Despite low reported rates of veterinary clients\u2019 adherence with dietary recommendations, little is known about how clients\u2019 resistance to nutritional proposals is managed in the talk of veterinary consultations. This conversation-analytic study investigated clients\u2019 active resistance to veterinarians\u2019 proposals for long-term changes to cats\u2019 and dogs\u2019 diets in 23 segments from 21 videotaped appointments in Ontario, Canada. Clients\u2019 accounts suggested the proposals themselves or nutritional modifications were unnecessary, inappropriate, or unfeasible, most often based on patients\u2019 food preferences, multi-pet feeding issues, current use of equivalent strategies, or current enactment of the proposed changes. Resistance arose when veterinarians constructed proposals without first gathering relevant diet- and patient-related information, soliciting clients\u2019 perspectives, or educating them about the benefits of recommended changes. Veterinarians subsequently accommodated clients\u2019 concerns more often when resistance involved patient- or client-related issues rather than clients\u2019 lack of medical knowledge. The design of subsequent proposals accepted by clients frequently replaced dietary changes in the initial proposals with nutritional or non-nutritional alternatives and oriented to uncertainty about adherence. This study provides evidence-based findings for developing effective communication training and practice guidelines in nutritional assessment and shared decision-making.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/ani13132150","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,30]],"date-time":"2023-06-30T00:51:06Z","timestamp":1688086266000},"page":"2150","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":7,"title":["Conversation Analysis of Clients\u2019 Active Resistance to Veterinarians\u2019 Proposals for Long-Term Dietary Change in Companion Animal Practice in Ontario, Canada"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-7199-6574","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Clare","family":"MacMartin","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Family Relations and Applied Nutrition, University of Guelph, 50 Stone Road East, Guelph, ON N1G 2W1, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3211-6254","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Hannah","family":"Wheat","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Community and Primary Care Research Group, Faculty of Health, University of Plymouth, Plymouth PL4 8AA, Devon, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jason B.","family":"Coe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Population Medicine, University of Guelph, 50 Stone Road East, Guelph, ON N1G 2W1, Canada"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,6,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"285","DOI":"10.5326\/0460285","article-title":"AAHA nutritional assessment guidelines for dogs and cats","volume":"46","author":"Baldwin","year":"2010","journal-title":"J.
