Resilience, Energy
- SOCIAL: Sociability, Social Tolerance, Social Use of Space
- SENSORY: Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic, Olfactory
- PERSISTENCE: Visual, Auditory, Kinesthetic, Olfactory, Predatory/Chase
- INTERACTIVE: Patience, Biddability w/Familiar, Biddability w/Stranger
- COMPLEX TRAITS: Social Confidence, Environmental Confidence, Self Modulation
CARAT is a must-have tool for any serious animal professional who is involved in assessing behavior.
Whether you are a trainer, a behaviorist, a breeder, a veterinarian, in rescue/shelter work, or involved in service dog organizations, CARAT can open a new world of observation and understanding.
