Triangular communication structures in healthcare settings of ten involve patients\, healthcare professionals\, and an additional caregi ver (e.g. in paediatric settings). These triangular communication structur es are particularly complex in veterinary consultations as they involve no t only the pet owner and veterinarian but also the pet itself (which is no t expected to verbally contribute but whose presence nevertheless influenc es the interaction in complex ways). \;

Drawing on audio and v ideo recordings of veterinary consultations recorded in UK small animal cl inics\, this PhD project first uses thematic coding to examine how pets ar e linguistically included and addressed during different stages of the con sultation stages\, to then analyse the pragmatic functions of such inclusi on. In a next step\, this project utilises discourse analysis to focus on the relational work and identity construction in triangular communication structures involving client\, veterinarian and the pet.

In these i nteractions\, the pet emerges as a social subject rather than a purely med ical object\, where various identities are co-constructed for the pet as p art of the consultation discourse. \; The inclusions of the pet by vet erinarians forms part of their professional repertoire while constantly ma naging the relationship with their clients.
