SUMMARY:Webinar - 2/25/21 - Your Aging Dog Wants To Do More Than You Think—And Will Thrive For It! with Lori Stevens - Dog iBox (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will provide practical information for everyone living with older dogs. You will no longer be a passive bystander watching your dog age. You will be introduced to how to keep aging dogs engaged with you and the environment. We’ll cover how to help them be more active and functional. You’ll learn what you can do to support your dog’s aging process and help them regain strength and confidence. This information is empowering in an area where we often feel helpless. Applying these techniques will make life easier for your aging dog. It will also make caring for them easier\, more joyful\, and enriching for both of you. \nAs dogs age\, they slow down just as we do. They typically lose hind-end strength and proprioception. Mental and sensory functioning often decline as well. As the aging process continues\, many dogs lose the ability to function in life’s daily activities\, e.g. going up and down stairs. This loss can be due to a variety of factors\, which we will cover some of. One example is muscle weakness. Weak muscles can be strengthened by doing simple exercises resulting in older dogs being able to function again. This webinar will cover exercises as well as other useful tools and techniques specifically for supporting older dogs. \nWEBSITE LINK:  https://www.dog-ibox.com/market/catalog/live-webinars/live-webinars-english-c-34/your-aging-dog.html

SUMMARY:Webinar - 2/25/21 - Introduction to RAT (Relationship Assessment Tool) - Suzanne Clothier (fee applies)
DESCRIPTION:Take one person\, add one dog\, and you get a third entity: the relationship between the person and the dog. Successful and humane training needs to include the relationship as the dynamic ground on which skills\, behavior changes and improvements can take root. Join live or watch the recording at your convenience for an introduction to RAT™: Relationship Assessment Tool. Developed by Suzanne Clothier\, RAT™ provides a new perspective on understanding of the dog/human relationship. \nRAT™ can be used to: \n\nAssess what is contributing to behavior\, training and/or performance challenges\nIdentifying the strengths & weaknesses of the relationship\nAssess suitability for a purpose\, such as therapy dog team\, AAI/AAT\nAssess for best match adoptions or placements o Identify handler skills (ideal for training staff & volunteers)\nTrack changes and improvements over time\n\nIn each relationship\, the handler brings his/her habits\, personalities\, needs and style to interact with the dog\, who also brings his/her own personality\, patterns of response\, needs and style. With an emphasis on patterns of behaviors found on both ends of the leash\, RAT is a powerful tool for assessing the dynamics of the dog/human relationship. \nFor those who work with training issues and behavior problems\, RAT™ clearly identifies the strengths and weaknesses of any dog/handler team. Practical and effective\, RAT™leads to Training Triage & Plan for a customized approach that addresses & supports the specific needs of that dog/handler relationship. \nPLEASE NOTE: – All webinars will be recorded and a link will be sent to you 48 hours after the completion of the webinar for you to access the recording. – If you need CEUs for IAABC or PPAB\, instructions on how to get them will be given during the webinar. – If this is your first time using GoToWebinar\, they offer a test webinar so you can trouble shoot ahead of time.
